概括
在COVID-19重症监护室 (ICU) 的患者表现出较高的Candida殖民率,特别是在非白物种中,但感染率与非COVID-19患者相似. 这凸显了监测和潜在的治疗耐药性的必要性.
科学领域:
- 医学真菌学 医学真菌学
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 密集护理医学 密集护理医学
背景情况:
- 坎迪达菌种是重症监护室 (ICU) 中真菌感染的主要原因.
- 在COVID-19ICU患者中,关于Candida殖民进展的信息有限.
- 了解殖民动态对于管理潜在的感染至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 为了前性地比较Candida殖民和COVID-19中的感染发展与非COVID-19的ICU患者.
- 为了识别孤立的Candida物种,风险因素和殖民率.
- 评估不同患者群体中殖民模式的临床影响.
主要方法:
- 一项前性研究比较了62名COVID-19和60名非COVID-19的ICU患者.
- 从入院到出院的间隔内收集1464个样本 (口腔,皮肤,直肠,尿液).
- 使用CHROMagar Candida介质和MALDI-TOF MS.识别Candida分离物
主要成果:
- 在COVID-19患者中,口腔,直肠和尿液中的Candida殖民率显著更高 (p <0.05).
- 在COVID-19患者中,非白虫Candida物种更频繁,特别是口服和直肠 (p < 0.001).
- 机械通风和皮质类固醇使用被确定为COVID-19患者的危险因素 (p < 0.05).
- 坎迪达感染的发病率很低,在两组之间没有显著差异 (9.67%对6.67%).
结论:
- 虽然Candida殖民性在COVID-19ICU患者中较高,但感染率与非COVID-19患者相比较.
- 在COVID-19患者中增加了非白虫Candida的检测,这表明预防性/经验性治疗可能面临挑战.
- 混合殖民率高,强调了染色基媒对于常规Candida监测的有用性.

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin create...

Candidiasis
Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by opportunistic species of Candida. It can affect various anatomical sites, including the skin, oral cavity, nails, and genitourinary tract. Among its forms, vaginal candidiasis is the most common type of mucosal infection. It typically results from the overgrowth of Candida albicans in the vaginal mucosa. Under normal conditions, C. albicans exists as a commensal organism within the vaginal microbiota, regulated by the dominance of lactobacilli, which...
