    Abstract: The aim of the study is to identify and compare national recommendations on vaccination of adult patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) in Europe, North America, and Australia. We conducted a search for recommended immunizations in adult patients with ARDs in the Medline database and the Web sites of National Rheumatologic Societies, Ministries of Health, National Advisory Committees on Immunization, and other relevant National Scientific Societies. We compared national guidelines and identified points of agreement and differences. Guidelines on vaccination of adult patients with ARDs were identified in 21 countries. Points of agreement include administering influenza and pneumococcal vaccines in addition to inactivated age-appropriate or travel-related vaccines, and avoiding the use of live vaccines in immunocompromised patients with ARDs. The most important differences concern the steroid dose that induces immunosuppression, the time interval between live vaccines and the initiation of immunosuppressive treatment, herpes zoster vaccination, and the preferred pneumococcal vaccine in patients with ARDs. We observed significant differences among national recommendations on immunizations in patients with ARDs, reflecting the lack of evidence-based data. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg

    Invasive fungal infections in patients with cancer in the Intensive Care Unit

    No full text
    Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) have emerged as a major cause of morbidity and mortality amongst critically ill patients. Cancer patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) have multiple risk factors for IFIs. The vast majority of IFIs in the ICU are due to Candida spp. The incidence of invasive candidiasis (IC) has increased over recent decades, especially in the ICU. A shift in the distribution of Candida spp. from Candida albicans to non-albicans Candida spp. has been observed both in ICUs and oncology units in the last two decades. Timely diagnosis of IC remains a challenge despite the introduction of new microbiology techniques. Delayed initiation of antifungal therapy is associated with increased mortality. Therefore, prediction rules have been developed and validated prospectively in order to identify those ICU patients at high risk for IC and likely to benefit from early treatment. These rules, however, have not been validated in cancer patients. Similarly, major clinical studies on the efficacy of newer antifungals typically do not include cancer patients. Despite the introduction of more potent and less toxic antifungals, mortality from IFIs amongst cancer patients remains high. In recent years, aspergillosis and mucormycosis have also emerged as significant causes of morbidity and mortality amongst ICU patients with haematological cancer. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. and the International Society of Chemotherapy.

    Occupation, lifestyle, diet, and invasive fungal infections

    Background: : Although the risk factors for invasive fungal infections (IFIs) in immunocompromised hosts are well described and associated with the net state of immunosuppression, much less is written on the effects of lifestyle on the risk of IFIs in the general population. Methods: : We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Current Contents databases for all reports on IFIs associated with occupation, lifestyle, and diet. Results and Conclusions: : Many professions, especially those involving outdoor activities, are associated with increased environmental exposure to pathogenic fungi and, subsequently, increased risk of IFIs. Inhalation and direct inoculation through minor skin lesions are the most common mechanisms of fungal infection. In addition, different lifestyle practices, such as smoking tobacco or marijuana, body piercing, tattooing, use of illicit intravenous drugs, and pet ownership, various outdoor leisure activities, such as gardening, camping, spelunking, and hunting, and traveling to endemic areas are associated with an increased risk of IFIs. Finally, some modern diet habits dictate the consumption of food or herbal products harboring pathogenic fungi or fungal toxins, which may cause IFIs in susceptible individuals. © 2008 Springer
