ABSTRACT Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents 15% to 20% of all pediatric acute leukemias and is responsible for nearly 30% of deaths in this population. While high‐income countries report overall survival (OS) rates near 75%, survival in Brazil remains significantly lower, ranging between 30% and 40%.

Practices of Antifungal Prophylaxis Among Italian Pediatric Oncology–Hematology Centers
ABSTRACT Background IFD is a significant cause of illness and death among pediatric patients undergoing chemotherapy or HSCT. Application of AFP in children varies widely and is frequently off‐label. This survey aims to describe real‐world AFP practices across centers within AIEOP and provide an estimate of IFD incidence.

This study explores new antifungal strategies to combat non‐albicans Candida species. We tested clinically approved HDAC inhibitors—Vorinostat, Romidepsin, Tucidinostat—and the HDAC6/8‐selective MC1568, alone and with Fluconazole. The Fluconazole/MC1568 combination significantly enhanced antifungal activity and reduced biofilm formation.

Microcolony Imaging of Aspergillus fumigatus Treated with Echinocandins Reveals Both Fungistatic and Fungicidal Activities [PDF]
Background: The echinocandins are lipopeptides that can be employed as antifungal drugs that inhibit the synthesis of 1,3-beta-glucans within the fungal cell wall.

From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...

Potential Microbiological Effects of Higher Dosing of Echinocandins.
The antifungal "paradoxical effect" has been described as the reversal of growth inhibition at high doses of echinocandins, most usually caspofungin.

New triazoles and echinocandins: mode of action, in vitro activity and mechanisms of resistance
Different types of mycoses, especially invasive mycoses caused by yeasts and molds, are a growing problem in healthcare. The most notable explanation for this increase is a rise in the number of immunocompromised patients owing to advances in ...

Echinocandins and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapies: The Role of Adsorption
The following reviews [1,2], about continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT) and echinocandins conclude that the membranes do not significantly adsorb these antifungals. The first review [1], that evaluates several articles [3-7], concludes that the

Antifungal tolerance can promote the emergence of resistance yet often incurs fitness costs for fungal pathogens. How tolerant populations compensate for these deficits and how they may be therapeutically targeted remain poorly understood.
