Pneumocystis organisms burden increases up to 3–5 months of infant age and declines thereafter. Age progression of Pneumocystis organisms load in autopsy lung samples from 39 infants dying suddenly in the community is shown. Pneumocystis MSG quantitative polymerase chain reaction results were normalized to nanograms of human β-globin DNA for comparisons and expressed as the normalized mean of Pneumocystis MSG copies ± SD.
