无症状口腔念珠菌携带已被广泛研究的成人，但很少在婴儿。本研究旨在确定健康婴儿口腔念珠菌无症状携带情况及其与年龄、性别、喂养方式和使用奶嘴的关系。拭子技术用于口腔念珠菌分离。从48%的婴儿中分离出了细菌，与年龄、性别或母乳喂养或奶瓶喂养的婴儿之间没有显著关系。同样，母亲阴道念珠菌病史或尿布疹与口腔念珠菌携带无显著关系。经常吮吸奶嘴的婴儿口腔念珠菌携带率明显较高，表明存在感染源。
Asymptomatic oral candidal carriage has been extensively studied in adults, but only rarely in infants. The present investigation aimed to determine the asymptomatic oral carriage of candidal species in healthy infants and its relationship to age, sex, feeding pattern and use of a pacifier. The swab technique was used for oral candidal isolation. Candidal species were isolated from 48% of the infants without a significant relationship to age, gender or between breast-fed or bottle-fed infants. Similarly, a history of maternal vaginal candidosis, or presence of nappy rash, had no significant relationship to oral candidal carriage. Infants who routinely sucked a pacifier had a significantly higher rate of oral candidal carriage, suggesting a reservoir of infection.
