Typing of Clostridium difficile [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2001
Clostridium difficile is primarily recognised as a nosocomially acquired pathogen manifesting in gastrointestinal disease subsequent to the patient receiving broad-spectrum antibiotics. Infection can be sporadic, but outbreaks commonly occur within a ward or hospital as a result of cross-infection. Since the 1980s, the epidemiology of C.

Association between proton pump inhibitor therapy and clostridium difficile infection: a contemporary systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction Emerging epidemiological evidence suggests that proton pump inhibitor (PPI) acid-suppression therapy is associated with an increased risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI).

Long‐term outcomes of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with antithymocyte globulin–based myeloablative conditioning in pediatric refractory or relapsed non‐Hodgkin lymphoma

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Single‐center retrospective data showed that ATG‐based myeloablative haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation provides durable remission and favorable long‐term survival in children with refractory/relapsed non‐Hodgkin lymphoma, achieving high engraftment rates, low relapse incidence, and acceptable toxicity.

Clostridium difficile has a single sortase, SrtB, that can be inhibited by small-molecule inhibitors. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Bacterial sortases are transpeptidases that covalently anchor surface proteins to the peptidoglycan of the Gram-positive cell wall. Sortase protein anchoring is mediated by a conserved cell wall sorting signal on the anchored protein ...

Catechins and Their Effect on the Gut Microbiome in Health and Cancer

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Catechins are a group of flavonoids found primarily in green tea, fruits, and berries; they play a significant role in the modulation of the gut microbiota, thereby having an impact on gut health and cancer prevention. Owing to their low bioavailability, catechins are transformed by the gut microbiota into various bioactive metabolites such as

Asymptomatic and yet C. difficile-toxin positive? Prevalence and risk factors of carriers of toxigenic Clostridium difficile among geriatric in-patients

BMC Geriatrics, 2016
Background Clostridium difficile infections (CDI) are the most frequent cause of diarrhoea in hospitals. Geriatric patients are more often affected by the condition, by a relapse and complications.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural
