Leishmania resistance to miltefosine associated with genetic marker.

TL;DR: During 2000–2010, serial Leishmania isolates obtained from an HIV-infected patient who was not responding to treatment showed a gradual decrease in in vitro miltefosine susceptibility, and a new single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), L832F, was identified, which might be a marker of milteFosine resistance in leishmaniasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Illicit massive silicone injections always induce chronic and definitive silicone blood diffusion with dermatologic complications.

TL;DR: There is a need for targeted information campaigns with transgender populations about silicone injections to highlight the dangers and the inefficiency of clandestine esthetic surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic syndrome and endocrine status in HIV-infected transwomen.

TL;DR: No increase in the prevalence of MetS was detected in HIV-infected transwomen patients and no impact on antiretroviral bioavailability and efficacy was detected, but adrenal and thyroid functions abnormalities were frequent and should be systematically assessed in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Congenital Leishmaniasis in a Newborn Infant Whose Mother was Coinfected With Leishmaniasis and HIV.

TL;DR: In utero transmission of Leishmania infantum is the putative mechanism of congenital leishmaniasis, and transplacental transmission, confirmed by overt clinical disease at birth, was documented, which provides the first evidence of hepatic and neurologic impairment in an infant with congenital visceral leish maniasis.
