Antifungal resistance in tropical mycoses is an increasingly important component of the global antimicrobial resistance crisis, particularly in endemic regions where diagnostic capacity, therapeutic options, and surveillance systems are limited. This review synthesizes clinical, environmental, and genomic evidence on resistance in major endemic and ...

In this meta‐analysis of 2 775 adult ECMO patients from non‐randomized studies, direct thrombin inhibitors and low‐molecular‐weight heparins demonstrated a favorable efficacy and safety profile over unfractionated heparin. These findings suggest them to be effective alternatives to unfractionated heparin, underscoring the urgent need for randomized ...

Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis [PDF]
Aspergillus spp. often colonize the respiratory tract of the critically ill patients in the intensive care units and subsequently cause invasive disease. The risk of developing invasive disease is more in immunocompromised patients. Here we report a case

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in a patient with cirrhosis
Aspergillus molds are ubiquitous environmental molds that can cause devastating invasive infections in immunocompromised patients. These infections often go unrecognized in critically ill patients. This case describes a 68 year-old female resident of a long-term nursing facility with history of dementia, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease with cirrhosis,

ABSTRACT Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) in apparently immunocompetent hosts—now the majority of non‐HIV cases in Asia—cannot be explained by the traditional opportunistic infection paradigm. Three epidemiological observations point toward occult immune susceptibility: familial clustering documented in multiple case reports and small family studies ...

Endpoint Assessment in Rabbit Models of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis and Mucormycosis. [PDF]
Multiple animal models have been developed to study the pathogenesis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, as well as to evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of various antifungal agents and vaccines.
