Azole Resistance in Candida parapsilosis From Patients With Burns in Mexico: A Genomic and Phylogenetic Analysis [PDF]

Mycoses
ABSTRACT Background Candida species are common causes of nosocomial infections. Candida parapsilosis has emerged as an important pathogen. Mortality rates associated with invasive C. parapsilosis infections range from 14.5% to 47%, with azole resistance estimated between 4% and 15%.

Identification of a novel Candida metapsilosis isolate suggests ongoing hybridization. [PDF]

, 2021
Candida metapsilosis is a member of the C. parapsilosis species complex, a group of opportunistic human pathogens. Of all the members of this complex, C. metapsilosis is the least virulent, and accounts for a small proportion of invasive
