Pneumonia is an inflammation or infection of the lungs most commonly caused by bacteria or viruses, but it can also result from opportunistic fungi. Pneumonia occurs when the air sacs and the small airways in the lungs fill with liquid and therefore they cannot function properly. When gas exchange is impeded, the body cannot take in oxygen as it normally would. Oxygen is vital for the body's cells and it is needed for the aerobic respiration; the breakdown of glucose for obtaining energy for the cellular metabolism. Following morphological and biochemical investigations performed in 94 isolated strains, 53 % were identified as Candida albican and 18 % strains as Candida tropicalis. In cases where antibiotics or other drug treatments have been applied, the frequency and the trend to chronicle development of the Candida increases. The incidence of Candida is primarily related to the endocrine status. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
