1. Historical trends in the epidemiology of candidaemia: analysis of an 11-year period in a tertiary care hospital in Brazil
Candida species are an important cause of bloodstream infections (BSI). To evaluate the epidemiological, clinical and microbiological aspects of two cohorts {1994-1999 [period 1 (P1) ]; 2000-2004 [period 2 (P2) ]} of candidaemic patients, we performed a retrospective analysis from a laboratory-based survey. A total of 388 candidaemias were identified, with

2. The persistence of multifocal colonisation by a single ABC genotype of Candida albicans may predict the transition from commensalism to infection
Candida albicans is a common member of the human microbiota and may cause invasive disease in susceptible populations. Several risk factors have been proposed for candidaemia acquisition. Previous Candida multifocal colonisation among hospitalised patients may be crucial for the successful establishment of candidaemia. Nevertheless, it is still not clear whe

3. Padronização de ensaio imuno-enzimático (ELISA) para diagnóstico laboratorial de candidemias
O gênero Candida acomete cerca de 80% das infecções fúngicas no ambiente hospitalar e constitui causa relevante de infecções na corrente sangüínea. Espécies de Candida não-albicans respondem atualmente por pelo menos 50% das infecções invasivas por Candida spp, apresentando peculiaridades em termos clínicos e suscetibilidade a drogas antifúngic

4. RELAÇÃO ENTRE A SUSCETIBILIDADE DE Candida spp A ANFOTERICINA B, COM ÓBITO OU SOBREVIVÊNCIA DOS PACIENTES EM EPISÓDIOS DE CANDIDEMIA / RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUSCEPTIBILITY OF Candida spp ISOLATES TO AMPHOTERICIN B, AND DEATH OR SURVIVAL OF PATIENTS ON CANDIDAEMIA EPISODES
Among fungal infections, those caused by Candida spp are the most recurrent. Candidaemias are the most emergent and amphotericin B has been the mainstay of therapy in spite of its therapeutic failures. Because of these limitations, susceptibility testing of fungi against antifungal agents has been evidencing a great importance in order to confirm susceptibil
