TL;DR: Management of mucormycosis depends on recognising disease patterns and on early diagnosis, and limited availability of contemporary treatments burdens patients in low and middle income settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The global problem of antifungal resistance: prevalence, mechanisms, and management
TL;DR: An effective antifungal stewardship programme is essential to control drug resistance, and should incorporate rapid fungal diagnostics, therapeutic drug monitoring, and clinical intervention teams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aspergillus section Fumigati: antifungal susceptibility patterns and sequence-based identification.
Laura Alcazar-Fuoli,Emilia Mellado,Ana Alastruey-Izquierdo,Manuel Cuenca-Estrella,Juan L. Rodriguez-Tudela +4 more
TL;DR: A number of different species whose morphological features resemble those of Aspergillus fumigatus could succeed in producing invasive infections in the susceptible host.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiological Cutoffs and Cross-Resistance to Azole Drugs in Aspergillus fumigatus
Juan L. Rodriguez-Tudela,Laura Alcazar-Fuoli,Emilia Mellado,Ana Alastruey-Izquierdo,Araceli Monzón,Manuel Cuenca-Estrella +5 more
TL;DR: Aspergillus fumigatus strains with resistance to azole drugs have recently been detected and the underlying molecular mechanisms of resistance characterized, and a substitution of glycine in position 54 of Cyp51A confers cross-resistance between itraconazole and posaconazoles.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA barcoding in Mucorales: an inventory of biodiversity.

TL;DR: The phylogenetic analyses showed that all non-thermophilic Rhizomucor species belong to Mucor and the genus Zygorhynchus was shown to be polyphyletic based on ITS and LSU data, and several taxonomic and nomenclatural changes became necessary.
