Micafungin as antifungal prophylaxis in recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: results of different dosage levels in clinical practice.

abstract：:There is evidence to suggest that long-term survival of discordant xenografts may be possible if the organ is transplanted at a time when the host natural anti-species (xenoreactive) antibodies are temporarily absent or otherwise inhibited from reacting with the donor antigens. There is also evidence that the target ...
