Background: Many centers use universal antifungal prophylaxis after lung transplant, but risk factors for invasive fungal infection (IFI) in this setting are poorly described.

Methods: This retrospective, single-center cohort study including 603 lung transplant recipients assessed risk factors for early (within 90 days of transplant) invasive candidiasis (IC) and invasive mold infection (IMI) and late (90-365 days after transplant) IMI using Cox proportional hazard regression.

Results: In this cohort, 159 (26.

Inhaled formulations of amphotericin B are the most widely used antifungal prophylactic agents in lung transplant recipients, yet there are limited data on their safety.

Of 603 patients, 600 (99.

Objective: Previously published work has indicated that transcripts encoding transglutaminase 2 (TG2) increase markedly in a rat model of abdominal aortic aneurysm. This study determines whether TG2 and the related TG, factor XIII-A (FXIII-A), protect against aortic aneurysm development in mice.

Methods: C57BL/6J wild-type, knockout, knockout, and / double knockout mice were subjected to laparotomy and periaortic application of CaCl.
