The antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence factors of Clostridium difficile clinical isolates
in Taiwan have not previously been reported. One hundred and thirteen isolates were …

Objective. The aim of this study was to perform molecular characterization for and determine
the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Clostridium difficile collected from hospitals during …

Clostridium difficile is a Gram-positive, spore-forming obligate anaerobe responsible for
antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Its virulence is associated with the production of endotoxins …

Clostridium difficile is a predominant cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. It is
increasingly difficult to treat C. difficile infection efficiently owing to its multidrug resistance. In …

Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is a leading cause of healthcare-associated morbidity and
mortality worldwide. In Thailand, CDI exhibits low recurrence and mortality and its molecular …

Clostridium difficile infections (CDI) are a growing concern in North America, because of
their increasing incidence and severity. Using integrated approaches, we correlated …

Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is the leading cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea
worldwide. In order to gain a better understanding about the molecular epidemiology of C …

Clostridium difficile infection control strategies require an understanding of its epidemiology.
In this study, we analysed the toxin genotypes of 130 non-duplicate clinical isolates of C …

The incidence of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) has risen markedly since 2003, however
data from China are limited. A 1-year study was conducted at the University Hospital …

While the developed world has seen a significant increase in the number of scientific articles
on Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), the developing world still lags behind on this subject …
