In this real-world study conducted in Germany, CDI was associated with increased risk of death and substantial costs to health systems due to higher HCRU, especially hospitalisations. HCRU and associated costs were exacerbated by rCDIs.

Background: The association between surgical approach and post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) in cirrhotic patients is poorly understood. We hypothesize that patients will have similar rates of liver failure regardless of whether they undergo minimally invasive liver resection (MILR) or ope …

Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile), as the major pathogen of diarrhea in healthcare settings, has become increasingly prevalent within community populations, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. However, the therapeutic options for Clostridioides difficile infe …

Intestinal microecological transplantation is an effective treatment for relieving the clinical symptoms of chronic radiation enteritis by altering the composition of the intestinal flora. This study provides a new approach for treating patients with chronic radiation enteritis.

Functional constipation (FC) is a common disorder that is characterized by difficult stool passage, infrequent bowel movement, or both. FC is highly prevalent, recurs often, accompanies severe diseases, and affects quality of life; therefore, safe and effective therapy with long-term benefits is urg …

Due to its complex pathogenesis, treatment of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) continues to be a therapeutic challenge. Of late, gut microbiome has garnered much attention for its role in the pathogenesis of various gastrointestinal and liver diseases and its potential therapeutic use. New evidence sugge …

Infections caused by Gram-negative pathogens are increasingly prevalent and are typically treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics, resulting in disruption of the gut microbiome and susceptibility to secondary infections1-3. There is a critical need for antibiotics that are selective both …

Quercetin may effectively reduce bone loss in OVX rats via the "intestinal flora - SCFAs - inflammatory" signaling pathway.

Minnie Hatch was in her late teens when she was diagnosed with the infection. Since then, she has had recurrent episodes and dealt with care challenges along the way.

The antibiotic was effective against more than 130 multidrug-resistant bacterial strains

Clostridioides difficile has emerged as a major cause of life-threatening diarrheal disease. Conventional antibiotics used in current standards of care exacerbate the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains and pose a risk of recurrent C. difficile infection (CDI). Thus, there is an urgent need fo …

Our study fills this knowledge gap by finding that alterations in gut microbiota have an independent impact on hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in the GDM state. In vivo and in vitro, gut dysbiosis is linked to adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance via the bacterial product SCFAs in …

The use of rifaximin significantly reduces infections in patients with cirrhosis and HE. Despite rifaximin was associated with a decreased all-cause mortality, this impact was not statistically significant in the adjusted analysis.

Swine farm associated C. difficile ST11 carried fewer virulence genes than ST11 strains collected from NCBI database. It is critical to monitor the evolution of C. difficile strains to understand their changing characteristics, host-switching, and develop effective control and prevention strategies.

WHO published the first global guidelines to prevent the occurrence of bloodstream and other infections caused by catheters placed in minor blood vessels.

Previous research has suggested that common antibiotics can disturb the gut microbiome.

Study offers proof-of-concept for developing antibiotics that can kill pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria while sparing beneficial species in the gut

Ten Clostridioides difficile isolates representing the top 10 ribotypes collected in 2016 through the Emerging Infections Program underwent long-read sequencing to obtain high-quality reference genome assemblies. These isolates are publicly available through the CDC & FDA Antibiotic Resis …

Check out the latest studies, management strategies, patient advocacy, and other important news involving this condition.

Market Overview Clostridium difficile infections are a major cause of hospital acquired diarrhea particularly among older patients receiving antibiotic treatment during a hospital stay Diagnostic tests are used to detect presence of Clostridium difficile bacteria and toxins to confirm diagnosis ...

The "gut-skin" axis has been proved and is considered as a novel therapy for the prevention of skin aging. The antioxidant efficacy of oligomannonic acid (MAOS) make it an intriguing target for use to improve skin aging. The present study further explored whereby MAOS-mediated gut-skin axis balance …

Background: The interaction between commensal bacteria and the host is essential for health and the gut microbiota-brain axis plays a vital role in this regard. Obesity as a medical problem not only affect the health of the individuals, but also the economic and social aspects of communities. …

Fecal Microbiota Spores, Live-Brpk (Vowst) to Prevent Clostridioides difficile Infection

Fidaxomicin treated patients had statistically increased odds of rCDI. Compared to other treatments, fidaxomicin was inferior to metronidazole for rCDI in our cohort;Hypervirulent C. difficile was not associated with death.Vancomycin resistance of C. difficile statistically decreased, …

Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a significant cause of mortality in patients with sepsis. Despite extensive research, its exact cause remains unclear. Our previous research indicated a relationship between non-hepatic hyperammonemia (NHH) and SAE. This study aimed to investigate the relati …
