Freeze-dried fecal samples are biologically active after long-lasting storage and suited to fecal microbiota transplantation in a preclinical murine model of Clostridioides difficile infection

Gut Microbes, 2020
Fecal microbiota transplantation is now recommended for treating recurrent forms of Clostridioides difficile infection. Recent studies have reported protocols using capsules of either frozen or freeze-dried stool allowing oral administration in in- and ...

Clostridioides difficile: A diagnostic intervention

Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology, 2022
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

An incidental finding of mesenteric hematoma in a patient with a new diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Mesenteric hematomas (MHs) are relatively rare and are characterized by localized bleeding in the mesenteric vascular tree presenting with abdominal pain, vomiting, abdominal distension, masses, and hypotension. We report a case of a MH which was incidentally found in a 10‐year‐old patient with a new diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (UC).

Phage therapy for Clostridioides difficile infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Clostridioides difficile is endemic in the intestinal tract of healthy people. However, it is responsible for many healthcare-associated infections, such as nosocomial diarrhea following antibiotic treatment. Importantly, there have been cases of unsuccessful treatment and relapse related to the emergence of highly virulent strains of C.

Dietary Prebiotics Modulate Omeprazole‐Induced Alterations in the Gut Microbial Signature

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
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 ...

The Bacterial Gut Microbiota of Adult Patients Infected, Colonized or Noncolonized by Clostridioides difficile

Microorganisms, 2020
Gut microbiota composition in patients with Clostridioides difficile colonization is not well investigated. We aimed to identify bacterial signatures associated with resistance and susceptibility to C.

Impact of ribotype on Clostridioides difficile diagnostics [PDF]

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2019
AbstractThis study investigates the performance of diagnostic methods for detection of Clostridioides difficile infection in Sweden, including impact of PCR ribotype on diagnostic performance. Between 2011 and 2016, a total of 17,878 stool samples from 26 laboratories were tested by either well-type enzyme immunoassays (EIAs), membrane bound EIAs, cell

Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
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
