18‐FDG PET in the Evaluation of Therapeutic Response of Necrotizing Otitis Externa

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 2, Page 961-971, February 2026.
PET performed well in assessing the therapeutic response of NEO, with excellent sensitivity but low specificity of visual analysis. A complementary quantitative analysis was useful to distinguish between satisfactory and insufficient partial responses. ABSTRACT Objective The duration of antibiotic treatment for necrotizing otitis externa (NEO) and the ...

A Polyclonal SELEX Aptamer Library Allows Differentiation of Candida albicans, C. auris and C. parapsilosis Cells from Human Dermal Fibroblasts

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Easy and reliable identification of pathogenic species such as yeasts, emerging as problematic microbes originating from the genus Candida, is a task in the management and treatment of infections, especially in hospitals and other healthcare environments.

Next Generation Sequencing of Tracheal Aspirates in Children With Tracheostomy A Prospective Case‐Control Study

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Tracheostomies are increasingly performed in children. The treatment of infections in tracheostomized patients is challenging because of the distinction between chronic colonization and acute infection. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) is a promising alternative for identifying and quantifying pathogens in a short period. This study

Synergistic Antifungal Activity of Synthetic Peptides and Antifungal Drugs against Candida albicans and C. parapsilosis Biofilms

Antibiotics, 2022
C. albicans and C. parapsilosis are biofilm-forming yeasts responsible for bloodstream infections that can cause death. Synthetic antimicrobial peptides (SAMPs) are considered to be new weapons to combat these infections, alone or combined with drugs. Here, two SAMPs, called Mo-CBP3-PepI and Mo-CBP3-PepIII, were tested alone or combined with nystatin ...

Cost‐Effectiveness of Once Weekly Rezafungin for the Treatment of Invasive Candidiasis in the United Kingdom

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Invasive candidiasis (IC), life‐threatening fungal infections with high economic burden, are often treated first‐line with daily intravenous echinocandins. A new once weekly echinocandin, rezafungin, demonstrated statistically non‐inferior efficacy and numerically shorter intensive care unit (ICU) stay compared to caspofungin in ...

Identification of genetic transcriptional factors involved in non-Candida albicans Candida species biofilm development [PDF]

, 2016
Candida albicans is the major cause of candidosis, however recently non- C. albicans Candida (NCAC) species have emerged as common pathogens. One of the most important virulence factors is the ability to form biofilms that have important clinical ...
