    Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid galactomannan and Aspergillus growth. A , Summary on a patient level. B , Summary of BAL samples. Abbreviations: BAL, bronchoalveolar lavage; GM, galactomannan; ODI, optical density index.
    Figure Legend Snippet: Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid galactomannan and Aspergillus growth. A , Summary on a patient level. B , Summary of BAL samples. Abbreviations: BAL, bronchoalveolar lavage; GM, galactomannan; ODI, optical density index.

    Techniques Used:

    A , Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid galactomannan (GM) optical density index (ODI) is higher in patients who grow Aspergillus at least once during admission. B , BAL fluid GM ODI is higher in the BAL samples where Aspergillus grew, though sometimes also elevated in BAL samples that did not grow Aspergillus .
    Figure Legend Snippet: A , Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid galactomannan (GM) optical density index (ODI) is higher in patients who grow Aspergillus at least once during admission. B , BAL fluid GM ODI is higher in the BAL samples where Aspergillus grew, though sometimes also elevated in BAL samples that did not grow Aspergillus .

    Techniques Used:

    Example timelines of four patients ( A , B , C , D ) who grew Aspergillus on bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid culture (red square indicates Aspergillus growth, blue circle indicates no Aspergillus growth) and BAL fluid galactomannan (GM) optical density index (ODI) levels (y-axis). Patients who grew Aspergillus did not grow it consistently, even on BAL samples that had elevated BAL fluid GM ODIs. The bottom line of each graph shows antifungal therapy with anti- Aspergillus activity by intensive care unit (ICU) day (gray x marker, no antifungal therapy; green plus marker, antifungal therapy administered).
