Multiple concomitant life-threatening opportunistic infections due to uncontrolled hypercortisolism

IDCases, 2022
Opportunistic infections associated with severe cortisol excess carry a high mortality rate and are most prevalent with ectopic ACTH syndrome. There are limited reports of these cases described in the literature. In this case report, we describe multiple

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

Adverse Reactions Identified after Approval of Novel Medicines: Analysis of 339 New Molecular Entities and Therapeutic Biologics

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Postmarketing safety surveillance data identify safety issues not identified in preapproval clinical trials. We describe the frequency of new safety issues overall and by labeling section and the relationship of the most commonly added safety issues with the cumulative number of prescriptions dispensed via retail pharmacies.

Immune modulation with sulfasalazine attenuates immunopathogenesis but enhances macrophage-mediated fungal clearance during Pneumocystis pneumonia. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2010
Although T cells are critical for host defense against respiratory fungal infections, they also contribute to the immunopathogenesis of Pneumocystis pneumonia (PcP).

Pediatric Clostridiodes difficile infection with toxic megacolon successfully treated with fecal microbiota transplantation

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising incidence of pediatric Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), particularly in medically complex patients, calls for novel, individualized treatments. While fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is well‐described for recurrent CDI, this report describes the first pediatric case of fulminant CDI with toxic megacolon successfully ...

Ecosystem retrogression enhances cross‐domain microbial stability and increases the genetic potential for nutrient cycling

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecosystem retrogression drives nutrient depletion, reduced productivity, and profound reorganization of soil microbial communities. Using amplicon sequencing and genome‐resolved metagenomics, we examined how cross‐domain microbial networks and functional gene potential respond to long‐term phosphorus and nitrogen limitation along the well ...

Extrapulmonary and Other Pneumocystis jirovecii Infections Diagnosed via Fungal Cell-Free DNA Using Giant Magnetoresistance Detection

Journal of Fungi
Clinical suspicion and diagnosis of Pneumocystis infections rely on a combination of compatible clinical, radiologic, and diagnostic findings. We noted an extrapulmonary Pneumocystis infection when evaluating residual plasma samples from patients with ...
