Azole-Resistance in and Related Species: An Emerging Problem or a Rare Phenomenon?

Invasive mold infections associated with species are a significant cause of mortality in immunocompromised patients. The most frequently occurring aetiological pathogens are members of the section followed by members of the section . The frequency of and related (cryptic) species in clinical specimens, as well as the percentage of azole-resistant strains remains to be studied.

Severe complication during remission of Crohn's disease: hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis due to acute cytomegalovirus infection.

Introduction: Immunosuppressive therapy is today's standard treatment of patients with moderate to severe inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The risk for opportunistic infections is increased due to this therapy and is a concern in the management of patient with IBD undergoing such a treatment.

Case Report: In this paper, we describe a case of an acute cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in a 35-year-old male patient with Crohn's disease being in remission while receiving azathioprine therapy.

Leptospirosis and renal failure: a case series.

Leptospirosis is a ubiquitous and potentially fatal zoonosis with protean manifestations. Human infection commonly occurs through contact with contaminated water or soil. In developed countries, leisure or household activities are increasingly associated with the disease.

Influenza A and B IgG seropositivity and coronary atherosclerosis assessed by angiography.

Infectious agents, in particular intracellular pathogens that can establish long-term, persistent seropositivity, may play an important role in atherogenesis. The possible association between influenza type A and B infection and angiographically proven coronary artery disease (CAD) and the effect of the aggregate pathogen burden on CAD was studied by testing blood from 218 patients undergoing coronary angiography for serum IgG antibodies to influenza A and B, and for antibodies to four other pathogens (hepatitis A, Chlamydia pneumoniae, Helicobacter pylori, and cytomegalovirus). This analysis demonstrates that although influenza (A and B) seropositivity represents no predictor of risk for CAD, infectious burden is independently associated with coronary atherosclerosis.
