| Popis: | Background/Purpose: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia is associated with a higher mortality rate and prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay for critically ill patients. CMV infection causes transient but substantial immunosuppression for transplant recipients, increasing risk of fungal infection. The association between CMV viremia and invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) for critically ill patients is still unknown. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients received bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), galactomannan test, influenza survey and blood CMV viral load test in ICUs of a university hospital between April 2017 and May 2020. Independent risks for IPA were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression. Results: A total of 136 patients were included. Twenty-one patients had IPA, 48 patients had CMV viremia and 22 patients had influenza. In a multivariable logistic regression model, patients with CMV viremia or influenza had higher IPA risk (adjusted odds ratio, 3.98 and 8.72; 95% CI, 1.26–12.60 and 2.64–28.82; p value = 0.019 and |
