From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...

Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis in liver transplant recipient: A case report
Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis is a fungal brain infection with a high fatality rate. It is caused by dematiaceous fungi and is increasingly recognized as a cause of serious illness in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients.

Phaeohyphomycosis is a mycotic disease caused by dematiaceous fungi that produce brown yeast-like cells, pseudohyphae, and irregular true hyphae in tissues. Seven Korean cases of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis have been reported to date, four males and three females, ranging in age from 9-84 years (mean 50.4 years).

Phaeohyphomycosis in Transplant Patients [PDF]
Phaeohyphomycosis is caused by a large, heterogenous group of darkly pigmented fungi. The presence of melanin in their cell walls is characteristic, and is likely an important virulence factor. These infections are being increasingly seen in a variety of clinical syndromes in both immunocompromised and normal individuals.

We sequenced fungal DNA in barren soils sampled from 12 sites along a 1900‐km transect through sub‐ and Maritime Antarctica and Patagonia. Using LASSO regression, we found air temperature ‐ and notably mean annual air temperature (BIO1) ‐ to be a highly significant predictor for the richness and relative abundance of soilborne plant pathogens.

Phaeohyphomycoses are a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by several genera of pigmented fungi, also called dematiaceous fungi. These organisms are increasingly recognized as emerging opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised patients, particularly solid organ transplant recipients. Among them, Alternaria is the most frequently associated genus,

Fish Pathogens and Associated Zoonotic Risks in Aquaculture: A Global One Health Perspective
ABSTRACT Aquaculture sector is a key contributor to global food and nutritional security, yet its rapid intensification has heightened concerns about the emergence and spread of zoonotic fish pathogens that threaten human, animal and environmental health.

Air samples collected at three areas in each province of the Basque Country (Spain) were incubated at 25°C and 37°C for Sabouraud plates (SAB) and at 37°C for plates supplemented with voriconazol (SAB‐VCZ). The potentially resistant isolates from SAB‐VCZ plates were identified and their abundance and diversity were determined.

Transplant Infectious Disease Training: Bridging the Gap
ABSTRACT An increasing complexity of organ transplantation, newer immunosuppressives, and an expanded donor pool requires a well‐trained multidisciplinary workforce with surgeons, physicians, and infectious diseases (ID) physicians working together. In most countries, solid organ transplantation preceded the development of ID as a specialty leading to ...
