This research examined fungal infections in hospitalized patients with lung diseases in Iran, identifying which fungi were most common and which antifungal medications worked best against them. Researchers found that Candida albicans and Aspergillus flavus were the most prevalent fungi, particularly in COPD patients. Notably, some Candida isolates showed resistance to certain antifungal drugs, particularly voriconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of proper fungal identification and susceptibility testing for effective treatment.
