  • C. auris has been highlighted as one of four fungal pathogens of critical importance in the recently published WHO fungal pathogens priority list due to the number of large outbreaks and its multi-drug resistant nature.

    “As a result, C. auris has been highlighted as one of four fungal pathogens of critical importance in the recently published WHO fungal pathogens priority list in part due to the number of large outbreaks, but also due to the multi-drug resistant nature of the pathogen.74”

    From Epidemiology of Invasive Candidiasis (2024) · cites this paper as [74]

    The Abstract names C. auris as one of four pathogens deemed critically important and says outbreak potential and antifungal-resistance concern were criteria in the WHO ranking. It does not report a number of large C. auris outbreaks, describe C. auris as multidrug-resistant, or specifically assign those reasons to its critical ranking. The passages have no page numbers in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.86)

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.
