Does Weight Impact Anidulafungin Pharmacokinetics? [PDF]
Bodyweight has been shown to influence anidulafungin exposure, but data from obese patients are lacking. We determined anidulafungin pharmacokinetics (100-mg single dose) in eight morbidly obese subjects (body mass index >40 kg/m(2)). Anidulafungin exposure was on average 32.5 % lower compared with the general patient population, suggesting dose ...

Recent decades have seen a significant increase in invasive fungal infections, resulting in unacceptably high mortality rates. Anidulafungin (AN) is the newest echinocandin and appears to have several advantages over existing antifungals.

Splicing of influenza A virus (IAV) RNA is an essential process in the viral life cycle that involves the co‐opting of host factors. Here, it is demonstrated that induction of host serine and arginine‐rich splicing factor 5 (SRSF5) by IAV facilitated ...

Invasive candidiasis in children
The prevalence of invasive candidiasis (IC) in pediatric hospitals is from 4,3 to 15,2 per 10,000 hospitalized, in ICU – from 3,5 to 7 cases per 1,000, with HSCT – 2,9%. The average length of stay of a patient in the hospital before the development of IC
