Abstract excerpt
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Previous studies have reported an association between IA development and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), but many SNPs have not been replicated in a separate cohort. The presence of a positive serum galactomannan assay (SGM+) has also been associated with a worse...
