pneumocystis pneumonia is also a life-threatening opportunistic infection that can occur in other immunocompromised patients, mainly in solid organ transplant recipients, in patients with cancer, and those treated
Aspiration pneumonia is associated with a high morbidity and mortality in elderly patients. In order to provide risk-adapted medical care, it is necessary to establish valid prognostic tools for these patients.The value of two well-established scores to assess prognosis in community-acquired pneumonia...
To our knowledge this is the first report on the use of itraconazole in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Considering the poor prognosis associated with Aspergillus pneumonia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, we believe that itraconazole constitutes a safe and effective alternative ...

Pneumonia is a major cause of death in the elderly population. Considering body weight loss, muscle loss, and reflux after gastrectomy, elderly patients are considered to be at very high risk for pneumonia, which could decrease overall survival because early gastric cancer is mostly curable only ...
There were many foci of squamous metaplasia or dysplasia at the peripheral area of squamous cell carcinomas. Conclusions: We report 43 cases of UIP-Ca. Our results suggest that smoking is related to cancer occurrence in UIP patients and poor prognosis in UIP-Ca patients. 展开 关键词:...
CMV pneumonia has a prevalence of 15% and a mortality rate of approximately 85% in cancer patients receiving allogeneic bone marrow transplants. The major risk factor for CMV pneumonia in these patients is acute graft-versus-host disease. Pneumonia is the most common presentation of CMV disease ...
