BACKGROUND
Treatment with an echinocandin is recommended as first-line therapy for patients with invasive candidiasis including candidemia (ICC). Little is known about the efficacy and safety of anidulafungin in children with ICC.
METHODS
Eligible patients with ICC aged 2-<18 years were enrolled
OBJECTIVE
To investigate epidemiologic trends, clinical features and outcome of esophageal candidiasis in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy in a prospectively monitored population of HIV-infected children and adolescents followed at the National Cancer Institute.
METHODS
The records of
BACKGROUND
Enteroendocrine (EE) cells are necessary for the regulation of gastrointestinal function. The lack of intestinal enteroendocrine cells in enteroendocrine cell dysgenesis causes severe malabsorptive diarrhea. Autoimmune-polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal-dystrophy (APECED) is often
A 5-year-old female miniature dachshund presenting with persistent vomiting and diarrhea had two concurrent rare pathological conditions: systemic candidiasis and mesenteric mast cell tumor with multiorgan metastases. Neoplastic mast cells formed mass in the mesentery of the cecal-colonic region and
Infectious complications of penile prostheses are unusual even in diabetic patients, and generally involve Staphylococcus or gram-negative enteric organisms. This paper presents a diabetic patient who developed fatal, primary renal candidiasis associated with an infected penile prosthesis. He is the
Sheehan's syndrome and lymphocytic hypophysitis often occur in relation to pregnancy, making their differentiation difficult. We describe a 52-yr-old woman with hypopituitarism, Hashimoto's thyroiditis and candidiasis. She was admitted to our hospital because of nausea, vomiting and constipation.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate safety and efficacy of long-term posaconazole in HIV-infected patients with azole-refractory oropharyngeal candidiasis and/or esophageal candidiasis.
METHODS
In this noncomparative, open-label study, participants received oral posaconazole 400 mg twice daily (bid) for 3 months.
BACKGROUND
Azole-refractory mucosal candidiasis is a debilitating disease frequently seen in patients who are immunosuppressed as a result of HIV, malignancy, posttransplant immunosuppressive therapy, persistent neutropenia, steroid use, or diabetes. Anidulafungin has potent activity against a broad
Ketoconazole suspension (20 mg per ml) was compared with nystatin (100,000 units per ml) in the treatment of oral candidosis in newborns and infants. In all patients Candida infection was proven by culture. Twenty patients were treated with ketoconazole and 15 patients with nystatin. Treatment was
BACKGROUND
Oesophageal candidiasis is the most common cause of oesophageal symptoms in patients with AIDS. Antifungal therapy, given as a suspension, may be better tolerated than capsules or tablets in children or patients with oesophageal symptoms. We performed a prospective study of the safety and
BACKGROUND
Infections of the esophagus are rare and most commonly seen in children with immune suppression resulting from malignancy, chronic metabolic or infectious disease, or immunosuppressive drug therapy.
METHODS
An 18-month-old girl on inhaled corticosteroid for bronchial asthma presented with
Several antifungal regimens had failed to relieve severe, recurrent esophageal candidiasis in a 75 year old woman without predisposing disease whose serum transiently inhibited the candidacidal capacity of her polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Treatment with oral nystatin suspension was unsuccessful,
Seroconversion to human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) associated with an illness characterized by fever, sore throat, and lymphadenopathy, sometimes with rash, diarrhea, and vomiting. Leukopenia and liver dysfunction also can occur in some patients. The antibody response associated with HIV infection
A full-term male neonate, weighing 2540 g at birth, was admitted to hospital on day 2 because of vomiting and severe dehydration. Duodeno-duodenostomy was performed on day 5 for congenital duodenal atresia. The child was well postoperatively until day 9, when he developed fever. Intermittent fever
BACKGROUND
Little is known about the epidemiology and clinical features of esophageal candidiasis (EC) in pediatric AIDS. We therefore investigated the clinical presentation and risk factors of EC in a large prospectively monitored population of HIV-infected children at the National Cancer
