曲霉病的明确危险因素包括HIV、癌症、近期皮质类固醇(强的松)治疗、化疗或胸外科手术。未确定的风险因素可能包括体重减轻和糖尿病史。在加州大学洛杉矶分校海港医学中心,通过20年期间(1992-2012)的出院诊断,回顾性确定了23例无IA经典风险因素的患者。没有一个已知的风险因素是侵袭性脑膜炎(IA)。66%的IA患者(23例中的15例)有体重减轻史。体重减轻范围为3.3磅至43磅。在体重减轻的患者中,平均减轻为22±3 lbs(平均值±SEM)。在这一小组IA患者中,23例患者中有8例(34%)出现糖尿病,显著高于100例严重脓毒症患者中19%的糖尿病发病率(p
Well-established risk factors for aspergillosis include HIV, cancer, recent corticosteroid (prednisone) therapy, chemotherapy, or thoracic surgery. Non-established risk factors may include weight loss and a history of diabetes. Twenty-three patients without the classical risk factors for IA were identified retrospectively at Harbor UCLA Medical Center by discharge diagnosis over a 20 year period (1992-2012). None of the well-known risk factors are for Invasive Apergillious (IA). A history of weight loss was seen in 66% of the patients with IA (15 of 23). The weight loss ranged from 3.3 lbs to 43 lbs. In patients with weight loss the average loss was 22±3 lbs (mean±SEM). In this small group of patients with IA, diabetes was seen in 8 of the 23 (34%), which is significantly higher than the 19% incidence of diabetes seen in 100 patients with severe sepsis (p
