The goal of this observational study is to identify the duration of posaconazole-initiated antifungal treatment for IPA in patients with hematological malignancies and to explore the value of monitoring immune factors and cells in IPA treatment in order to assess practices in IPA management in Chinese hematology patients including tools to evaluate duration and discontinuation. The main question it aims to answer is: Does any indicators that could be used to guide the duration of IPA treatment? Does immune factors have value in monitoring IPA treatment? We will not do any interventions to participants. Participants will be monitored routinely for their clinical characteristics, microbiological test( including G/GM Test, Blood culture), Imaging examination, Blood routine, the number and function of immune cells, cytokines(IL-1β/IL-2/IL-4/IL-8/IL-10/IL-12/IL-17/IFN-α/IFN-γ/TNF-α), and we will collect these datas for analysing.
