| bizarre annular lesion emerging as tinea incognito. | tinea incognito has first been described in 1968. the term describes a tinea infection whose clinical morphology has been modified by the application of topical corticosteroids. the clinical manifestation can masquerade a number of other dermatoses and leads to misdiagnosis of annular eruptions. we describe a patient who showed a bizarre appearance of annular, inflammatory skin lesions at the umbilical region. mycological culture yielded microsporum canis. | 2004 | 15504132 |
| tinea capitis caused by microsporum canis treated with terbinafine. | tinea capitis is a disease found throughout the world. it frequently affects children and only rarely adults, usually post-menopausal women. numerous dermatophytes of the genus microsporum and tricophyton can cause tinea capitis and griseofulvin is still today the treatment of choice. to study the effectiveness and tolerability of terbinafine treatment in tinea capitis caused by microsporum canis we treated 26 patients - 22 children and four women - for a period of 12 weeks. dosage adopted was 6 ... | 2004 | 15504128 |
| [superficial infections caused by microsporum canis in humans and animals]. | dermatophytic infections caused by m. canis in humans and animals have a world wide distribution and they are zoonotic. the objective in this work was to know the frequency of m. canis infections in humans and pets. we studied our cases from january 1994 to december 2002. the human samples were obtained from a dermatological department in a general hospital and we registered the next data: age, sex, job, and affected area. the animal samples were obtained from a mycological veterinary laboratory ... | 2004 | 15458362 |
| [dermatophyte infection and colonization in dogs from south santiago, chile]. | our main aim was to determine the dermatophyte infection and colonization prevalence in canines from south santiago, chile. we studied 241 dogs, 121 of them presented cutaneous lesions suggestive of dermatophytosis and the other 120 were free from lesions and were considered clinically healthy. dermatophytes were isolated from the lesions of 48.8% of animals with cutaneous diseases and from 5% of healthy dogs. microsporum canis was the principal species isolated with a frequency of 98.3% from de ... | 2003 | 15456352 |
| lung cancer epidemiology and risk factors in asia and africa. | in industrialised countries, lung cancer is the most common form of cancer among males and it is growing among females. for both sexes, rates reflect smoking behaviours. the pattern appears to be different in asia, particularly in china, where lung cancer rates in men reflect high smoking rates but high rates among non-smoking women appear to be related to other factors. the incidence of lung cancer is low in most african countries, but it is increasing. in addition to tobacco smoking, a number ... | 2004 | 15455588 |
| population structure and evolutionary origins of microsporum canis, m. ferrugineum and m. audouinii. | the recurrent evolutionary emergence of asexual lineages within sexual zoo- and anthropophilic dermatophyte species living in animal-frequented soil is likely to be triggered by changes in ecological niche, i.e., shifts of host animal. subsequent adaptation to the new host species is noted. sometimes geographic isolation or intrinsic host factors like human race may also play a role in speciation. in the present study, we elaborate concepts of speciation in dermatophytes using the microsporum ca ... | 2004 | 15450196 |
| antibacterial and antifugal mono- and di-substituted symmetrical and unsymmetrical triazine-derived schiff-bases and their transition metal complexes. | a new series of antibacterial and antifungal triazine-derived mono- and di-substituted (symmetrical and unsymmetrical) schiff-bases and their cobalt(ii), copper(ii), nickel(ii) and zinc(ii) metal complexes have been synthesized and characterized by their elemental analyses, molar conductances, magnetic moments and ir and electronic spectral measurements. ir spectra indicated the ligands to act as tridentate towards divalent metal ions via a trazine-n, the azomethine-n and, indole-nh and deproton ... | 2004 | 15449731 |

| generalized microsporum canis dermatophytosis in six yorkshire terrier dogs. | six yorkshire terrier dogs with generalized, chronic dermatophytosis caused by microsporum canis were seen over a 3-year period. specific tests showed that they also had concurrent leishmaniosis (four cases), leishmaniosis and ehrlichiosis (one case) or diabetes mellitus (one case). although specific therapy for these infectious diseases was instituted and the dogs were treated systemically and topically with appropriate antifungal drugs, only partial clinical resolution of the dermatophytosis w ... | 2004 | 15214955 |
| development of an in vitro, isolated, infected spore testing model for disinfectant testing of microsporum canis isolates. | the isolated infected hair model is a commonly used technique to test the fungicidal efficacy of topical therapies against microsporum canis. the most commonly used model uses mats of infective hairs, and results from various laboratories have differed. the objectives of this study were to develop a method to produce spores for testing when only mycelial forms were available and to develop a semiquantitative testing method that used only infective spores from hairs, and not pooled hair samples f ... | 2004 | 15214954 |
