Description
Esma Eryilmaz Eren leads a 2026 study of candidemia, a Candida yeast infection of the blood, in intensive care units. The team compared two hospitals, one in Thessaloniki, Greece, and one in Kayseri, Türkiye, from 2020 to 2023. Cases in newborn, child, and adult units were included.
A total of 388 patients came from the Greek site and 379 from the Turkish site, and cases rose during COVID-19. Candida parapsilosis was most common in Greece, while Candida albicans led in Türkiye at first. Fluconazole resistance was high in C. parapsilosis, at 47 percent and 40 percent at the two sites.
