Abstract
The incidence of invasive fungal disease (IFD) is high in patients with hematological malignancies, including those with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)/myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS), and those receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). IFD is an important prognostic factor in patients with hematological malignancies. IFD is difficult to diagnose, and the efficacy of treatment is poor. Therefore, antifungal treatment begins with prevention. At present, there are still controversies about the clinical indications, drugs, administration time and efficacy of IFD chemoprevention. This article intends to review the research progress on the epidemiology and risk factors of IFD, as well as the clinical outcomes of antifungal agents for antifungal prophylaxis in patients with hematological malignancies.
Key words:
Antifungal agents; Hematologic neoplasms; Epidemiologic studies; Chemoprevention; Invasive fungal disease
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Transfusion and Hematology was founded in September 1978. It is a comprehensive academic journal in the field of transfusion and hematology, supervised by the National Health Commission and co-sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association, West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University, and the Institute of Transfusion Medicine of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The journal is a comprehensive academic journal that combines the basic and clinical aspects of transfusion and hematology and is publicly distributed at home and abroad. The International Journal of Transfusion and Hematology mainly reports on the basic and clinical scientific research results and progress in the field of transfusion and hematology, new experiences, new methods, and new technologies in clinical diagnosis and treatment, introduces domestic and foreign research trends, conducts academic exchanges, and promotes the development of basic and clinical research in the field of transfusion and hematology.
