Research Article: Fungal Spectrum and Susceptibility Against Nine Antifungal Agents in Deep Fungal Infected Cases

Date Published: 2023-07-18

Abstract:
Deep fungal infection has become a serious burden of mortality and mobility in clinic with increasing broad-spectrum antifungal drugs (antibiotics, corticosteroids), immunocompromised individuals, and interventional treatment operations., The diagnosis of invasive fungal infection is based on recovery of fungi by culture of a sample obtained by a sterile procedure from a normally sterile site showing a clinical or radiological abnormality consistent with an infectious disease process. The estimated . million deaths of infectious disease were caused by invasive fungal infection worldwide per year,, including Candida, Aspergillus, Pneumocystis, and Cryptococcus. Among them, Candida species were the most frequent fungal pathogens in clinic, and were ranked fourth among the most common agents of bloodstream infections, followed by other common bacterial pathogens. Aspergillus species are the most common microbial infections in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. The mortality rate ranged from ~% in invasive aspergillosis patients and was ~% in candidemia. Clinical therapy of mycoses lies on the current antifungal interventions, but are often limited due to the emerging resistant clinical isolates., Poorantifungal activity and universal side effects of antifungal drugs affect the efficacy on clinical therapy of mycoses, thus concerns are growing regarding the increasing antifungal resistance in clinic.
