Eleven institutions from 8 countries/regions participated, with 412 subjects (28.2% possible, 38.3% probable and 33.5% proven IFDs) recruited. The epidemiology of IFDs in participating institutions was similar to Western centres, with Aspergillus spp. (65.9%) or Candida spp. (26.7%) causing the majority of probable and proven IFDs. The overall 30-day mortality was 22.1%. Progressive haematological disorder (odds ratio [OR] 5.192), invasive candidiasis (OR 3.679), and chronic renal disease (OR 6.677) were independently associated with mortality.enAntifungal agents; Asia-Pacific; epidemiology; haematological diseases; invasive fungal disease[SDGs]SDG3journal article10.1016/j.cmi.2015.02.019257495612-s2.0-84930786947https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/84930786947
