Germination of Aspergillus fumigatus inside avian respiratory macrophages is associated with cytotoxicity [PDF]

, 2012
Although aspergillosis is one of the most common diseases in captive birds, the pathogenesis of avian aspergillosis is poorly known. We studied the role of avian respiratory macrophages as a first line of defense against avian aspergillosis.

Lung and gut microbiomes in pulmonary aspergillosis: Exploring adjunctive therapies to combat the disease

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Species within the Aspergillus spp. cause a wide range of infections in humans, including invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, and are associated with high mortality rates.

Microsatellite typing of avian clinical and environmental isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

, 2011
Aspergillosis is one of the most common causes of death in captive birds. Aspergillosis in birds is mainly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus, a ubiquitous and opportunistic saprophyte.

Pulmonary sequestration and aspergillosis [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2005
Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is an uncommon congenital disease. Symptoms when present are usually secondary to pyogenic infection. Our objective was to draw attention on superimposed fungal infection.During the last 20 years, we operated upon 19 intralobar PS.

Galactomannan-Antigen Testing from Non-Directed Bronchial Lavage for Rapid Detection of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis in Critically Ill Patients: A Proof-of-Concept Study

Diagnostics, 2023
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is associated with high mortality. For diagnosis, galactomannan-antigen in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is recommended, with higher sensitivity in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.

Treatment of Aspergillosis. [PDF]

, 2018
Infections caused by Aspergillus spp. remain associated with high morbidity and mortality. While mold-active antifungal prophylaxis has led to a decrease of occurrence of invasive aspergillosis (IA) in those patients most at risk for infection ...

The spectrum of pulmonary aspergillosis [PDF]

Respiratory Medicine, 2018
Notable progress has been made in the past years in the classification, diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary aspergillosis. New criteria were proposed by the Working Group of the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology (ISHAM) for the diagnosis of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). The latest classification of chronic pulmonary
