TABLE 4.
Higher fungal frequency across the GIT sites of BD donors by cultivationa
| Site | BD positive/ total (n = 6) |
BD % positive | DCD positive/ total (n = 5) |
DCD % positive | P valueb |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stomach | 18/22 | 82 | 5/16 | 31 | P = 0.004 |
| Duodenum | 16/18 | 89 | 6/20 | 30 | P = 0.005 |
| Jejunum | 18/22 | 82 | 4/18 | 22 | P = 0.001 |
| Ileum | 16/24 | 67 | 8/20 | 40 | P = 0.222 |
| Colon | 16/16 | 100 | 4/15 | 29 | P < 0.001 |
a
BD and DCD donor samples were compared for each intestinal site for fungal frequency.
b
Statistical significance values were derived from Fisher’s exact test with a Benjamini-Hochberg multiple comparison correction.
