- W2125868923 abstract "This work was carried out to study the association between lifestyle, health-care practices and incidence of recurrent vulvovaginal candidosis (RVVC) among young women in south eastern Nigeria. It was a multicentre case-control study of 176 women aged between 20 and 35 years recruited from the designated health facilities. Lifestyle and health-care practice structured questionnaires were used to survey the participants. Clinical examination was performed and vaginal swabs were taken from participants for microscopy, culture and sensitivity. The germ tube test was performed for identification of Candida albicans. The results of this study showed that frequent douching with water or other fluids (odds ratio [OR] adjusted = 2.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.25–4.66, P = 0.000), wearing tight nylon/synthetic underwear (OR adjusted = 4.76, 95% CI = 2.28–9.95, P = 0.000), alternative medical treatment for repeated or recalcitrant cases (OR adjusted = 4.84, 95% CI = 2.94–15.91, P = 0.000), were significantly associated with higher odds for RVVC and self-diagnosis and use of over-the-counter antifungal medications (OR adjusted = 4.61, 95% CI = 2.29–9.32, P = 0.000) were associated with RVVC. Results of the fungal cultures showed that C. albicans and non- C. albicans were isolated from 83.7% and 16.3% of participants, respectively. Our results supported the association between some of the hypothesized risk factors and the occurrence of RVVC." @default.
