Article: Concurrent silicosis and pulmonary mycosis at death.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To examine risk for mycosis among persons with silicosis, we examined US mortality data for 1979-2004. Persons with silicosis were more likely to die with pulmonary mycosis than were those without pneumoconiosis or those with more common pneumoconioses. Health professionals should consider enhanced risk for mycosis for silica-exposed patients.Emerging Infectious Diseases 02/2010; 16(2):318-20. · 6.79 Impact Factor
