Description:
<jats:p>The majority of recently published studies indicate a greater incidence and mortality due to Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hospitalization, older age, the use of antibiotics, immunosuppression, proton pump inhibitors (PPI), and chronic diseases such as CKD are responsible for the increased prevalence of infections. The aim of the study is to identify clinical indicators allowing, in combination with artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, the most accurate assessment of the patients being at elevated risk of CDI.</jats:p>
