Contribution of Transcutaneous P in Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome.

Background: More and more patients have obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) because of the increasing prevalence of obesity. The accuracy of transcutaneous P (P ) has recently been validated. However, no study evaluated the interest of measuring systematically nocturnal P in the follow-up of patients with OHS and home mechanical ventilation to detect residual nocturnal hypoventilation.

Pneumocystis pneumonia after lung transplantation: A retrospective multicenter study.

Background: Lung transplantation (LT) is an identified risk factor for Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP). However, PCP management and outcomes remain poorly described in LT recipients and PCP incidence is rarely documented in this population.

Methods: PCP episodes that occurred in 9 French LT centers between January 2010 and October 2017 were included in this analysis.
