PHARMACOECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF MICAFUNGIN USING IN THE TREATMENT OF INVASIVE CANDIDIASIS IN NEWBORNS
Invasive candidiasis is a common cause of neonatal sepsis, especially in children with very low birth weight. This study, for the first time in the world of medical research, shows the results of the clinico-economical expertise of using micafungin to ...

This case highlights the importance of considering malignancy‐related esophagorespiratory fistulas in patients with presumed aspiration‐related lung abscesses and heavy alcohol use. Abstract A man in his 60s was ultimately diagnosed with a secondary lung abscess caused by an esophagorespiratory fistula.

Pharmacokinetics of Micafungin in Critically Ill Patients [PDF]
AbstractWe investigated covariates of pharmacokinetics of micafungin in critically ill patients. After application of micafungin, plasma samples were collected. Non-linear mixed effects modelling (NONMEM 7.3) was used to develop the pharmacokinetic model. Using this model, the adequacy of a fixed 100 mg dosing regimen was evaluated in the study cohort.

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis
The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.

Transcriptome assembly and profiling of Candida auris reveals novel insights into biofilm-mediated resistance [PDF]
Candida auris has emerged as a significant global nosocomial pathogen. This is primarily due to its antifungal resistance profile but also its capacity to form adherent biofilm communities on a range of clinically important substrates.
