Extatosoma tiaratum, commonly known as the spiny leaf insect, the giant prickly stick insect, [2] Macleay's spectre, [3] or the Australian walking stick, is a large species of Australian stick insect. [4] [5] The species has the Phasmid Study Group number PSG9. [6]
In vaginal yeast infection in pregnancy, treatment with topical azole antifungals is recommended for seven days instead of a shorter duration. [73] For vaginal yeast infections, many complementary treatments are proposed, however a number have side effects. [74] No benefit from probiotics has been found for active infections. [19]
Antibiotics promote yeast (fungal) infections, including gastrointestinal (GI) Candida overgrowth and penetration of the GI mucosa. [9] While women are more susceptible to genital yeast infections, men can also be infected. Certain factors, such as prolonged antibiotic use, increase the risk for both men and women.
Some superficial fungal infections of the skin can appear similar to other skin conditions such as eczema and lichen planus. [7] Treatment is generally performed using antifungal medicines , usually in the form of a cream or by mouth or injection , depending on the specific infection and its extent. [ 15 ]

Other serious side effects include low blood potassium and myocarditis (inflammation of the heart). [3] It appears to be relatively safe in pregnancy. [4] There is a lipid formulation that has a lower risk of side effects. [4] It is in the polyene class of medications and works in part by interfering with the cell membrane of the fungus. [3] [4]
The cross-taxon analysis approach has shown that lichen abundance and diversity significantly influence the diversity patterns of lichenicolous fungi. This method has demonstrated that lichen communities can serve as reliable surrogates for predicting lichenicolous fungal diversity, aiding in the conservation and study of these specialised fungi.
Antiparasitics target the parasitic agents of the infections by destroying them or inhibiting their growth; [4] they are usually effective against a limited number of parasites within a particular class. Antiparasitics are one of the antimicrobial drugs which include antibiotics that target bacteria, and antifungals that target fungi.
