C. auris persists on human skin.
“Taken together, these studies show that C. auris persists on skin, which predisposes a patient to infection (16).”

C. auris skin colonization predisposes patients to infection.

C. auris colonizes human skin, which is its primary reservoir.
“Skin is considered the primary reservoir for C. auris, which differs from other Candida species that are more frequently associated with the gastrointestinal, oral, and urinary tracts (16).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
