Abstract
Epidemiologic trends in pulmonary mold infections were assessed. Of 227 infections, 24 were considered late-onset (>14 days) and Aspergillus less common (58.3% vs 78.3%; P = .030). For late-onset cases, Aspergillus was dramatically less frequent from 2020-2025 compared to 2014-2019 (11.1% vs 86.7%, P < .001), while Fusarium spp. increased (44.4% vs 0%, P = .012).
评估肺部霉菌感染的流行趋势。在227例感染中,24例被认为是迟发性(>14天),曲霉菌较少见(58.3% vs 78.3%; P = 0.030)。在晚发病例中,与2014-2019年相比,2020-2025年曲霉菌的发病率显著降低(11.1%比86.7%,P < 0.001),而镰刀菌的发病率上升(44.4%比0%,P = 0.012)。
