    Abstract Case presentation: A 53-year-old woman with no significant past medical history came to her local ED after a witnessed generalized tonic-clonic seizure. CT scan imaging of the head revealed a left frontal lobe hypodensity concerning for a mass with surrounding edema. In the previous month, she had undergone ambulatory evaluation for a subacute cough that had more recently become productive of bloody sputum. Outpatient chest radiography had demonstrated a new right lung opacity, shown on subsequent CT scan imaging to be a right upper lobe (RUL) consolidation. She was prescribed a course of doxycycline, after which sputum expectoration improved but a nonproductive cough remained. Repeat thoracic imaging was pending at the time the seizure occurred. The patient had no history of chronic lung disease or recurrent infections. There were no constitutional symptoms. She did not take any home medications on a regular basis. She was a lifetime nontobacco user. She denied use of alcohol and illicit drugs. She had previously worked in a medical office but was now spending most of her time helping her husband take care of their house and property in Kingston, New York, a town of about 23,000 people in the Hudson River Valley. She was born in the United States and had not traveled recently. She had no pets. There was no history of recent dental procedures. She was transferred to our institution for neurosurgical evaluation.

    Abstract The epidemiology and mycology of invasive candidiasis in the ICU is well-described in certain types of critically ill patients but not in others. One population that has been scarcely studied is non-neutropenic patients admitted specifically to medical ICUs. Even less is known about the broader category of medical ICU patients without active oncological disease. This group constitutes a very large share of the patients requiring critical care across the globe, especially in the era of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We analysed medical ICU candidaemia episodes that occurred in non-oncological patients in our tertiary academic centre in the United States from May 2014 to October 2020 to determine the incidence and species distribution of the associated isolates. We then separately considered non-COVID-19 and COVID-19 cases and compared their characteristics. In the non-COVID-19 group, there were 38 cases for an incidence of 1.1% and rate of 11/1000 admissions. In the COVID-19 group, there were 12 cases for an incidence of 5.1% and rate of 51/1000 admissions. In the entire sample, as well as separately in the non-COVID-19 and COVID-19 groups,Candida albicans accounted for a minority of isolates. Compared to non-COVID-19 patients with candidaemia, COVID-19 patients had lower ICU admission SOFA score but longer ICU length of stay and central venous catheter dwell time at candidaemia detection. This study provides valuable insight into the incidence and species distribution of candidaemia cases occurring in non-oncological critically ill patients and identifies informative differences between non-COVID-19 and COVID-19 patients.

    Abstract A 59-year-old previously healthy woman presented with a six-month history of fever, nonproductive cough, and weight loss. The cause of these symptoms remained obscure despite a thorough, month-long hospitalization. On presentation, she was normotensive with a pulse of 98 beats/minute, respiratory rate of 20 breaths/minute, and a temperature of 39.4C. She was emaciated. Physical examination was notable for faint bibasilar crackles on lung auscultation. Initial laboratory testing revealed pancytopenia. Peripheral smear demonstrated normocytic, normochromic anemia without immature cells or schistocytes. Other notable laboratory findings included elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase, elevated ferritin, and elevated levels of fasting serum triglycerides. A comprehensive laboratory evaluation for connective tissue disease was negative. Plain chest radiography was normal while computed tomography (CT) of the chest demonstrated sub-centimeter nodules in a branching centrilobular pattern as well as in a peri-lymphatic distribution without associated lymphadenopathy or organomegaly. The above constellation of laboratory abnormalities raised concern for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Soluble IL-2 (CD25) receptor levels were markedly elevated. Bronchoscopy with transbronchial biopsies of the right lower lobe was performed, revealing intravascular lymphoma associated with HLH. Our case emphasizes the need for clinicians to consider vascular causes of tree - in-bud nodules in addition to the conventional bronchiolar causes. The case also is a reminder of the need to conduct an exhaustive search for malignancy, in patients with HLH.
