Sporothrix spp. cause the most common deep fungal skin infections in Brazil and this is related to infected cats. Transmission is traditionally from organic material/plants but can also be zoonotic. Culture of a skin biopsy is the golden standard for determination. Treatment with oral itraconazole approaches up to 95% efficacy in patients with cutaneous sporotrichosis.

Sand cat swarm optimization algorithm (SCSO) keeps a potent and straightforward meta-heuristic algorithm derived from the distant sense of hearing of sand cats, which shows excellent performance in some large-scale optimization problems. However, the SCSO still has several disadvantages, including sluggish convergence, lower convergence precision, and the tendency to be trapped in the topical optimum. To escape these demerits, an adaptive sand cat swarm optimization algorithm based on Cauchy mutation and optimal neighborhood disturbance strategy (COSCSO) are provided in this study.

Recently we have observed a small change in the width, sigma, of the Mn-O pair distribution function when a IT magnetic field is applied. To improve our sensitivity to magnetic-field-induced changes, we have developed a magnetic field modulation technique. At each X-ray energy we collect two data points, one with field on and the other with field off: as a result we collect two scans simultaneously.
