An outbreak of trichophytic tinea capitis in a group of schoolchildren in a rural area of the department of Cauca, Colombia
Conclusions. Ideally, mycological studies define the etiological agent to propose therapeutics and recommendations in agreement with management guidelines. Implementation of multidisciplinary measures to control the outbreak and educate the population is required.PMID:37721918 | DOI:10.7705/biomedica.6793 (Source: Biomedica : Revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud)

Tinea capitis outbreak and other superficial mycosis in an urban community of Medell ín
Conclusion. Tinea capitis was the most common clinical form, and M. canis was the most frequently isolated species. The use of steroids as the first and only option for empiric treatment was worth of notice. The findings of this study point out the importance of microbiological diagnosis in choosing the best treatment for the patients.PMID:37721904 | DOI:10.7705/biomedica.6900 (Source: Biomedica : Revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud)

Fungal infections in Sudan: An underestimated health problem
PLoS Negl Trop Dis. 2023 Sep 1;17(9):e0011464. doi: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0011464. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFungal diseases are associated with high morbidity and mortality, yet their epidemiology and burden are not well addressed. While deaths probably exceed 1.5 million per year, many cases remain undiagnosed and underreported. Estimating the burden of these diseases is needed for prioritization and implementation of effective control programs. Here we used a model based on population at risk to estimate the burden of serious fungal infections in Sudan. The prevalence of the susceptible population including HIV, TB, ...
