Genetic Susceptibility Factors for Candidemia.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a prospective case-control physiopathological study, which main objective is to determine the genetic host factors predisposing to candidemia. Secondary objectives are to develop new diagnosis tools using the biological collection, to describe and update epidemiology, to analyse the influence of genetic polymorphisms on prognosis.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Candidemia patients These patients are included in the study after the reception of a positive blood culture for Candida sp. |
Genetic: Analysis of genetic polymorphisms
An analysis of the SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphism) of 25 candidate genes will be performed. This analysis will be completed by a genome wide association study.
|
Control patients These patients are matched on case patients on the following criteria: Age+/-5 years length of hospitalisation type of ward type of surgery for surgical patients IGS2 for intensive care patients |
Genetic: Analysis of genetic polymorphisms
An analysis of the SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphism) of 25 candidate genes will be performed. This analysis will be completed by a genome wide association study.
