The increase in the zoonotic epidemic of sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis, which started late 1990s Rio de Janeiro and is now found almost all Brazilian states, has been equally advancing neighboring countries Brazil. Changes clinical-epidemiological profile, advances laboratory diagnosis disease, therapeutic difficulties have observed throughout these 25 years epidemic, although there no national consensus. last international guideline dates from 2007.Update clinical...
The evolution in the knowledge of tuberculosis' physiopathology allowed not only a better understanding immunological factors involved disease process, but also development new laboratory tests, as well establishment histological classification that reflects host's ability to contain infectious agent. At same time, increasing bacilli resistance led alterations basic tuberculosis treatment scheme 2009. This article critically examines and investigations, regimens for possible adverse...
Abstract Background Despite therapeutic hypothermia (TH) and neonatal intensive care, 45–50% of children affected by moderate-to-severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) die or suffer from long-term neurodevelopmental impairment. Additional neuroprotective therapies are sought, besides TH, to further improve the outcome infants. Allopurinol — a xanthine oxidase inhibitor reduced production oxygen radicals subsequent brain damage in pre-clinical preliminary human studies cerebral ischemia...
Aim: Cases of sporotrichosis are emerging in several states Brazil, especially the southeast. Recently, has been reported state Pernambuco northeastern region. The goal this study was to shed new light on terms geographic distribution human cases and provide an overview associated with zoonotic transmission. Patients & methods: From March 2017 November 2019, 179 patients were diagnosed sporotrichosis. Georeferencing analysis, spatial epidemiological features all described. Results: data show...
Human sporotrichosis is an emerging disease caused by fungi of the genus Sporothrix, distributed worldwide, but mostly in tropical and subtropical regions. This traumatic inoculation contaminated material (either animal or vegetal origin) into skin. Sporotrichosis cases zoonotic transmission through felines have significantly increased over last 20 years Brazil. There a spectrum clinical outcomes, from classical lymphocutaneous fixed forms to disseminated manifestations extracutaneous...
Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by thermodimorphic fungi of Sporothrix schenckii complex and usually transmitted as result traumatic inoculation these microorganisms; infection can produce number manifestations.1,2 In Brazil, sporotrichosis has been major public health issue, with multiple outbreaks occurring because zoonotic transmission, including contact cats, S brasiliensis the most prevalent agent in Rio de Janeiro State.3,4 Immunocompromised individuals are thought to...
Hackathons and game jams are informal venues to engage STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) students in practical learning nurturing interdisciplinary competencies (e.g., programming, design, communication). They also offer rich opportunities for networking boosting the employability of participants. However, due not very inclusive culture created around them, these events may become hostile places women. The low participation women hackathons result a loss opportunity them...
Game jams are games enthusiasts' encounters for one obvious goal in common: creating games. But more than that, these meetings work as an important networking environment building social and professional relationships among individuals the area, addition to generating ecosystem of support favorable game development market, benefiting all those involved: aspirants, professionals market a whole. For reasons, participating has become relevant factor insertion consolidation area. However, it is...
The purpose of this report is to record the first case a hematophagous bat (Desmodus rotundus) infected with rabies virus in an urban area Brazil. To authors' knowledge, such Latin America. After discovering his garden at 10 o'clock morning, resident Ubatuba municipality asked Zoonosis Control Center team visit home. animal was caught alive on same day and sent Pasteur Institute laboratory, where it identified as Desmodus rotundus specimen. Standard tests for diagnosis were carried out...
Introduction and objectives: Several studies support the health benefits of breastfeeding for both mother newborn. However, a significant number mothers discontinue within first six months childbirth, with several factors influencing adherence. The purpose this study is to assess impact COVID-19 pandemic on prevention mother-to-newborn infection transmission, patterns duration, incidence other infections during year life. Methods: Data from sample 39 who gave birth at Hospital Pedro Hispano...
The gold standard diagnosis of sporotrichosis is the isolation Sporothrix sp. in culture media, but this a time-consuming test that susceptible to contamination and can be affected by fungal load. Molecular methods such as nested PCR are gaining more ground management several infections they tools for rapid accurate identification microorganisms from pure cultures or directly biological samples. This study aimed apply molecular protocol detection spp. clinical Thirteen samples—six skin...
We described a case of exuberant cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis in 27-year-old male with mild CoVID-19 Brazil. The patient presented painful purpuric papules and vesicobullous lesions hemorrhagic content located the larger amount lower limbs and, to lesser extent region back upper limbs, saving palms soles feet. Influenza-like syndrome anosmia ageusia was reported seven days before skin lesions. A real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction positive on nasopharyngeal swab...
Infantile myofibromatosis is an uncommon soft tissue neoplasm that may present at birth or in early infancy. Although rare, this one of the most common benign fibrous tumors Even though these do not spread, they can compress damage nearby organs. There established management protocol, but it advisable to maintain periodic clinical and imagological control until stability. Watchful waiting option consider absence problematic symptoms visceral involvement. We report a case solitary infantile...
Abstract Case description: We describe the clinical case of a female newborn, result monitored, full-term pregnancy, who presented at birth with an atrophic lesion on abdominal wall, measuring around 5cm and visualization underlying vasculature. There were no other alterations objective examination. Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) was hypothesized corroborated by dermatology. Abdominal, transfontanellar ultrasound echocardiogram requested associated anomalies. No family history similar skin...
Aim: To evaluate antifungal potential of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine hybrids based on thiosemicarbazones and thiazolidinediones against pathogenic Sporothrix species. Methods: Antifungal activity nine compounds were assessed by broth microdilution. Interactions between active itraconazole evaluated the checkerboard assay using non-wild-type isolates. Cytotoxicity was determined. Results: Four C-3 substituted analogs showed activity, unrelated to thiosemicarbazone or...
Long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHADD) is a rare disease, inherited as autosomal-recessive trait, with variable clinical presentation including severe hypoglycaemia, cardiomyopathy, sudden infant death, progressive liver failure, 'Reye like' syndrome, neuromyopathy, muscle weakness and rhabdomyolysis.We report 3 years old male patient admitted to our emergency department vomiting, hypotonia prostration, after common respiratory infection.
