A survey of the incidence of clinically diagnosed cases of superficial mycosis was carried out using individual report cards in four Family Health units in Patos-PB, in 2007. We had a sample of 197 positive records with Pityriasis and Tinea as the most incident mycoses. There was a higher prevalence among female patients who were between 11 - 20 years of age. A high number of non-identified infections was found: 46,19%. The identification of the agents of such non-identified infections is not possible as they are not infections of compulsory notification.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes the composition of a CO supercritical fluid extract from Chinese agarwood, focusing on characterizing its components through advanced analytical techniques like GC-MS and GC-FID.
- Initial gas chromatography showed many components were unidentified, prompting further fractionation via silica gel chromatography to isolate and analyze additional constituents using NMR spectroscopy.
- Key findings include the identification of classical agarwood chromones, common essential oil constituents like baimuxinal and kusunol, and the structural determination of a new sesquiterpenic alcohol through various synthetic methods.

Introduction: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) mediated infections are important to consider in cases with neuroinflammatory presentations. We aimed to characterize cases of NTM with neurological manifestations at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical Center and review the relevant literature.

Introduction: Treatment of peritoneal metastasis from appendicular adenocarcinoma consists of cyto-reductive surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic IntraPEritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC). In case of acute appendicular syndrome (AAS) the tumor is likely to be perforated. In that case, there is no treatment recommendation.

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in increased parenting stress and substance use. At the same time that mental health and social service needs increased, access to services, including among those receiving treatment, decreased due to stay-at-home orders. Few programs were equipped or prepared to translate their interventions to a virtual format at the start of the pandemic.

The incidence of cardiac device-related endocarditis (CDRIE) is increasing, and its diagnosis and treatment may occasionally be problematic. Echocardiography is important for its diagnosis, and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) may also be useful as a diagnostic procedure. A case of CDRIE due to an infected pacemaker is presented.
