Chronic dermatomycoses of the foot as risk factors for acute bacterial cellulitis of the leg: A case-control study
No full textObjective: To assess the role of foot dermatomycosis ( tinea pedis and onychomycosis) and other candidate risk factors in the development of acute bacterial cellulitis of the leg. Methods: A case-control study, including 243 patients ( cases) with acute bacterial cellulitis of the leg and 467 controls, 2 per case, individually matched for gender, age (+/-5 years), hospital and admission date (+/-2 months). Results: Overall, mycology-proven foot dermatomycosis was a significant risk factor for acute bacterial cellulitis (odds ratio, OR: 2.4; p < 0.001), as were tinea pedis interdigitalis (OR: 3.2; p < 0.001), tinea pedis plantaris (OR: 1.7; p = 0.005) and onychomycosis (OR: 2.2; p < 0.001) individually. Other risk factors included: disruption of the cutaneous barrier, history of bacterial cellulitis, chronic venous insufficiency and leg oedema. Conclusions: Tinea pedis and onychomycosis were found to be significant risk factors for acute bacterial cellulitis of the leg that are readily amenable to treatment with effective pharmacological therapy.

Identification of epidemiology and factors related to tinea pedis infection and onychomycosis
No full textLa tinea pedis y la onicomicosis son infecciones cutáneas superficiales frecuentes y se observan en regiones tropicales y subtropicales. La tinea pedis se distingue por lesiones en la planta del pie, mientras que la onicomicosis afecta la estructura morfológica de la uña. Se reconoce que los principales microorganismos relacionados a estas dos patologías son Trichophyton rubrum y Trichophyton mentagrophytes.
El objetivo del presente trabajo es identificar la epidemiología y factores relacionados con la infección por tinea pedís y onicomicosis.
Se investigaron artículos y trabajos de grado en idioma inglés, español y portugués dentro de los años 2015 al 2022 donde se trabajaron con 148 estudios para la construcción del trabajo. Una particularidad de las tiñas es que se propagan por relación estrecha con las hifas y conidios que se encuentran en la piel o escamas de las uñas y el cabello de las personas o pelos de los animales con la infección. Además, es posible su viabilidad por un largo periodo en fómites, en el suelo de los vestidores de las piscinas, en la zona de las duchas principalmente compartidas y en el hogar. Estas dos enfermedades son una causa importante de consulta médica y a pesar de no poseer una tasa de mortalidad significativa, tienen un alto impacto emocional, fisiológico, incluso puede causar estigmatización y exclusión social. Los cambios ungueales generan dolor al caminar o al estar de pie durante mucho tiempo, acompañado por una delimitación en la movilidad o al momento de realizar algunas actividades.
La revisión realizada arrojó resultados que permiten inferir que la onicomicosis y la tinea pedis tiene una prevalencia mayor en la población masculina, con un porcentaje superior al 40%. Adicionalmente, la onicomicosis con manifestación clínica más común es la subungueal distal; finalmente, para la tinea pedís más descrita en la comunidad general es la tinea interdigital.

Tinea pedis is distinguished by lesions on the sole of the foot, while onychomycosis affects the morphological structure of the nail. It is recognized that the main microorganisms related to these two pathologies are Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton mentagrophytes.
The aim of this study is to identify the epidemiology and factors related to tinea pedis infection and onychomycosis.
Articles and degree works in English, Spanish and Portuguese language were investigated within the years 2015 to 2022 where 148 studies were worked with for the construction of the work. A particularity of ringworms is that they spread by close relationship with hyphae and conidia found on the skin or nail scales and hair of people or animal hairs with the infection. In addition, long-term viability is possible in fomites, on the floor of swimming pool locker rooms, in the area of mainly shared showers and in the home. These two diseases are an important cause of medical consultation and although they do not have a significant mortality rate, they have a high emotional and physiological impact and can even cause stigmatization and social exclusion. Nail changes generate pain when walking or standing for a long time, accompanied by a limitation in mobility or when performing certain activities.
The review yielded results that allow inferring that onychomycosis and tinea pedis have a higher prevalence in the male population, with a percentage of more than 40%. In addition, the most common onychomycosis with clinical manifestation is distal subungual onychomycosis; finally, the most described tinea pedis in the general community is interdigital tinea.

The High Resolution Calorimeter of CHORUS Experiment.
No full textThe CHORUS Collaboration is presently building a new detector for the search of vμ−vτ oscillations on the CERN neutrino beam, this experiment being sensitive to a mixing angle an order of magnitude smaller than previous experiments. The basic components of the CHORUS “hybrid” detector are an active target made of nuclear emulsions (for the direct observation of the decay of τ-leptons), an air-core spectrometer with scintillating fiber tracking, a lead-scintillator (fibers and strips) calorimeter (with μ-tracking provided by planes of limited streamer tubes) and a muon spectrometer, consisting of iron toroids and drift chambers. We report here on the design of the calorimeter and on the tests performed on prototype modules

The superficial mycosis are classified in ceratophytosis, dermatophytosis and candidiasis. The diagnosis and treatment of Tinea corporis, Tinea pedis, Tinea capitis, Tinea unguium, Tinea cruris and Psoriasis are reviewed.61SPEC. ISS.104107www.moreirajr.com.b
Development of a practical guide for the early recognition for malignant melanoma of the foot and nail unit
No full textBackground: malignant melanoma is a rare but potentially lethal form of cancer which may arise on the foot. Evidence suggests that due to misdiagnosis and later recognition, foot melanoma has a poorer prognosis than cutaneous melanoma elsewhere.Methods: a panel of experts representing podiatry and dermatologists with a special interest in skin oncology was assembled to review the literature and clinical evidence to develop a clinical guide for the early recognition of plantar and nail unit melanoma.Results: a systematic review of the literature revealed little high quality data to inform the guide. However a significant number of case reports and series were available for analysis. From these, the salient features were collated and summarised into the guide. Based on these features a new acronym "CUBED" for foot melanoma was drafted and incorporated in the guide.Conclusions: the use of this guide may help clinicians in their assessment of suspicious lesions on the foot (including the nail unit). Earlier detection of suspicious pedal lesions may facilitate earlier referral for expert assessment and definitive diagnosis. The guide is currently being field tested amongst practitioner
