The gut bacterial community potentiates <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> infection severity

2022-02-01

Abstract excerpt

The severity of Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI) has increased over the last few decades. Patient age, white blood cell count, creatinine levels as well as C. difficile ribotype and toxin genes have been associated with disease severity. However, it is unclear whether there is an association between members of the gut microbiota and disease severity. The gut microbiota is known to interact with C. diff...
