Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli associated with a foodborne outbreak of gastroenteritis [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2008
This study investigated two foodborne outbreaks of gastroenteritis that occurred 10 days apart among individuals who had meals at the restaurant of a farm holiday resort. Mild gastrointestinal symptoms were reported and none of the patients needed hospitalization. Mean incubation times were 45 and 33 h, and the overall attack rates

Molecular Characterization of Virulent Genes and Antimicrobial Resistance Patterns of Escherichia coli Isolated From Calf Scours in Western Iran

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study in Western Iran analysed E. coli in diarrhoeic neonatal calves and identified 307 isolates from 350 faecal samples. The pathotypes included EHEC (36.59%), EPEC (20.42%), ETEC (14.46%), STEC (12.34%) and NTEC (11.48%), with four STEC O157:H7 isolates. Serotypes O103 and O15 were the most common.

Facing the D‐Ilemma of Heat Resistance Parameters: From Pathogen Risk Assessment to Surrogate Selection Challenges in the Fruit Juice and Nectar Production

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the years, numerous D‐ and z‐values have been published in the scientific literature. While these values initially appear to be valid criteria for assessing and comparing the heat resistance of different microorganisms under the same conditions or the same microorganism under different conditions, this is not always the case.

Use of quantitative molecular diagnostic methods to investigate the effect of enteropathogen infections on linear growth in children in low-resource settings: longitudinal analysis of results from the MAL-ED cohort study

The Lancet Global Health, 2018
Summary: Background: Enteropathogen infections in early childhood not only cause diarrhoea but contribute to poor growth. We used molecular diagnostics to assess whether particular enteropathogens were associated with linear growth across seven low ...

HIV and Diarrhea: Clinical Characteristics and Etiology at a High‐Complexity Center in Southwest Colombia

AIDS Research and Treatment, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection remains highly prevalent and represents a significant economic burden on healthcare systems. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported 39 million people living with HIV (PLWH) in 2023. In Colombia, 185,954 prevalent cases were reported during 2024. Diarrhea affects up to 50% of PLWH.

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation as a Rescue Therapy for Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection in a Patient With Lupus

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) remains a major clinical challenge, particularly when it is refractory or recurrent. We describe a 68‐year‐old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and other comorbidities who developed fulminant refractory CDI, characterized by ileus and persistent symptoms despite a course of oral vancomycin.
