Figure 1

Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) cases in HIV-infected patients (white bars) and in transplant recipients (gray bars) at building A of Edouard-Herriot Hospital. Solid lines show the number of hospital patient-days for transplant recipients (filled squares), for HIV-infected patients (filled triangles), and for the patients during their PCP episode (crosses), as well as the number of renal transplantations performed (white squares). HAART, highly active antiretroviral therapy.
