Peripheral lymphocytes and inflammatory indicators were compared between PJP and P. jirovecii-colonized patients. Differences of lymphocyte counts (A), lymphocyte percentage (B), B cell percentage (C), CD4+T cell percentage (D), CD8+T cell percentage (E), CD4+T cell to CD8+T cell ratio (F), NK cell percentage (G), C reactive protein (H), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (I) between PJP and P. jirovecii-colonized patients. The p-values were calculated using Mann-Whitney tests, and statistical significance is displayed as *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
