Epidemiology and Prognosis of Invasive Fungal Disease in Chinese Lung Transplant Recipients [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
This study explored the epidemiology, risk factors, and prognosis of invasive fungal disease (IFD) in Chinese lung transplant recipients (LTRs). This retrospective cohort study included patients who received lung transplants at four hospitals in South China between January 2015 and June 2019.

Application of Lung Diseases Detection based on CSLNet

Jurnal Nasional Pendidikan Teknik Informatika (JANAPATI), 2023
Lung diseases caused by fungal or bacterial infections can lead to inflammation in lung and even death when not detected early. A standard method for diagnosing lung diseases is the use of chest X-ray, which require careful examination of X-ray images ...

Factors associated with invasive lung aspergillosis and the significance of positive aspergillus culture after liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1992
From January 1981 to December 1990, 2180 patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh. Thirty-two patients (1.5%) were identified with invasive aspergillosis (29 lung, 2 intraabdominal, 1 meningitis). Of 29 patients

Epidemiology of invasive aspergillosis in critically ill patients : clinical presentation, underlying conditions, and outcome [PDF]

, 2015
Introduction: Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a fungal infection that particularly affects immunocompromised hosts. Recently, several studies have indicated a high incidence of IA in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.

CXCR4⁺granulocytes reflect fungal cystic fibrosis lung disease [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2015
Cystic fibrosis airways are frequently colonised with fungi. However, the interaction of these fungi with immune cells and the clinical relevance in cystic fibrosis lung disease are incompletely understood.We characterised granulocytes in airway fluids and peripheral blood from cystic fibrosis patients with and without fungal colonisation, non-cystic ...

Update on Respiratory Fungal Infections in Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease and after Lung Transplantation [PDF]

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Cystic fibrosis is the most common autosomal-recessive metabolic disease in the Western world. Impaired trans-membrane chloride transport via the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein causes thickened body fluids. In the respiratory system, this leads to chronic suppurative cough and recurrent pulmonary infective ...

Pathogenic Fungal Infection in the Lung

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Respiratory fungal infection is a severe clinical problem, especially in patients with compromised immune functions. Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, Pneumocystis, and endemic fungi are major pulmonary fungal pathogens that are able to result in life ...
