- Trichosporon inkin as an Emergent Pathogen in Patients With Severe Pemphigus(2015) ALMEIDA JUNIOR, Joao Nobrega de; OLIVEIRA, Renata Buccheri de; DUARTE, Amaro; MOTTA, Adriana Lopes; ROSSI, Flavia; FIGUEIREDO, Dulce Sachiko Yamamoto de; NEGRO, Gilda Maria Barbaro Del; AOKI, Valeria; MARUTA, Celina Wakisaka; SANTI, Claudia Giuli; BENARD, GilIMPORTANCE To our knowledge, these are the first reports of bloodstream infections by Trichosporon inkin in patients with pemphigus. OBSERVATIONS Trichosporon inkin, a novel organism causing bloodstream infection, was detected in 2 patients with pemphigus. An elderly man with pemphigus foliaceus died despite treatment with liposomal amphotericin B, 3mg/kg/d, and a young girl with pemphigus vulgaris responded to treatment with voriconazole, 8mg/kg/d, for 24 days. One of the T inkin isolates had a minimal inhibitory concentration of 2mg/L against amphotericin B, suggesting resistance to the drug. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Delayed suspicion of invasive infection by T inkin may result in a poor outcome in patients with severe forms of pemphigus. This opportunistic infection is highly refractory to conventional potent antifungal treatment.
- Chronic urticaria in adults: state-of-the-art in the new millennium(2015) CRIADO, Paulo Ricardo; MARUTA, Celina Wakisaka; CRIADO, Roberta Facchini Jardim; REIS, Vitor Manoel Silva dosChronic urticaria has been explored in several investigative aspects in the new millennium, either as to its pathogenesis, its stand as an autoimmune or auto-reactive disease, the correlation with HLA-linked genetic factors, especially with class II or its interrelation with the coagulation and fibrinolysis systems. New second-generation antihistamines, which act as good symptomatic drugs, emerged and were commercialized over the last decade. Old and new drugs that may interfere with the pathophysiology of the disease, such as cyclosporine and omalizumab have been developed and used as treatments. The purpose of this article is to describe the current state of knowledge on aspects of chronic urticaria such as, pathophysiology, diagnosis and the current therapeutic approach proposed in the literature.
