侵袭性真菌感染是免疫抑制患者发病率和死亡率的一个日益增长的原因。此外,在使用唑类预防念珠菌的同时,侵袭性曲霉病和毛霉菌等其他丝状真菌感染的发生率也有所增加。已经确定了新的危险因素和不同的发病时间。在制定治疗策略和有效预防以改善免疫抑制患者预后时,了解侵袭性真菌感染的流行病学变化及其危险因素尤为重要。(C)2008年Elsevier B.V.和国际化疗学会。版权所有。
Invasive fungal infection is a growing cause of morbidity and mortality in immunosuppressed patients. Furthermore, the use of azole prophylaxis against Candida species has coincided with an increase in the incidence of invasive aspergillosis and infections by other filamentous fungi such as Mucorales. New risk factors and different timescales for onset have been identified. Knowledge of changes in the epidemiology of, and risk factors for, invasive fungal infection is particularly important when developing therapeutic strategies and effective prophylaxis to improve the prognosis of immunosuppressed patients.
