Incidence and Outcomes of <i>Candida</i> Bloodstream Infection in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

In this cohort study of SOTRs, candidemia was an uncommon complication after organ transplant, with lung transplant recipients at the highest risk. Candidemia was associated with increased mortality. Further research is needed to better identify vulnerable subpopulations and to develop targeted strategies for early intervention.
