| [tinea capitis in school children in london]. | an account is given of the increase in incidence of scalp ringworm seen in london school children over a twelve year period. the increase was accompanied by the isolation of a greater variety of species of dermatophytes some of which are not indigenous to britain, such as trichophyton soudanense. four main radical groups of children were investigated and the distribution of the fungi causing scalp infections among them determined. | 1977 | 838579 |
| prevalence of chlamydia, toxoplasma, toxocara and ringworm in farm cats in south-west england. | the prevalence of infection with chlamydia psittaci, toxoplasma gondii, toxocara cati and microsporum canis was examined in 51 cats on 22 sheep farms in the bristol area. serum antibody to c psittaci and t gondii was present in 45 per cent and 47 per cent of cats, respectively. at the time of sampling c psittaci was isolated from 6 per cent of the cats, t cati was identified in 63 per cent of faecal samples but neither t gondii nor m canis was isolated. when examined according to the farm of ori ... | 1987 | 3672827 |

| a glabrous microsporum canis in greater london. | a variant of microsporum canis, which produces glabrous colonies on primary culture, has been frequently isolated from cases of scalp and body ringworm by this department. the records of this laboratory, which undertakes a diagnostic service covering most of the greater london area, show that the prevalence of m. canis among scalp infections has increased during the past ten years, and this species is presently responsible for the majority of cases diagnosed by culture. the glabrous form now rep ... | 1981 | 7221800 |
| the dysgonic form of microsporum canis in n.w. london. | an account is given of the occurrence in n.w. london of ringworm due to the dysgonic form of microsporum canis in cats, dogs, and humans. the unusual morphology of the dysgonic strain is described as is the extraordinary lability of the fungus in culture. the distribution of cases in man and animals in the area is mapped. the clinical and epidemiological behaviour of the fungus, as illustrated by four family outbreaks, differs little from that of the typical strain. the origin of the dysgonic st ... | 1980 | 7387885 |
| tinea capitis in south-east london--a new pattern of infection with public health implications. | recent observations on tinea capitis cases in london suggest that there has been a change in the pattern of infection with a recent and significant rise in the incidence of infections due to anthropophilic fungi. the purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and identity of tinea capitis in schools in south-east london and factors which might affect the spread of infection. this was achieved by carrying out a survey of all children, with parental consent for scalp examination, in 1 ... | 1996 | 8977718 |

| survey of dermatophytes on clinically normal cats in the southeast of england. | to report the incidence of dermatophytes on the hair coat of asymptomatic cats in the southeast of england. asymptomatic cats are often blamed for transmission of dermatophytes between animals and humans. this study may help to clarify whether cats are responsible for the increase in fungal infections among the human population. | 2005 | 16167594 |
| analysis of the dermatophyte species isolated in the british isles between 1980 and 2005 and review of worldwide dermatophyte trends over the last three decades. | infections of the skin, hair and nails by dermatophyte fungi are common in developed and developing countries alike. however, the species involved and the resulting clinical entities vary both geographically and with time. we have surveyed 15,333 dermatophytes obtained from primary isolations at the mycology reference laboratory, bristol, uk from 1980 through 2005. several striking trends in dermatophyte prevalence were apparent over this period. the relative frequencies of isolations of microsp ... | 2007 | 17365649 |
