Pneumonia-like symptoms or meningitis may occur with a deeper or systemic infection. [2] Fungi are everywhere, but only some cause disease. [13] Fungal infection occurs after spores are either breathed in, come into contact with skin or enter the body through the skin such as via a cut, wound or injection. [3]
Early infection tends to be associated with mild or no symptoms, while the later pulmonary phase, which can be life-threatening in adults, is usually mild or absent. [32] [33] While cases of children with severe symptoms are exceptional, they can occasionally require intensive care. [34] [35] [36] Fatalities have been rare. [33] [37]

A systemic disease is one that affects a number of organs and tissues, or affects the body as a whole. [1] It differs from a localized disease , which is a disease affecting only part of the body (e.g., a mouth ulcer ).
Clinical trials show that anti-interleukin-6 and anti-interleukin-1 drugs are effective in managing systemic symptoms. Studies show that 40% of children with SJIA have a monocyclic disease history, recovering after varying periods. A small percentage experience a polycyclic course, with over half having a prolonged disease course.
Kawasaki disease is a type of systemic vasculitis of medium-sized vessels with an acute onset that primarily affects young children. Fever, conjunctivitis, infection of the skin and mucous membranes, and cervical lymphadenopathy are the main symptoms. [11]
