概括
阳性时间 (TTP) 可以帮助区分血流感染中的Candida物种. 较短的TTP可能表明对可纳敏感的Candida tropicalis,而较长的TTP可能表明耐可纳的Candida glabrata.

背景情况:
- 早期诊断候选血症对于降低死亡率和发病率至关重要.
- 坎迪达菌血流感染带来了重大的临床挑战,特别是随着抗真菌耐药性的增加.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定各种导致血流感染的Candida物种的阳性化时间 (TTP).
- 评估TTP是否可以区分抗可纳的Candida glabrata与对可纳敏感的Candida物种.
主要方法:
- 血液培养物被分析为TTP和适当的抗真菌疗法 (AAT).
- 评估了血病的危险因素,包括长时间的ICU住院和导管使用.
- 针对特定的Candida物种计算了TTP的诊断灵敏度.
主要成果:
- 所有Candida分离物的TTP中位数为34小时.
- 在TTP检测中,Candida glabrata的灵敏度为88%,Candida tropicalis的灵敏度为85%.
- 根据TTP (<24小时与>24小时) 或抗真菌疗法启动时间,没有观察到生存时间的显著差异.
结论:
- 较长的TTP可能预测Candida glabrata,而较短的TTP可能表明Candida tropicalis.
- 如果TTP为<48小时,则对可纳耐药的Candida血流感染的可能性较小.

Cryptococcal Meningitis
Cryptococcal meningitis is a life-threatening opportunistic infection predominantly associated with HIV/AIDS, accounting for over 100,000 deaths annually worldwide. However, it also affects individuals with other forms of immunosuppression, including those undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, organ transplant recipients, patients with innate immunodeficiencies, and individuals with hematological disorders. The infection is caused mainly by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii,...
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...
