| Disease Introduction Mechanism | Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a complex pul- monary allergic disease characterized by poor asthma control, hemoptysis, and mucous blockage in lung images. Immunologic reactions mediated against Aspergillus fumigatus are believed to be the main cause. The global burden of ABPA potentially reached 5 mil- lion people, which is more than previously expected. The clinical heterogeneity associated with ABPA poses challenges in providing timely treatment during the early stages of the disease, potentially leading to complications such as bronchiectasis and pulmonarybrosis. |
