The failure of artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) in malaria patients returning from endemic regions may be driven by parasite resistance to this treatment. ACT is used globally as the first-line treatment for Plasmodium falciparum malaria. However, artemisinin-resistant strains P. have emerged and spread across Southeast Asia, with risk reaching high burden Africa elsewhere. Here, we report on two imported cases possible artemether-lumefantrine (AL). Case presentation: Two middle-aged...
Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) is a sexually transmitted infection caused by an invasive form of
In 2023, a second wave of the global mpox epidemic, which is mainly affecting men who have sex with (MSM), was observed in some countries. Herein, we benefited from large viral sequence sampling (76/121; 63%) and vast epidemiological data to characterise re-emergence circulation
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is a potentially life-threatening and prevalent disease worldwide. Far from attaining the ultimate treatment goal, virus (HBV) infection eradication, two current therapeutic options aim to prevent progression end-stage liver disease, maintaining long-term suppression of HBV replication. Pegylated interferon-α (PEG-INFα) often poorly tolerated disregarded considering orally administered nucleos(t)ide analogues. However, PEG-INFα may achieve similar endpoints with...
Strongyloidiasis develops from the infection with Strongyloides stercoralis (Family: Strongylidae) and was recently considered a neglected tropical disease by World Health Organization due to its global distribution high burden of infection. Here, we present cases two patients under corticosteroid therapy after neurosurgical surgery who developed septic shock-like hyperinfection syndrome disseminated strongyloidiasis. The first case is 77-year-old man Cape Verde diagnosed an extra-axial...
