Aetiology and antifungal susceptibility of yeast bloodstream infections in a Hungarian university hospital between 1996 and 2000
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the aetiology and susceptibility of different Candida species originating from blood cultures received from different clinical wards of the University Hospital in Szeged, Hungary, from 1996 to 2000. A total of 145 episodes of fungaemia occurred in 68 patients. In 73.5% of the patients the infections were due to Candida albicans, 7.3% to C. parapsilosis, 5.9% to C krusei, 4.4% to C. tropicalis and 3% each to C. glabrata, other Candida spp. and Cryptococcus neoformans. There were no appreciable differences in the distribution of yeast species during the 5-year period: C. albicans remained the predominant species causing bloodstream infections in this hospital, similar to the results of other studies (Norway, SENTRY Program in USA, Canada and South America). Most of the Candida isolates (39.3%) were from blood cultures of patients hospitalised in surgical wards, 28.3% were from adult intensive care units (ICUs), 13.8% from paediatric ICUs, 11% from haematology and 7.6% from cardiology departments. MICs for amphotericin B, fluconazole and itraconazole were determined for 83% of the isolates. All isolates were susceptible to amphotericin B. The percentage of yeast isolates with decreased susceptibility or resistance to fluconazole was smaller (15.7%) than that for itraconazole (24%).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
