Sulfa Use, Dihydropteroate Synthase Mutations, and Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia
A systematic review was conducted to examine the associations in Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) patients between dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) mutations and sulfa or sulfone (sulfa) prophylaxis and between DHPS mutations and sulfa treatment outcome. Selection criteria included study popula...
