History Of

Association between pulmonary disease and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) has been previously reported. However, no association has been reported between hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) and IgAN. Here, we report about a patient with no particular medical history, who experienced worsening dyspnoea in the course of 1 month, with ground-glass opacity on chest CT and no improvement after antibiotic therapy. The patient was diagnosed as having HP based on the history of antigen exposure, detection of Trichosporon asahii-specific antibodies and bronchoscopy findings. Concomitantly, findings of renal biopsy revealed the IgAN diagnosis. The patient underwent corticosteroid therapy, with good outcomes for both HP and IgAN. This is the first report in the literature to describe summer-type HP complicated with IgAN.

Abstract The aim of the study was to monitor genetic diversity and antigenic changes in the genome of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 viral isolates detected during the post-pandemic period in Poland. Clinical specimens obtained from three suspected cases of influenza were analysed by sequencing. Among the differences identified in amino acids sequences, nine substitutions were located within the antigenic HA1 sites and in five residues forming receptor-binding pocket. The HA(D222G) mutation was shown in the isolate Swine/Poland/134312/12 obtained from a mild case of the disease. It must be emphasized that, in general, clinically mild cases are caused by the viruses in which that specific mutation, i.e. haemagglutinin (D222G), does not occur.
