EnterohemorrhagicEscherichia coli
New England Journal of Medicine, 1987The syndrome of hemorrhagic colitis was defined as a clinically distinct entity only about 15 years ago. Although it may have features similar to bacterial dysenteries due to shigella or campylobacter, pseudomembranous enterocolitis due to Clostridium difficile, ischemic colitis, and acute inflammatory bowel disease, hemorrhagic colitis is ...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli: A Family of Emerging Pathogens
Digestive Diseases, 2008Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) have emerged over the last decade as important enteric pathogens because of their potential to induce both hemorrhagic colitis and fatal hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). HUS following EHEC colitis has become the leading cause of pediatric renal failure requiring kidney transplant in North America.

Intrahost Genome Alterations in Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli
Gastroenterology, 2009Bacterial chromosomes are not fixed molecules; they evolve over the course of infections in human beings. During infection, a variety of strong selective pressures are exerted on the pathogen. The resulting genetic changes that occur in intestinal pathogens might influence clinical outcome and have an impact on diagnosis and epidemiology ...

EnterohemorrhagicEscherichia coli
Postgraduate Medicine, 1998Since 1982, several outbreaks of hemorrhagic colitis due to EHEC, or E coli O157:H7, have occurred in the United States and other parts of the world. Contaminated, undercooked ground beef has been most frequently implicated in the outbreaks, although unpasteurized dairy products and other foods have also been the source of infection in sporadic cases ...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Infections and the Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome
Medical Clinics of North America, 2013Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC; Shiga toxin/verotoxin-producing E. coli) can cause bloody diarrhea and the hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS), typically following consumption of contaminated food (including ground beef, leafy greens, and sprouts) and water.

EnterohemorrhagicEscherichia coli
2014Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli isolates are categorized into specific groups (pathotypes) based on virulence properties, mechanisms of pathogenicity, clinical syndromes, and distinct O:H serotypes. This chapter focuses on enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), which among the E.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection.
Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2019Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) can cause severe foodborne disease with ab- dominal cramps and bloody diarrhea. EHEC infection was recognized in 1982. In Japan 3000- 4000 cases are reported annually. Primary sources of EHEC outbreaks are raw or under- cooked meat products, and human-to-human infection also can occur.
