Change over time of COVID-19 hospital presentation in Northern Italy
none40After the first autochthonous case described on February 19, also in
Italy the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) infection rapidly circulated, mainly in the Northern regions of
the country. The earliest reports on Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19)
have described worldwide a high prevalence of severe respiratory illness [1]. A suggestive feature of COVID-19 has been a rapid progression
of the respiratory impairment, leading to acute respiratory distress
syndrome (ARDS) and often requiring ventilation support [2]. To date,
whether clinical features at hospital presentation and outcome of
COVID-19 have changed over the outbreak course is unknown. We
explored this issue in a multicenter cohort of patients hospitalized for
COVID-19 in Northern Italy.mixedPatti G.; Mennuni M.; Della Corte F.; Spinoni E.; Sainaghi P.

Incidenza delle infezioni micotiche nei bambini affetti da leucemia acuta mieloblastica (AML)
Incidence of mycotic infections in children with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML)
Opportunistic mycotic infections have a significant influence on the morbidity and mortality of children whose immune systems are depressed by the onset of AML. The present paper assesses the incidence of the pathogenic mycotic flora and the in vitro efficacy of the main antimycotic drugs. Candida was che most commonly encountered pathogen and its in vitro response to the polyenic antibiotics was good
