Evaluation of three commercial rapid immunoassays for the diagnosis of Clostridioides difficile infection

Microbiology Spectrum
Current guidelines recommend the use of a two-step algorithm for the laboratory diagnosis of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). Several commercial rapid immunoassays that detect both GDH and toxin A/B in stool samples are available and could be ...

Dogs as carriers of virulent and resistant genotypes of Clostridioides difficile [PDF]

, 2022
While previous research on zoonotic transmission of community-acquired Clostridioides difficile infection (CA-CDI) focused on food-producing animals, the present study aimed to investigate whether dogs are carriers of resistant and/or virulent C ...

Antibiotic Stewardship Implementation and Antibiotic Use at Hospitals With and Without On-site Infectious Disease Specialists. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundMany US hospitals lack infectious disease (ID) specialists, which may hinder antibiotic stewardship efforts. We sought to compare patient-level antibiotic exposure at Veterans Health Administration (VHA) hospitals with and without an on-site ID

Gut Microbiota Diversity of Preterm Neonates Is Associated With Clostridioides Difficile Colonization

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
In adults, Clostridioides difficile infections are associated with alterations of the intestinal bacterial populations. Although preterm neonates (PN) are frequently colonized by C. difficile, limited data are available regarding the relationship between

Clostridioides difficile Flagella

International Journal of Molecular Sciences
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.
