摘要
This study was conducted to identify the mycological pattern, and to calculate the diagnostic accuracy of serum (1,3)-beta-D-glucan for screening fungal sepsis in 351 high-risk neonates. Candida tropicalis was the most common isolate (n=16, 38.1%). At optimum cut-off (47.2 pg/mL), sensitivity and specificity of serum (1,3)-beta-D-glucan were 92.9% and 69.9%, respectively.
