Abstract The “Guidelines for the management of dermatomycosis” Japanese Dermatological Association were first published in 2009 and Guidelines Committee revised it 2019. guidelines was prepared according to opinions members educational value. version is composed introductory descriptions disease concepts, diagnosis, medical mycology recent advances treatment, along with clinical questions (CQ), which intended help general practice dermatologists. CQ are limited those involved therapy but...
A Filipino woman in her forties had facial erythema that was being self-treated with over-the-counter (OTC) drugs purchased outside of Japan. The included clobetasol propionate, antibiotic, and antifungal components. Her symptoms were worse during summertime. KOH direct examination annular positive for fungal hyphae negative Demodex folliculorum. Fungal culture revealed Trichophyton indotineae based on internal transcribed spacer sequence analysis. Minimal inhibitory concentration...
Phaeohyphomycosis is a rare subcutaneous fungal infection caused by melanin-containing brown-pigmented fungi. It typically occurs after skin injury in immunocompromised individuals. Herein, we report case of phaeohyphomycosis Exophiala xenobiotica an elderly Japanese female. A mass on her left lower leg was totally removed but reappeared two months later. The resolved with additional seven 200 mg/day oral itraconazole treatment. E. identified as new black yeast species 2006. Genetic...
Abstract Metapochonia bulbillosa ( Clavicipitaceae ) was isolated as a causative agent of new frog mycosis Pelophylax porosus brevipodus , one the endangered frogs in Japan. Analysis spontaneous outbreaks and infection experiments confirmed that fungus can lethally affect well s Dryophytes japonicus . This is first evidence species originally known plant pathogen, also affects vertebrates.
ABSTRACT Fungal diseases in immunocompromised hosts pose significant threats to their prognoses. An accurate diagnosis and identification of the fungal pathogens causing infection are critical determine proper therapeutic interventions, but these often not achieved, due difficulties with isolation morphological identification. In an effort ultimately carry out simultaneous detection all human pathogenic microbes, we developed a simple system identify 26 clinically important fungi by using...
Abstract We evaluated the efficacy of efinaconazole 10% topical solution in long‐term use, for up to 72 weeks, onychomycosis, including severe cases. Among 605 participants, 219 patients diagnosed as having onychomycosis were efinaconazole. The treatment success rate (<10% clinical involvement target toenail) at final assessment time point was 56.6%, complete cure 31.1% and mycological 61.6%, all which increased over time, demonstrating that continuous application contributed improvement...
We report here a case of fungal keratitis caused by Aspergillus viridinutans, member the genus which was found to have clinical and antifungal susceptibility characteristics distinct from species it most closely resembles, fumigatus. A 26-year-old woman presented with contact lens-associated keratitis, etiologic agent initially slow growing be resistant amphotericin B voriconazole. Therapeutic keratoplasty performed an isolate corneal scraping identified as A. viridinutans through partial...
Abstract This paper provides a field test of new power consumption billing division for building air‐conditioning systems. Since almost all is consumed by shared outdoor unit, bill must be logically divided among each tenant's indoor unit without using any physical meters. First, the discusses algorithm our ‘virtual wattmeter’ method logical consumption. Our result shows that correlation coefficient between set room temperature and was significant, shifting 1°C had effect decreasing hourly...
Wood's lamp was demonstrated to be useful in three cases of dermatophytoma treated during clinical dermatological practice.Clinical signs onychomycosis are longitudinal yellow and white striae on the nail plate diagnosed by KOH direct microscopic examination.For its treatment, surgical debridement is recommended.Usefulness for diagnosis tinea capitis caused Microsporum canis standard.In first second cases, we used (Woody TM ) make a clear margin onychomycosis.In third case, unsuccessfully...
This paper proposes a network traffic simulation model for BACnet Web service (BACnet/WS) object access of building facility monitoring systems to evaluate the communication performance. The was verified by experiments using emulator. In our study, times BACnet/WS 1000 objects are approximately 5 20 longer than those BACnet/IP. addition, study indicates that there exists an optimum number objects, i.e. length each message in cases heavy background traffic.
Abstract Both medallion‐like dermal dendrocyte hamartoma and fibroblastic connective tissue nevus are rare benign lesions composed of CD34‐positive spindle cells. Although regarded as different diseases, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between them due their clinical pathological similarities. We present a case that could also be diagnosed propose the possibility overlap in these diseases.
Abstract We report here a case of Bowen's disease that developed in the periungual area left ring finger 55‐year‐old Japanese male. Because histology lesion mimicked part features common wart, PCR‐based analysis human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA and sequencing viral PCR‐amplified fragments were performed. The contained HPV11 16 DNA, HPV was suspected to play role development lesion.
Blastomycosis-like pyoderma (BLP) is a type of chronic characterized histologically by specific epidermal changes namely: pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia and intraepithelial abscesses. These are also seen in blastomycosis (referred to as deep dermatophytosis North America). Here, we describe the case 53-year-old male with prurigo nodularis, diabetes, lymphocytic leukemia who presented multiple yellowish-red colored papules that coalesced form vegetating plaque. In addition typical features...
A 66-year-old Japanese male with a history of rectal ulcer and rectovesical fistula following brachytherapy radiotherapy for prostate cancer, who had undergone colostomy vesicotomy presented painful peristomal approximately 5×2.5cm adjacent to the direction 6 oʼclock stoma in his left lower abdomen. Although he was admitted be treated intravenous antibiotics topical debridement, rapidly increasing. In laboratory findings, WBC 12,400/μL, CRP 16.9 mg/dL, ESR 105mm first hour. Contrast enhanced...
We report a histologically and mycologically proven sinonasal mucormycosis case causing palatal necrosis in nondiabetic patient with renal failure. Mycological examination of Giemsa stained imprinted tissue preparations revealed abundant yeast-like cells besides the typical mucoraceous hyphae. The fungus was isolated from surgical specimens identified as Rhizopus oryzae by phenotypic genotypic tests. Laboratory studies were performed to investigate association observed recovered culture. In...
発熱と多臓器障害を生じる薬疹で,薬剤中止後も症状は遷延し,ヒトヘルペスウイルス-6(HHV-6)の再活性化をともなうDIHSと呼ばれる重症薬疹が存在するが,いまだ広く知られている概念ではない.今回,トリクロロエチレン暴露後に発症したDIHSを経験した.現在も工場などで使用されていることがあり,今後も同様のケースが出てくる可能性が考えられる.特徴的な臨床経過より診断が可能であると考えられる.
Abstract The diagnosis of soft tissue tumors is often challenging. Immunohistochemical investigation, let alone routine histopathological may not allow definitive in some cases. To overcome such difficulties, more advanced techniques need to be adopted. Herein, we report an extremely rare 56‐year‐old Japanese female case extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma ( ES ), successfully diagnosed by electron microscopy EM ) using formalin‐fixed sections and fluorescence situ hybridization FISH ). patient...
