species frequently cause bloodstream infections; however, there is a lack of epidemiological studies on candidemia in Oman.
To address this, we conducted a retrospective study at Sultan Qaboos Comprehensive Cancer and Research Center from October 2021 to October 2023.
Our study identified 27 episodes of candidemia among 26 patients with cancer, with an incidence of 4.9 per 1000 admissions. Non- (NAC) prevailed over (70.37% vs 29.62%), with as the predominant NAC species (n = 10; 37%). The 30-day mortality rate was 40.7%, showing no significant difference between NAC and but was notably higher in critically ill patients ( = 0.03).
In Oman, NAC surpasses as a causative pathogen for candidemia with a high mortality rate.
某些菌种常引发血流感染；然而，阿曼缺乏关于念珠菌血症的流行病学研究。
为解决此问题，我们于2021年10月至2023年10月在苏丹·卡布斯综合癌症与研究中心开展了一项回顾性研究。
我们的研究在26例癌症患者中识别出27例念珠菌血症病例，发病率为每1000次入院4.9例。非白色念珠菌（NAC）占主导（70.37%对29.62%），其中近平滑念珠菌是主要的NAC菌种（n = 10；37%）。30天死亡率为40.7%，NAC和白色念珠菌之间无显著差异，但危重症患者的死亡率显著更高（P = 0.03）。
在阿曼，非白色念珠菌作为念珠菌血症的致病病原体超过白色念珠菌，且死亡率很高。
