Abstract: HAART was associated with a more robust increase of Candida- than HIV-specific immunity. During HAART, decreased viral replication and higher frequencies of activated T cells correlated with higher Candida and HIV CD4 SFC. HIV CD4 responses increased with higher pre-HAART values. The best immunologic predictor of virol ...

Abstract: <p><b>BACKGROUND:</b> Although Candida albicans (C.a.) remains the fungal species most frequently isolated as an opportunistic oral pathogen, other yeast species are often identified in HIV (+) individuals. C. dubliniensis (C.d.) phenotypically resembles C.a. in germ tubes and chlamydospores formation. The purpose of ...

Abstract: National surveillance of blood stream infections (BSI) due to Candida spp. has been limited to date. Recent studies have suggested a slight increase in the proportion of BSI due to non-C. albicans species and have also raised concerns regarding the emergence of antimicrobial resistance among Candida spp. The increased ...
