Medical Mycology Case Reports
Scope & Guideline
Empowering practitioners with essential mycological knowledge.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Clinical Case Reports:
The journal primarily publishes detailed case reports that illustrate the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of fungal infections in various patient populations, contributing to clinical practice and knowledge. - Emerging Fungal Pathogens:
There is a strong focus on documenting and analyzing infections caused by emerging and less common fungal pathogens, which is critical for informing clinical management and public health. - Diverse Patient Populations:
The journal covers a wide range of patient demographics, including immunocompromised individuals, pediatric cases, and those with unique clinical presentations, thus broadening the understanding of fungal infections in diverse settings. - Innovative Treatment Strategies:
Case reports often highlight new or novel treatment protocols, including the use of antifungal agents and combination therapies, providing insights into effective management of challenging infections. - Global Perspectives:
The journal emphasizes global health issues by including case reports from various geographic regions, showcasing the global burden of fungal infections and the need for localized treatment approaches.
Trending and Emerging
- COVID-19 Related Fungal Infections:
There is a notable increase in case reports documenting fungal infections associated with COVID-19, reflecting the pandemic's impact on immunocompromised patients and the emergence of secondary infections. - Novel and Rare Fungal Species:
Recent publications are increasingly documenting infections caused by rare and novel fungal species, highlighting the need for awareness and recognition of these pathogens in clinical settings. - Polymicrobial Infections:
A trend towards reporting cases of polymicrobial infections, where fungal pathogens co-infect alongside bacteria or other pathogens, is emerging, underscoring the complexity of managing such infections. - Innovative Therapeutic Approaches:
Case reports increasingly emphasize new treatment modalities and therapeutic strategies, including the use of combination antifungal therapies and novel agents, reflecting advancements in treatment options. - Zoonotic Fungal Infections:
Emerging themes include the documentation of zoonotic fungal infections, especially those transmitted from animals to humans, which is vital for public health awareness and prevention strategies.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Fungal Infections:
Reports focusing on well-established fungal infections, such as candidiasis and aspergillosis, are becoming less frequent as attention shifts toward more complex and emerging pathogens. - Classic Diagnostic Techniques:
There seems to be a reduction in case reports emphasizing traditional diagnostic methods, such as culture-based identification, as molecular techniques and rapid diagnostics gain favor. - Veterinary Mycology Cases:
While still present, the number of case reports focusing on fungal infections in veterinary medicine appears to be decreasing, possibly due to a shift in focus towards human cases and zoonotic implications.
