BACKGROUND: Scedosporiasis is an emerging mycosis that has gained importance in recent years due to its worldwide prevalence. It is caused by species of the Scedosporium apiospermum complex. These species can cause opportunistic infections in immunoc...
BACKGROUND: Cryptococcosis and talaromycosis are known as 'neglected epidemics' due to their high case fatality rates and low concern. Clinically, the skin lesions of the two fungal diseases are similar and easily misdiagnosed. Therefore, this study ...

PURPOSE: To assess the accuracy of deep learning models for the diagnosis of maxillary fungal ball rhinosinusitis (MFB) and to compare the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, and F1-score with a rhinologist.
Fungal pathogens significantly impact human health, agriculture, and ecosystems, with infections leading to high morbidity and mortality, especially among immunocompromised individuals. The increasing prevalence of antifungal resistance (AFR) exacerb...
BACKGROUND: Amphibians are experiencing substantial declines attributed to emerging pathogens. Efforts to understand what drives patterns of pathogen prevalence and differential responses among species are challenging because numerous factors related...
BACKGROUND: Talaromyces marneffei is an emerging pathogen, and the number of infections in HIV-negative individuals is increasing. In HIV-negative individuals, talaromycosis is usually misdiagnosed as another disease, especially tuberculosis (TB).
