REVIEW Fungal Infections From Human and Animal Contact Dennis J. Baumgardner, MD Aurora University of Wisconsin Medical Group, Aurora Health Care, Milwaukee, WI; Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI; Center for Urban Population Health, Milwaukee, WI Abstract Fungal infections in humans resulting from human or animal contact are relatively uncommon, but they include a significant proportion of dermatophyte infections. Some of the most commonly encountered diseases of the integument are dermatomycoses. Human or animal contact may be the source of all types of tinea infections, occasional candidal infections, and some other types of superficial or deep fungal infections. This narrative review focuses on the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of anthropophilic dermatophyte infections primarily found in North America. -

Fungal infections include disease that varies from superficial to disseminated infections which are often fatal. No fungal disease is reportable in Oman. Many cases are admitted with underlying pathology, and fungal infection is often not documented. The burden of fungal infections in Oman is still unknown. Using disease frequencies from heterogeneous and robust data sources, we provide an estimation of the incidence and prevalence of Oman’s fungal diseases. An estimated 79,520 people in Oman are affected by a serious fungal infection each year, 1.7% of the population, not including fungal skin infections, chronic fungal rhinosinusitis or otitis externa. These figures are dominated by vaginal candidiasis, followed by allergic respiratory disease (fungal asthma). An estimated 244 patients develop invasive aspergillosis and at least 230 candidemia annually (5.4 and 5.0 per 100,000). -

Para Athletics Classification Are You, Or Do You Know Someone Who May Be, Interested in Para Athletics?
PARA ATHLETICS CLASSIFICATION ARE YOU, OR DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO MAY BE, INTERESTED IN PARA ATHLETICS? Classification determines who is eligible to compete in a Para sport and then groups the eligible athletes into sport classes according to their activity limitation in a certain sport or event. Athletes are classified as “T” (Track and Jump) or “F” (Field) based on which event they are competing in, followed by a number that represents impairment type and level of impairment. For example, T12. First Letter Represents: First Number Represents: Second Number Represents: T/F TRACK OR FIELD 1-6 IMPAIRMENT TYPE 1-8 DESCRIPTION OF IMPAIRMENT Typically T identifies a track 1 = Visual Impairment The number 1 through 8 specifies event and F for a field event. 2 = Intellectual Impairment the description of the impairment as There are certain exceptions 3 = Co-ordination Impairment per the classification rules (i.e. Long Jump is a T event) 4 = Upper Limb Deficiencies; Lower Limb Deficiencies without the use of prosthetic; short stature 5 = Impaired muscle power or range of movement 6 = Limb deficiencies with the use of prosthetic PHYSICAL IMPAIRMENT SHORT STATURE F40 F41 IMPAIRED MUSCLE POWER AND/OR PASSIVE RANGE OF MOVEMENT T/F51 T/F52 T/F53 T/F54 F55 F56 F57 Athletes who compete seated LIMB DEFICIENCY T/F42 T/F43 T/F44 T/F62 T/F63 T/F64 T/F45 T/F46 T/47 Lower limb deficiency without Lower limb deficiency with Upper limb deficiency the use of a prosthetic the use of a prosthetic with or without the use of a prosthetic ATHLETES WITH ATHETOSIS, ATAXIA AND/OR -
The Intestinal Protozoa
The Intestinal Protozoa A. Introduction 1. The Phylum Protozoa is classified into four major subdivisions according to the methods of locomotion and reproduction. a. The amoebae (Superclass Sarcodina, Class Rhizopodea move by means of pseudopodia and reproduce exclusively by asexual binary division. b. The flagellates (Superclass Mastigophora, Class Zoomasitgophorea) typically move by long, whiplike flagella and reproduce by binary fission. c. The ciliates (Subphylum Ciliophora, Class Ciliata) are propelled by rows of cilia that beat with a synchronized wavelike motion. d. The sporozoans (Subphylum Sporozoa) lack specialized organelles of motility but have a unique type of life cycle, alternating between sexual and asexual reproductive cycles (alternation of generations). e. Number of species - there are about 45,000 protozoan species; around 8000 are parasitic, and around 25 species are important to humans. 2. Diagnosis - must learn to differentiate between the harmless and the medically important. This is most often based upon the morphology of respective organisms. 3. Transmission - mostly person-to-person, via fecal-oral route; fecally contaminated food or water important (organisms remain viable for around 30 days in cool moist environment with few bacteria; other means of transmission include sexual, insects, animals (zoonoses). B. Structures 1. trophozoite - the motile vegetative stage; multiplies via binary fission; colonizes host. 2. cyst - the inactive, non-motile, infective stage; survives the environment due to the presence of a cyst wall. 3. nuclear structure - important in the identification of organisms and species differentiation. 4. diagnostic features a. size - helpful in identifying organisms; must have calibrated objectives on the microscope in order to measure accurately.
