Caspofungin Combined With TMP/SMZ in Treatment of Intractable Acute Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia in Renal Transplant Recipients: Case Report and Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is a potential life‐threatening opportunistic infection that predominantly affects immunocompromised individuals, such as those with human immunodeficiency virus or organ transplant recipients. The treatment of PJP, particularly severe cases, remains challenging, as standardized treatment therapies often ...

Pneumocystis carinii from pigs and humans are antigenically distinct

, 1996
The antigens of Pneumocystis carinii cysts isolated from pigs and humans were compared by the Western immunoblotting technique. Convalescent pig serum reacted with two antigens (approximately 78 kDa and 32.5 kDa) of porcine P.

Association of Pulmonary Septic Embolism and Pulmonary Arterial Thromboembolism in Lemierre Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
We report a rare presentation of Lemierre's syndrome in a 65‐year‐old woman, characterised by the coexistence of septic pulmonary emboli and pulmonary arterial thromboembolism, both documented on CT pulmonary angiography. ABSTRACT Lemierre syndrome (LS) is a rapidly progressing disease characterised by a recent oropharyngeal infection, complicated by ...

Clinical Applications of the ARDSVet (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndromes in Veterinary Medicine) Definitions in Small and Large Animal Patients

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 339-345, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To illustrate the use of the ARDSVet (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndromes in Veterinary Medicine) definitions in small and large animal patients using a case‐based approach. Etiology Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in veterinary patients is triggered by a wide range of clinical insults. These include probable risk factors

AIDS-Related Extrapulmonary Pneumocystis carinii Infection Presenting as a Solitary Rectal Ulcer

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1996
Extrapulmonary infection with Pneumocystis carinii, although uncommon, is increasingly recognized. Use of aerosolized pentamidine versus a systemic medication is thought to be a contributing factor due to the low concentrations of drug that are incapable
