Invasive fungal infections in congenital immunodeficiencies [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2010
Both acquired and congenital immunodeficiencies may be associated with increased susceptibility to invasive fungal infections (IFIs), depending on the type of immune deficit. IFIs frequently occur in patients with phagocytic and cellular immune defects, but are rarely observed in those with humoral or complement deficits.

Complications and Clinical Outcomes Following Modified Endoscopic Denker's With Pyriform Aperture Preservation: A Prospective Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The modified endoscopic Denker's (MED) approach provides access to all maxillary sinus (MS) walls for resection of various MS and retromaxillary pathologies, but the anteromedial maxilla has historically been resected. This study determined complication rates and outcomes following MED with pyriform aperture (PA) preservation ...

Trends in the Epidemiology of Invasive Fungal Infections

open access: yesNippon Ishinkin Gakkai Zasshi, 2007
Invasive fungal infections have increased in importance, largely because of the increasing size of the population at risk. Candida species remain the fourth most important cause of hospital-acquired bloodstream infections. Infections with Candida species other than C.

Diagnosis of Invasive Fungal Infections in Children

open access: yesIndian Pediatrics, 2019
Invasive fungal infections are important causes of morbidity and mortality particularly in high-risk patients. Recognizing such infections is often difficult because of non-specific symptoms and clinical signs. Timely diagnosis is also a challenge due to difficulty in obtaining adequate volume of samples, need for anaesthesia to perform certain ...

Capsule independent uptake of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans into brain microvascular endothelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cryptococcosis is a life-threatening fungal disease with a high rate of mortality among HIV/AIDS patients across the world. The ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is central to the pathogenesis of cryptococcosis, but the way in which this

Innovative PLA or PCL‐Based Ocular Implants Obtained From Tape Casting or Electrospinning for Sustained‐Release Dexamethasone

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
PLA and PCL ocular implants prepared by tape casting and electrospinning provide sustained dexamethasone release with distinct release profiles governed by polymer type and processing method. The relationship between polymer structure, degradation behavior, and drug release demonstrates the potential of these fabrication techniques for controlled ...
