Clostridioides difficile Flagella
Clostridioides difficile is an important pathogen for humans with a lead in nosocomial infection, but it is also more and more common in communities. Our knowledge of the pathology has historically been focused on the toxins produced by the bacteria that remain its major virulence factors.

Dietary Prebiotics Modulate Omeprazole‐Induced Alterations in the Gut Microbial Signature
Dietary prebiotic sources such as blueberries and strawberries may help improve proton pump inhibitor (PPI)‐induced gut dysbiosis. These berries represent a promising nutritional strategy for mitigating PPI‐associated gut dysbiosis and inflammation. ABSTRACT Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used to treat heartburn and acid‐related disorders ...

Whole genome metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiome of differently fed infants identifies differences in microbial composition and functional genes, including an absent CRISPR/Cas9 gene in the formula-fed cohort [PDF]
Background: Advancements in sequencing capabilities have enhanced the study of the human microbiome. There are limited studies focused on the gastro-intestinal (gut) microbiome of infants, particularly the impact of diet between breast-fed (BF) versus ...

Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia
ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy and remains one of the most common causes of cancer‐related death in children and adolescents. Five‐year overall survival rates now exceed 90% with current multidrug chemotherapeutic regimens. This improvement, coupled with the toxicity of chemotherapy, has led to the

Clostridioides difficile: A diagnostic intervention
Background:Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a leading cause of healthcare-associated infection and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Multiple strategies have been implemented to optimize the diagnostic accuracy of CDI testing algorithms. However, overdiagnosis of C. difficile colonization remains a challenge especially in
