Pulmonary scedosporiosis in an intractable immunocompetent host: A case report and literature review
The Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2024.We have reported a case and analyzed a total of 25 immunocompetent patients with the rare pulmonary scedosporiosis. Through analysis, we have reached the conclusion that early surgery is quite necessary. We hope our work is helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of this rare fungal infection.

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Bacterial multiresistance to drugs is a rapidly growing global phenomenon. New resistance mechanisms have been described in different bacterial pathogens, threatening the effective treatment of even common infectious diseases. The problem worsens in infections associated with biofilms because, in addition to the pathogen’s multiresistance, the biofilm ...
