Abstract excerpt

Pneumocystis jirovecii is an opportunistic fungus predominantly reported in immunocompromised individuals, who develop severe interstitial pneumonia (PcP). However, it is known that asymptomatic or mild pulmonary infections, defined as colonization, are widely observed in the general adult population. So far, genetic and epidemiological data of P. jirovecii infections in Italy are rather scarce and limited to...
