TL;DR: Specific markers of innate and adaptive immunity distinguish CDI from all other groups, suggesting potential clinical utility for identifying which NAAT- and toxin-positive patients with diarrhea truly have CDI.
Fecal Mycobiota Combined With Host Immune Factors Distinguish Clostridioides difficile Infection From Asymptomatic Carriage.
Yangchun Cao,Yangchun Cao,Lamei Wang,Lamei Wang,Shanlin Ke,Javier A. Villafuerte Galvez,Nira R. Pollock,Nira R. Pollock,Caitlin Barrett,Rebecca Sprague,Kaitlyn Daugherty,Hua Xu,Qianyun Lin,Junhu Yao,Yulin Chen,Ciaran P. Kelly,Yang-Yu Liu,Xinhua Chen +17 more
TL;DR: This study provides specific markers of stool fungi combined with host immune factors to distinguish CDI patients from Carrier and highlights the importance of gut mycobiome in CDI, which may have been underestimated.

Laxative Use Does Not Preclude Diagnosis or Reduce Disease Severity in Clostridiodes difficile Infection.
Nicole White,Rafael Mendo-Lopez,Konstantinos Papamichael,Christine A Cuddemi,Caitlin Barrett,Kaitlyn Daugherty,Nira R. Pollock,Nira R. Pollock,Ciaran P. Kelly,Carolyn D. Alonso +9 more
TL;DR: This study found similar rates of severe CDI and seriousCDI-attributable clinical outcomes in CDI-diagnosed patients who did or did not receive laxatives, and carried a potential for harm due to delayed diagnosis and treatment.

Williams,Kaitlyn Daugherty,Christine A Cuddemi,Javier Villafuerte-Gálvez,Nicole White,Xinhua Chen,Hua Xu,Rebecca Sprague,Caitlin Barrett,Mark Miller,Agnès Foussadier,Aude Lantz,Alice Banz,Nira R. Pollock,Nira R. Pollock,Nira R. Pollock +21 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the colostridioides difficile infection (CDI) severity and outcomes using a single molecule array (SMA) and found that the toxin concentration was correlated with severe baseline disease, severe CDI-attributable outcomes, and recurrence.
