Candida Infections: An Overview
Abstract
The range of human infections caused by the yeast Candida albicans and a handful of related species is considerable. They range from relatively trivial conditions such as oral and genital thrush to fatal, systemic superinfections in patients who are already seriously ill with other diseases. Interest in Candida infections, and in C. albicans in particular, has become huge in recent years as fatal infections have become more prevalent and new Candida-based pathologies have been recognized. There is now even a large pseudoscientific cult based on the notion that chronic allergy to Candida can cause all sorts of common illnesses. The medical importance of Candida infections and the scientific value of C. albicans as a model for fungal cellular development have stimulated enormous advances in our understanding of the epidemiology of candidosis, pathogenesis of the disease, and the genetics and biochemistry of C. albicans.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
