A Practical Approach in Differentiating IBD From Other Causes of Enterocolitis
ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is emerging in Asia, but there are many challenges in making the diagnosis. There is no gold standard for the diagnosis of IBD, which is often made based on a combination of clinical, endoscopic, radiological, and histological features, none of which are specific for the condition.

Genetic Diversity and Virulence Potential of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli O113:H21 Strains Isolated from Clinical, Environmental, and Food Sources [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli strains of serotype O113:H21 have caused severe human diseases, but they are unusual in that they do not produce adherence factors coded by the locus of enterocyte effacement.

ABSTRACT Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are pathogenic E. coli strains that have been associated with a wide range of human clinical illness ranging from mild diarrhoea to bloody diarrhoea (BD) and haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). In its opinion of 18 May 2017, the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety

Genomic Tools for Customized Recovery and Detection of Foodborne Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli
Genomic antimicrobial resistance (AMR) prediction tools have the potential to support foodborne illness outbreak investigations through their application in the analysis of bacterial genomes from causative strains. The AMR marker profile of a strain of interest, initially identified in outbreak-associated clinical samples, may serve as the basis for ...

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli: Factors involved in virulence and cattle colonization [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) cause hemorrhagic colitis (HC) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in humans. Outbreaks are linked to bovine food sources. STEC O157:H7 has been responsible for the most severe outbreaks worldwide.
