Coccidioidomycosis is an endemic fungal infection caused by the soil-dwelling Coccidioides immitis/posadasii. One prior study showed that persons with diabetes mellitus (DM) with elevated glucose at the time of coccidioidomycosis had poorer coccidioidal outcomes compared to persons without DM. The purpose of this study was to assess the association between hemoglobin A1C (A1C) and outcomes among persons with coccidioidomycosis and co-existing DM.

Background: It has been shown that cavitary lesions on CT scans of patients with COVID-19 may be related to their clinical symptoms and mortality rate.
Materials And Methods: The study population included patients diagnosed with COVID-19 based on RT-PCR results from throat samples or typical clinical and chest CT scan findings who were hospitalized at Sina Hospital in Tehran in 2020 and underwent chest CT scans. Chest CT scans were examined for the severity of pulmonary opacities and the presence, number, size, wall thickness, and distribution of cavitary lung lesions.
