Viral Pneumonia: Etiologies and Treatment [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Medicine, 2018
Viral pathogens are increasingly recognized as a cause of pneumonia, in immunocompetent patients and more commonly among immunocompromised. Viral pneumonia in adults could present as community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), ranging from mild disease to severe disease requiring hospital admission and mechanical ventilation.

Common Viral Pneumonia [PDF]

, 2010
Common respiratory viruses are now recognised as true opportunistic respiratory pathogens in patients with haematological malignancies. The epidemiology of these viruses has not been extensively studied in immunocompromised hosts, but is probably closely related to viral activity in immunocompetent hosts, who constitute the virus reservoir for ...

Antigen targeting to dendritic cells: Still a place in future immunotherapy?

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1909-1924, December 2022., 2022
Dendritic cell‐based immunotherapy is a promising vaccination strategy to treat infectious diseases, autoimmunity, and cancer. In this review, we present an overview on the current state of antigen targeting approaches via C‐type lectin receptors, with an outlook on future developments and potential for clinical translation.

Neutrophil activation and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in COVID‐19 ARDS and immunothrombosis

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Neutrophils play a role in the immunopathology SARS‐CoV‐2 infection by triggering the formation of NETs, producing cytokines including interleukin‐8 (CXCL8), and mediating the recruitment of other immune cells to regulate inflammation, which can lead to ARDS.

Pulmonary calcification in viral pneumonia [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1969
The finding of diffuse pulmonary calcification is reported in a 19-month-old female infant who died from an apparent viral pneumonia with systemic involvement due to varicella or herpes simplex infection. The observation is of interest because of the recently described occurrence of lung calcification following chickenpox in adults.

Predictors of viral pneumonia in patients with community-acquired pneumonia.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundViruses are increasingly recognized as major causes of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Few studies have investigated the clinical predictors of viral pneumonia, and the results have been inconsistent.
