Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1996
Improved understanding of Pneumocystis carinii, in particular the widespread use of chemoprophylaxis, has resulted in a declining incidence of infection in patients infected with HIV since the late 1980s. Despite these advances, P. carinii pneumonia continues to represent an important cause of pulmonary disease in HIV-seropositive individuals who do ...

PNEUMOCYSTIS CARINII PNEUMONIA
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1966Pneumocystis Carinii pneumonia most often occurs in debilitated infants and children or those with more specific alterations of the immune mechanism. The characteristic clinical picture is one of progressive respiratory distress and cyanosis, with relatively few physical findings pertaining to the thorax.

PNEUMOCYSTIS CARINII PNEUMONIA
Medical Clinics of North America, 1997Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) remains an important complication of AIDS. Advances have been made in establishing the taxonomy of the organism but the life cycle of the organism and pathogenetic mechanisms of disease remain obscure. In HIV patients the incidence of PCP has decreased because of widespread use of prophylaxis and survival of those ...

Pneumocystis carinii Infection
Southern Medical Journal, 1977Over the past decade, P carinii has become an important cause of pneumonia in the compromised host. Progress has been made in clinical awareness of the organism, in methods of diagnosis, and in developing new forms of treatment. However, there is still a lack of basic knowledge about the biology, taxonomy, and epidemiology of P carinii; of specific ...

Radiology, 1960Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia is apparently still rare in the United States, since only seven deaths from this cause have been unequivocally proved. The seventh of these cases, from the John Sealy Hospital, Galveston, Texas, brought to our attention this interesting and serious interstitial plasma-cell pneumonia which we had not heretofore recognized.

Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonitis
Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice, 1984I n a sense, opportunistic infections may serve as diagnostic indicators of certain host defects or disease processes that diminish the immune response. The myriad microbes comprising the endogenous and exogenous flora of man are rarely a threat to the health of normal individuals.
