Risk prediction for invasive candidiasis

Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2014
Over past few years, treatment of invasive candidiasis (IC) has evolved from targeted therapy to prophylaxis, pre-emptive and empirical therapy. Numerous predisposing factors for IC have been grouped together in various combinations to design risk prediction models.

Autosomal Dominant Hyper‐IgE Syndrome Patients Retain IL10‐Producing preTh17‐Cells That Are Activated by Opportunistic Pathogens and Support IgE Production

Allergy, EarlyView.
IL‐10 producing CCR6+Th‐cells are central memory T‐cells that express ROR‐γt and differentiate to Th17‐cells via an autocrine loop of STAT3‐activating cytokines (preTh17). STAT3‐deficient AD‐HIES patients lack Th17‐ and Tfh17‐cells but retain preTh17‐ and Th1/17‐cells.

Technologies of medical diagnosis and treatment of invasive candidiasis in children

Zdorovʹe Rebenka
The advancement of intensive care and the widespread use of invasive procedures have led to an increase in candidiasis in both immunocompromised children and children without signs of immunodeficiency.

Invasive Candidiasis in the Elderly: Considerations for Drug Therapy [PDF]

Drugs & Aging, 2018
Candida infections in the elderly are an important and expanding clinical problem, with significantly higher mortality in this group than in younger patients. The increasing problem of invasive Candida infections may be related to higher prevalence of immunocompromised older people and the emergence of treatment resistance. Older people, especially the

Review article: Immunosuppression in Decompensated Autoimmune Hepatitis Cirrhosis ‐ To Suppress or Not to Suppress?

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Individualized assessment identifies patients with decompensated autoimmune hepatitis cirrhosis who are likely to benefit from a time‐limited trial of immunosuppression versus those requiring immediate liver transplant evaluation. Early objective response monitoring (bilirubin, MELD‐Na and AST/ALT) guides continuation of immunosuppression, promotes ...

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Stigmatizing Beliefs About HIV/AIDS Among Dental Students: The Impact of Clinical Education Level

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) remain major global public health concerns. Oral lesions are often among the earliest manifestations of HIV, placing dentists at the forefront of early detection and management.

Laboratory diagnosis of invasive candidiasis [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 1990
Severe infections due to Candida species have become more frequent during the past two decades because of the increasing numbers of immunosuppressed patients being treated in our hospitals. Distinguishing colonization from invasive disease requires knowledge of the pathogenetic mechanisms leading to invasion.

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.
