title: The significance of candiduria.
abstract: Candida, which is not detectable in the urine of healthy individuals, was found in 6.5% of patient's urine. Most of the patients developing candiduria had higher-titered circulating antibody to the fungus than healthy persons did. There existed a definite relationship between the serum antibody titer and the duration of candiduria. These two variables reflected the status of the patient.
