Immune challenge mediates vocal communication in a passerine bird: an experiment [PDF]
Secondary sexual characters may have evolved in part to signal resistance to parasites. Avian song has been hypothesized to be involved in this process, but the role of parasites in modulating acoustic communication systems in birds remains largely ...

NEUROASPERGILLOSIS IN AN IMMUNOCOMPETENT PATIENT
Aspergillosis of the central nervous system (CNS) is an uncommon infection, mainly occurring in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of neuroaspergillosis caused by Aspergillus flavus in an immunocompetent patient presenting as a space-occupying lesion of the CNS. The patient was responding favorably to voriconazole at the time of this report.

Paracoccidioidomicose em um adolescente imunocompetente: uma doença negligenciada [PDF]
Acute Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) represents 5 to 10% of total PCM cases. The estimated incidence varies between 1-4 cases for 100.000 inhabitants in the endemic regions of Brazil.

Ecologic Immunology of Avian Influenza (H5N1) in Migratory Birds
The claim that migratory birds are responsible for the long-distance spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses of subtype H5N1 rests on the assumption that infected wild birds can remain asymptomatic and migrate long distances unhampered.

Toxoplasmosis in an Immunocompetent Patient [PDF]
Toxoplasmosis is an obligate intracellular, food borne parasite disease with variable clinical presentation. Although the neurological presentation of toxoplasmosis in immunocompetent patients is uncommon, broad differential diagnosis should be kept in consideration when attending to similar patients.
