Recovery of a triazole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus in respiratory specimen of COVID-19 patient in ICU – A case report

Medical Mycology Case Reports, 2021
Although invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is typically described in immunocompromised host, patient with severe influenzae can develop IPA. Similarly, patients with severe COVID-19 complicated with IPA are increasingly reported. Here, we describe a

A case of CNS aspergillosis in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia on first-line ibrutinib therapy

Medical Mycology Case Reports, 2020
Ibrutinib has revolutionized the treatment of chronic lymphoid malignancies. Despite its success, ibrutinib has been linked with several reports of invasive fungal infections.

Influence of polymorphisms in innate immunity genes on susceptibility to invasive aspergillosis after stem cell transplantation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The innate immune system plays a pivotal role in the primary defence against invasive fungal infection. Genetic variation in genes that regulate this response, initiated by pulmonary macrophages, may influence susceptibility to invasive aspergillosis in ...

Immunotherapy of invasive fungal infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients [PDF]

, 2013
Despite the availability of new antifungal compounds, invasive fungal infection remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children and adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Allogeneic HSCT recipients

Immunogenetics of invasive aspergillosis [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2011
Invasive aspergillosis is one of the most important infections in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients, with an incidence rate of 5-15% and an associated mortality of 30-60%. It remains unclear why certain patients develop invasive aspergillosis while others, undergoing identical transplant regimen and similar post transplant immunosuppression,

Therapeutic effects of Rheumatoid Arthritis on Aspergillosis development [PDF]

Reviews in Clinical Medicine, 2020
Aspergillosis is a common fungal infection with systemic characteristics, which is caused by various species of Aspergillus. The infection could develop in immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients under specific circumstances. Based on the clinical

Aspergillosis in Chronic Granulomatous Disease

Journal of Fungi, 2016
Patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) have the highest life-time incidence of invasive aspergillosis and despite the availability of antifungal prophylaxis, infections by Aspergillus species remain the single most common infectious cause of ...

Performance of serum biomarkers for the early detection of invasive aspergillosis in febrile, neutropenic patients: a multi-state model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The performance of serum biomarkers for the early detection of invasive aspergillosis expectedly depends on the timing of test results relative to the empirical administration of antifungal therapy during neutropenia, although a dynamic evaluation ...
