Cancer treatment, due to<br />b. Immunomodulation after solid organ transplantation, or<br />c. HIV infection.</li></ol><p>Most strains of this fungal mold are harmless, but a few can produce severe illnesses when people with weakened immune systems, underlying lung disease or asthma inhale their fungal spores.</p><p>In some people, the spores activate an allergic reaction.</p><p>Other people form mild to serious lung infections.</p><p>Pulmonary infection happens after inhalation of spores/conidia, or by the reactivation of latent infection.</p><p>Endemic fungal pneumonia pathogens</p><ol><li>Histoplasma capsulatum causing histoplasmosis.</li><li>Coccidioides immitis causing coccidioidomycosis.</li><li>Blastomyces dermatitidis causing blastomycosis.</li><li>Paracoccidioides brasiliensis causing paracoccidioidomycosis.</li></ol><p>Opportunistic fungal pneumonia pathogens</p><ol><li>Candida spp. causing candidiasis.</li><li>Aspergillus spp. causing aspergillosis.</li><li>Mucor spp. causing mucormycosis.</li><li>Cryptococcus neoformans causing cryptococcosis.</li></ol><p>Outdoors, fungi can be found in decaying leaves and compost and on plants, trees and grain crops.</p><p>When mold spores are inhaled, immune system cells enclose and kill them.</p><p>The treatment for fungal pneumonias must involve antifungal agents.</p><p>TABLE OF CONTENT<br />Introduction<br />Chapter 1 Fungal Pneumonia<br />Chapter 2 Causes<br />Chapter 3 Symptoms<br />Chapter 4 Diagnosis<br />Chapter 5 Treatment<br />Chapter 6 Prognosis<br />Chapter 7 Pneumonia (bacteria)<br />Chapter 8 Lung Infection<br />Epilogue</p>...9780463122129_Kenneth Keelibro_electonico_18c6d21e-f97f-35a1-b1c4-0a8382fabfdc_9780463122129;9780463122129_9780463122129Kenneth KeeInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/smashwords-epub-549521d4-96f0-401c-808f-e57bf856f7a7.epub2020-05-14T00:00:00+00:00Kenneth Kee
