Emne: Another paper on mold exposure and health shows that mold

hurts, sometimes kills, normal people

From the paper:

http://www.neurologyindia.com/article.asp?issn=0028-3886;year=2007;volume=55;iss\

ue=3;spage=198;epage=215;aulast=Shankar

" *In India, sinocranial aspergillosis accounts for a significant proportion

of histologically verified cases reported [10],[96],

[110],[111],[112],[113],[114],[115],[116],[117],[118],[119] in otherwise

normal hosts in contrast to the disseminated forms that account for the

majority of cases from Western countries. [75],[120],[121] Young men,

otherwise normal, from rural areas are most commonly affected.

*[122],[123],[124]

Similarly high incidence of fungal keratitis is reported from India in

apparently normal hosts. [125] The high incidence of fungal sinusitis and

keratitis is related to the spore content of pathogenic Aspergillus spp. *in

the environment *colonizing sinuses, nasopharynx, mastoid and middle ear. *In

moldy environment, Aspergillus spore concentrations exceeding 12x10 6 m 3

are recorded. *[126] Compromised sinus aeration, altered immune response to

fungi including poor nutritional status could facilitate growth of the

organism and eventual contiguous spread into cranial cavity. [115],[127]

Diamond and observed that though patients appeared free from overt

immunological compromise, subclinical impairment of cell-mediated immunity

might be present. [128] "

There it is AGAIN.

Mold exposure hurts people seriously, it kills people.

Normal people.

LOTS of people.

Its not some kind of big mystery.
