| [neonatal candidemia in a public hospital in mato grosso do sul]. | the aim of our study was to perform molecular typing on 25 clinical samples of candida spp that were isolated from children with candidemia who were hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit of a university hospital between 1998 and 2006. demographic and clinical data were obtained from the medical records to ascertain the clinical and epidemiological characteristics. yeast identification was done using conventional methods and susceptibility to antifungals was assessed using a microdilut ... | 2008 | 19009186 |
| species of candida isolated from anatomically distinct sites in military personnel in cuiabá, mato grosso, brazil. | some fungi are natural inhabitants of the human body but may result in disease when conditions are conducive to their development. yeast infections are common and often occur in the skin and mucous membranes; however emerging species have changed this epidemiological profile. the ability to colonize different anatomical sites has been associated with the pathogenicity of candida when environmental conditions are particularly favorable. in the case of hot, humid climates, the attrition suffered b ... | 2011 | 21987132 |
| six-year trend analysis of nosocomial candidemia and risk factors in two intensive care hospitals in mato grosso, midwest region of brazil. | we conducted this cross-sectional retrospective study using clinical and laboratory data from two tertiary hospitals in cuiabá, mato grosso, brazil, in order to explore the risk factors and estimate mortality, prevalence and lethality of candidemia between 2006 and 2011. a total of 130 episodes of candidemia were identified. the prevalence of candidemia was 1.8 per 1,000 admissions, the mortality rate was 0.9 per 1,000 admissions, and the lethality was 49.2 %. the main agent in this population w ... | 2013 | 24113801 |
