Multicentre study highlighting clinical relevance of new high-throughput methodologies in molecular epidemiology of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia

  • Autores: Antunes F, Badura R, BASSAT Q., CALDERÓN E. J., de Armas Y, de Sousa B, Esteves F, HUANG L., Maltez F, Matos O
  • Ano de Publicação: 2016
  • Journal: Clinical microbiology and infection
  • Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27021425

Pneumocystis jirovecii causes severe interstitial pneumonia (PcP) in immunosuppressed patients. This multicentre study assessed the distribution frequencies of epidemiologically relevant genetic markers of P. jirovecii in different geographic populations from Portugal, the USA, Spain, Cuba and Mozambique, and the relationship between the molecular data and the geographical and clinical information, based on a multifactorial approach.

HIV-2 Integrase Polymorphisms and Longitudinal Genotypic Analysis of HIV-2 Infected Patients Failing a Raltegravir-Containing Regimen

  • Autores: Abecasis A, Aguas MJ, Almeida I, Camacho RJ, Cavaco-Silva J, Cunha C, Diniz A, Germano I, Gomes P, Gonçalves Mde F, Maltez F, Miranda AC, Narciso J, Poças J
