title: [Seasonal distribution of intestinal fungal infection by the genus Candida].
abstract: To follow-up seasonal distribution of intestinal fungal infection by Candida genus (CGF) in patients and healthy subjects 3786 stool samples have been examined. There were 1302(34.4%) stools of patients and 2484 of healthy subjects of which 421 (16.9%) samples were infected by CGF. In both groups of examinees infection by CGF had a seasonal character. Significantly lower incidence was found within the period January-March (the three-month average percentage of infection was 25.2%, that is, 13.9%) than within the period October-December (the three-month average percentage of infection distribution was 42.7%, that is 20.4%).
