Impact of A. Lumbricoides on Pulmonary Aspergillosis Development

July 27, 2023 updated by: Svetlana Osipova, MD, PhD, DS, Research Institute of Epidemiology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, Uzbekistan

Role of A. Lumbricoides in the Development of Pulmonary Aspergillosis in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients

The prevalence of ascariasis in COPD patients with and without concomitant pulmonary aspergillosis and in controls will be determined. To assess the influence of ascaridosis on the development of pulmonary aspergillosis in COPD patients cytokine status of patients will be studied.
