Fifty-five-year-old man with chronic yeast infections.

Abstract:

:As immunologists, we are frequently asked to evaluate patients with recurrent infections. These infections can provide us with clues regarding what pathways might be aberrant in a given patient, e.g., specific pyogenic bacteria with Toll-like receptor problems, atypical mycobacteria with interferon gamma receptor autoantibodies, and Candida/staphylococcal infections with cellular immune abnormalities. We present a 55-year-old man who presented to our immunology clinic with onychodystrophy of the toenails and fingernails and recurrent oral-esophageal candidiasis. The differential diagnosis for recurrent yeast infections is complex and includes usual suspects as well as some that are not as straightforward.

  • Asthma persistence versus progression: does airway smooth muscle function predict irreversible airflow obstruction?

    abstract::Asthma, a disease characterized by airway inflammation and reversible bronchoconstriction, manifests a variety of phenotypes, and in some, but not all, asthma leads to a persistent and/or progressive loss of lung function. Conceptually, asthma persistence is identified by a stable decrement in lung function over time,...
