Visual abstract
Pulmonary Co-Infection of Pneumocystis jirovecii and Aspergillus species
IPA n=202 patients
PCP n=185 patients
IPA-PCP co-infection n=9
β’ IPA / PCP overlap: Associated with worse overall survival after 30 days (22%) compared to IPA-only patients (57%).
β’ Predictors for PCP in IPA patients:
β’ Beta-D-Glucane > 834 pg/mL
β’ Use of prednisone aquivalent 30mg daily for >
4 weeks
2014 to 2024 retrospective, observational
