Candida glabrata emerges as the most common cause of candidemia: analysis of a large hospital-based database, United States, 2016–2024

academic.oup.com/cid/advance-...

Jeremy Gold & colleagues at CDC Mycotic Diseases Branch, @jessicalittlemd.bsky.social and @drluiso.bsky.social
Line graph showing the percentage distribution of Candida species from 2016 to 2024. Candida albicans is the most common species in most years, declining from about 36% to 32%. Candida glabrata increases overall, rising from about 25% in 2016 to a peak around 34% in 2024. Candida parapsilosis fluctuates between roughly 8% and 17% before declining to about 8% by 2024. Candida tropicalis and unspecified/other species remain relatively stable at lower levels (about 6–12%). Multiple-species infections decrease slightly over time. Candida auris is absent before 2022 and then increases to about 5% by 2023–2024.
