Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Previous studies have shown that failure to produce serum antibodies to C. difficile (CD) toxin A is associated with more severe and recurrent C. difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD); and that presence of AA genotype in the interleukin (IL)-8 gene promoter -251 position is associated with increased susceptibility to CDAD. This study examined the relationship between serum immunoglobulin G...
