[Comparison of micafungin and fosfluconazole as prophylaxis for invasive fungal infection during neutropenia in children undergoing chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].
Invasive fungal infection (IFI) is a serious complication of chemotherapy for hematological malignancies and autologous/allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in children and shows a high mortality rate. We performed a randomized trial comparing micafungin (MCFG), a new anti-fungal agent, with fosfluconazole, a prodrug of fluconazole (FF) conventionally used as a prophylactic agent, for prophylaxis against IFI. Cefpirome was administered as prophylaxis against bacterial infection, and meropenem+minocycline as an empiric window therapy for febrile neutropenia. MCFG 2 mg/kg/day (max 100 mg/day) and FF 10 mg/kg/day (max 400 mg/day) were both safe and effective (event free ratio of IFI, MCFG 94.4% vs FF 94.3%) without significant difference. Thus, MCFG is safe and can be used for prophylaxis against IFI in children.

Impact of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacterial and Fungal Infections in Outcome of Acute Pancreatitis.
The knowledge about pathogens and their antibiotic susceptibility patterns is essential to select an appropriate antibiotic.. We investigated the microbiological profile in pancreatic and extrapancreatic infections, and antibiotic sensitivity pattern in patients with acute pancreatitis.. Of 556 patients with acute pancreatitis, only 189 developed bacterial infection; however, bacteremia was present in 42 patients (7.6%). Culture-proven infected pancreatic necrotic collection was present in 161 patients (29%). Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were the most common organisms. Among the bacterial infection cohort, 164 patients developed multidrug-resistant bacterial infection. Infection with multidrug-resistant bacteria, especially at multiple sites, increased mortality. Nearly 50% of patients (n = 94) acquired extremely drug-resistant bacterial infection at some time and emerged as key reason for prolonged hospital and intensive care unit stay. Colistin resistance and tigecycline resistance were documented in 2.1% and 17.2% of the specimens at admission and in 4.6% and 21% of specimens during the hospital stay. Of 556 patients, 102 patients developed fungal infection and 28 patients had only fungal infection without bacterial infection.. Colistin and tigecycline are best reserved as last-resort antibiotics. Fungal infection was found to be associated with increased mortality, median hospital stay, and intensive care unit stay.
