Abstract

It is important to realize that guidelines cannot always account for individual variation among patients. They are not intended to supplant physician judgment with respect to particular patients or special clinical situations. IDSA considers adherence to these guidelines to be voluntary, with the ultimate determination regarding their application to be made by the physician in the light of each patient's individual circumstances.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Enhanced infection control practices, including appropriate catheter use, antibiotic stewardship, and antifungal prophylaxis practices, might be responsible for some of the decreases in candidemia incidence.

    “Enhanced infection control practices, including appropriate catheter use to limit catheter-related bloodstream infections (42–44), antibiotic stewardship, and antifungal prophylaxis practices, might be responsible for some of the decreases.”

    From Population-Based Active Surveillance for Culture-Confirmed Candidemia — Four Sites, United States, 2012–2016 (2019) · cites this paper as [43]

    Recommendation 13 advises early removal of a central venous catheter when it is the presumed source of candidemia and removal is safe. This supports appropriate catheter management, the part of the sentence to which the citation is attached, but does not establish that catheter practices caused the reported decreases in candidemia incidence. The cited passages have no page numbers. (LLM, conf=0.82)

  • The 2016 IDSA guidelines recommend echinocandins as the initial therapy for treatment of most types of invasive candidiasis among adults.

    “the 2016 guidelines recommend echinocandins as the initial therapy for treatment of most types of invasive candidiasis among adults (43).”
  • Women with RVVC may require long-term maintenance therapy.

    “however, women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis may require long-term maintenance therapy.”
  • Topical azole antifungals, widely used to treat VVC, are used less commonly in RVVC.

    “Topical azole antifungals, widely used to treat VVC, are used less commonly in RVVC.17,20”
  • The treatment regimen for RVVC is dependent on causative yeast(s)/Candida species present, and azole susceptibility of cultured strains.

    “The treatment regimen is dependent on causative yeast(s)/Candida species present, and azole susceptibility of cultured strains. 17”

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.
