Show abstract
Among 1282 patients with a positive Clostridioides difficile PCR test who were retested within 14 days, the proportion of positive tests rapidly decreased on successive days within the first week since initiation of treatment. Between days 7 and 14 after treatment initiation, approximately 25% of tests remained positive.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
