Description
Badis Tlili and co-authors test a blood marker for a serious fungal infection in intensive care patients, in a study from two thousand twenty-four. The infection is invasive candidiasis, which grows slowly in lab cultures and can be missed. The marker is a part of the fungal wall that leaks into blood, checked each week in patients at risk.
Eighty-five patients had over one hundred tests at a hospital unit in Tunis care. The test was fair at finding true cases and better at ruling the infection out when the result was negative. Most positive results did not mean true infection. Readers learn the main value here is to stop needless antifungal drugs when the test is negative.
