Journal ArticleDOI

Mycobacterium xenopi pulmonary infections: a multicentric retrospective study of 136 cases in north-east France

TL;DR: In contrast to recent guidelines, this study showed three different types of the disease (cavitary, nodular or diffuse infiltrate forms) with a different prognosis, and all patients with M xenopi infection should be treated with a rifamycin-containing regimen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pneumocystis jiroveci Internal Transcribed Spacer Types in Patients Colonized by the Fungus and in Patients with Pneumocystosis from the Same French Geographic Region

TL;DR: The results show that similar genotypes can be responsible for PCP as well as pulmonary colonization, and a high diversity of genotypes in colonized patients and in patients with PCP are found, suggesting that human populations infected by P. jiroveci, whatever the clinical manifestation, may play a role as a common reservoir for the fungus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria pulmonary infection: Management and follow-up of 31 infected patients

TL;DR: Management of NTM pulmonary infection also depends on comorbidities, and should be defined according to the severity of underlying diseases, as the high mortality rate may be related to concomitant diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Community-acquired bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonia in adults: effect of diminished penicillin susceptibility on clinical outcome

TL;DR: It appears that infection by a resistant pneumococcal strain is not in itself a gravity factor in this setting, but that their acquisition is associated with pejorative clinical features.
