Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

265
Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

Nature and Nurture

Many human characteristics, like height, are shaped by both nature—in other words, by our genes—and by nurture, or our environment. For example, chronic stress during childhood inhibits the production of growth hormones and consequently reduces bone growth and height. Scientists estimate that 70-90% of variation in height is due to genetic differences among individuals, and 10-30% of variation in height is due to differences in the environments that individuals experience,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Endemic mycoses are fungal infections with specific geographic ranges, acquired through spore inhalation or skin inoculation. Recognizing their varied presentations and diagnostic methods is crucial for patient care, especially in those with atypical infections.

Area of Science:

  • Mycology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Geography

Background:

  • Endemic mycoses are fungal infections geographically restricted by climate and environment.
  • Systemic forms (histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, etc.) arise from inhaled spores.
  • Cutaneous forms (sporotrichosis, mycetoma, etc.) result from skin inoculation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of endemic mycoses.
  • To highlight the importance of geographic origin in diagnosing atypical infections.
  • To inform healthcare providers about the diversity of these fungal diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of endemic mycoses.
  • Analysis of clinical presentations and routes of infection.
  • Synthesis of diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Main Results:

  • Endemic mycoses exhibit diverse clinical manifestations.
  • Inhalation of spores causes systemic disease; skin inoculation causes cutaneous disease.
  • Immunosuppressed individuals show varied susceptibility.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding geographic distribution, clinical signs, and diagnostic approaches is vital.
  • Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential for managing endemic mycoses.
  • Awareness of endemic fungal infections aids in evaluating patients with travel history.
