Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fungal diseases are a major public health problem worldwide, with increasing incidence and mortality rates, partially due to delays in pathogen diagnosis and a lack of clinician experience in identifying and treating the disease. In recent years, the widespread use of immunosuppressive agents, advances in organ transplantation, and the development of intensive care technologies have led to a marked increase in the incidence of invasive fungal diseases, posing significant challenges to clinical management.
This special issue aims to summarize the latest research findings in the field of fungal diseases, covering advances in clinical features, diagnostic methods, therapeutic strategies, and epidemiology.
