Once their immune system loses the ability to fight off infection, they typically contract such illnesses as pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. 25. The NIH researchers studied the lymph nodes of AIDS patients with two common infections, known as Pneumocystis carinii and Mycobacterium avium. 26. Bilateral pneumothorax ( pneumothorax on both sides ) is relatively common in people with pneumocystis pneumonia, and surgery is often required. 27. The causative organism of " Pneumocystis " pneumonia, it is an important human pathogen, particularly among immunocompromised hosts. 28. Other infections, including ( BEGIN ITALIC ) Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, ( END ITALIC ) seized the opportunity to attack his lungs. 29. Patients with advanced AIDS and concomitant pneumocystis pneumonia ( PCP ) are in serious danger of acute respiratory distress syndrome ( ARDS ). 30.
