Infections due to caspofungin-resistant Candida isolates in patients exposed to caspofungin therapy are increasing. We report here a nested case-control study which aimed at identifying factors associated with bloodstream infections caused by Candida spp. having reduced susceptibility to caspofungin (CRSC) in adults suffering from hematological malignancies. In univariate and multivariate analyses, infections with CRSC were associated with caspofungin exposure in the previous 30 days (odds ratio [OR] = 5.25; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.68-16.35) and with an age of ≤ 65 years (OR = 3.27; 95% CI, 1.26-8.50).
在接受卡泊芬净治疗的患者中，由对卡泊芬净耐药的念珠菌分离株引起的感染正在增加。我们在此报告一项巢式病例对照研究，旨在确定与血液感染相关的因素，这些感染是由患有血液恶性肿瘤的成年人中对卡泊芬净（CRSC）敏感性降低的念珠菌引起的。在单因素和多因素分析中，与 CRSC 感染相关的因素是在过去 30 天内暴露于卡泊芬净（比值比 [OR] = 5.25；95%置信区间 [95%CI]，1.68-16.35）和年龄 ≤ 65 岁（OR = 3.27；95%CI，1.26-8.50）。
