Prevalence of superficial fungal infections in the rural areas of Bangladesh
Background: Superficial fungal infections of skin are very common in rural areas of Bangladesh. The prevalence and characteristics of superficial fungal infections (SFIs) vary with age, sex, climatic conditions, lifestyle, and population migration patterns.

متن کاملClimate changes and emerging fungal infections
Background: Candida auris is a globally emerging yeast pathogen that has shown not only resistance to most anti-fungal drugs but also thermo-tolerance to temperatures higher than the mammalian’s body temperature. Although it has been only a decade since the fungus was identified, its spread of infections has been rapid and quasi-epidemics have been reported. Co-occurrences of the fungus infecti...
متن کاملChanging epidemiology of an emerging infection: zygomycosis.
Aspergillosis and candidosis remain the most prevalent opportunistic fungal infections in immunocompromised patients, but diseases caused by the Zygomycetes have become of increasing importance. Exposure to antimycotic drugs with no activity against zygomycetes may be a new risk factor and an explanation for the increasing incidence of zygomycosis. The latter infection occurs only rarely in imm...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance and Urinary Tract Infection Recurrence.
BACKGROUND The Randomized Intervention for Children with Vesicoureteral Reflux (RIVUR) trial found that recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) with resistant organisms were more common in the trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole prophylaxis (TSP) arm. We describe factors associated with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) resistance of rUTIs in RIVUR. METHODS Children aged 2 to 71 months with...
