*: S - number of susceptible yeast isolates; DD - number of dose-dependent susceptible yeast isolates; R - number of resistant yeast isolates. Susceptible, dose-dependent or resistant classification was based on the values recommended by the CLSI (2008, 2012), even though such documents were especially developed for Candida spp. and Cryptococcus neoformans. ND: not determined.
