The recent emergence of a highly related virulent Clostridium difficile clade with unique characteristics

13 Sept 2019

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Clostridium difficile is a major global human pathogen divided into five clades, of which clade 3 is the least characterized and consists predominantly of PCR ribotype (RT) 023 strains. Our aim was to analyse and characterize this clade. METHODS: In this cohort study the clinical presentation of C. difficile RT023 infections was analysed in comparison with known 'hypervirulent' and non-hypervirulent...
