Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented healthcare challenges, and been linked to secondary infections. Candidemia, a fungal healthcare-associated infection, described patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19. However, studies of candidemia coinfection have limited sample size geographic scope. We assessed differences without diagnosis. Methods conducted case-level analysis using population-based surveillance data collected through the Centers for Disease...
In our study, mutations associated to azole resistance and echinocandin were detected in Candida glabrata isolates using a whole-genome sequence. C. is the second most common cause of candidemia United States, which rapidly acquires antifungals, vitro vivo .
Candidemia is a common opportunistic infection causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Because of an increasing proportion non-albicans Candida species rising antifungal drug resistance, the Infectious Diseases Society America (IDSA) changed treatment guidelines in 2016 to recommend echinocandins over fluconazole as first-line for adults with candidemia. We describe candidemia practices adherence updated guidelines.During 2017-2018, Emerging Infections Program conducted active...
Candidemia is a common healthcare-associated infection with high mortality. Estimates of recurrence range from 1% to 17%. Few studies have focused on those recurrent candidemia, who often experience more severe illness and greater treatment failure. We describe candidemia trends risk factors. analyzed population-based surveillance data collected during 2011-2018. Persons >1 episode (defined as the 30-day period after positive Candida species) were classified having candidemia. compared...
Background Protecting the health of refugees and other migrant populations in United States is key to ensuring successful resettlement. Therefore, identify address concerns early, US Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC) recommends a domestic medical examination (screening infectious noninfectious diseases/conditions) shortly after arrival US. However, because refugee/migrant often have differing patterns from one another population, collection analysis information developing...
Abstract Background Antibodies to measles, mumps, and rubella decline an estimated average of 3% per year, have a high degree variation among individuals. Yet, this differences in individual-level response the 3 antigens are not well understood. To better understand potential implications on individual population-level susceptibility, we reanalyzed existing longitudinal data identify patterns seropositivity antibody persistence. Methods Wisconsin children given second dose vaccine (MMR2) at...
Purpose: Little is known regarding the health care utilization patterns of refugees resettled in United States. We analyzed Annual Survey Refugees (ASR), a nationally representative survey recently refugees, to assess these patterns. Methods: Anonymized 2016 ASR data were examined for ≥16 years old who arrived from 2011 2014. Results: most often used private physicians (34%), clinics (19%), and emergency rooms (14%). Approximately 15% reported no regular source care, 34% had insurance ≤1...
Allegheny County Pennsylvania has the second highest HIV prevalence in state. In county, racial and ethnic minorities are disproportionately impacted by HIV.In responses to epidemic County, AIDS Free Pittsburgh was created with goals of reducing new infections 75% declaring free (no cases) 2020. uses a collective impact framework which partners pledge collect share data uniformly across health systems, co-organize events for provider community education, enhance access quality healthcare...
Abstract Background Candidemia is a bloodstream infection commonly associated with high morbidity and mortality. Failure to clear candidemia can lengthen hospitalization treatment. Factors clearance are unknown. Methods We analyzed 2017 surveillance data from the Centers for Disease Control Prevention’s Emerging Infections Program. Data eight sites (counties in California, Colorado, Georgia, Minnesota, New Mexico, York, Oregon, Tennessee) were included. Clearance was defined as having blood...
