<i>Pneumocystis jirovecii</i> Colonization in Mexican Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The prevalence of colonization by <i>Pneumocystis jirovecii</i> (<i>P. jirovecii</i>) has not been studied in Mexico. We aimed to determine the prevalence of colonization by <i>P. jirovecii</i> using molecular detection in a population of Mexican patients with chr...
