TL;DR: The present guidelines aims to update the first Brazilian consensus on paracoccidioidomycosis by providing evidence-based recommendations for bedside patient management and emphasis on clinical, microbiological, and serological diagnosis and management of clinical forms and sequelae, as well as in patients with comorbidities and immunosuppression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-TNF-α agents in the treatment of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: mechanisms of action and pitfalls.
TL;DR: The potential mechanisms by which the three currently licensed agents, adalimumab, etarnecept and infliximab, decrease the inflammatory activity of patients with different IMIDs are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imbalance of IL-2, IFN-gamma and IL-10 secretion in the immunosuppression associated with human paracoccidioidomycosis.
Gil Benard,Carla C. Romano,Camila R. Cacere,Michelangelo Juvenale,Maria José Soares Mendes-Giannini,Alberto José da Silva Duarte +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the imbalance in cytokine production of patients with PCM plays a role in the gp43-hyporesponsiveness and the marked (non-protective) antibody production of these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The previous notion of the immune system as having two nearly independent arms, the innate and adaptive immunities, leaving a large gap between them, is now being overcome and immunologists are trying to dissect the connections between these two arms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paracoccidioidomycosis: a model for evaluation of the effects of human immunodeficiency virus infection on the natural history of endemic tropical diseases.
TL;DR: It is proposed that a new outcome of the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis-host interaction is induced by concomitant HIV infection, which probably reflects an impaired anti-P.
