Fulminant Clostridium difficile enteritis after proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastamosis.

Authors:
Elena Boland Jon S Thompson

Gastroenterol Res Pract 2008 1;2008:985658. Epub 2009 Feb 1.

Department of Surgery, University of Nebraska Medical Center, 983280 Nebraska Medical Center Omaha, NE 68198-3280, USA.

Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) infection of the small bowel is very rare. The disease course is more severe than that of C. difficile colitis, and the mortality is high. We present a case of C. difficile enteritis in a patient with ileal pouch-anal anastamosis (IPAA), and review previous case reports in order to better characterize this unusual condition.

Difference in Vitamin D Levels Between Children with Enteritis and Those with Other Acute Infectious Enteritis.

Authors:
Sang Woo Park Young June Lee Eell Ryoo

Pediatr Gastroenterol Hepatol Nutr 2021 Jan 8;24(1):81-89. Epub 2021 Jan 8.

Department of Pediatrics, Gachon University Gil Medical Center, Incheon, Korea.

Purpose: A steady increase in enteritis (CDE) has been reported recently. CDE is associated with intestinal dysbiosis, and vitamin D receptors are known to play an important role in this microbial imbalance as immunological regulators. We investigated the difference in vitamin D levels between children with CDE and those with other acute infectious enteritis. Read More

Department of Intensive Care 4131, Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Background: Critically ill children are at risk of stress-induced gastrointestinal ulceration. Acid suppressants are frequently used in intensive care units even though there is uncertainty about the benefits and harms. With this systematic review, we aimed to assess patient-important benefits and harms of stress ulcer prophylaxis (SUP) in children in intensive care. Read More

Authors:
Jennifer Chaitman Frédéric Gaschen

Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract 2021 Jan 29;51(1):219-233. Epub 2020 Oct 29.

Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine, Skip Bertman Drive, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA. Electronic address:

In people, fecal microbiota transplantation is recognized as the best treatment modality for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection in people, and its value is currently investigated in the treatment of other diseases associated with an abnormal gut microbiome. In dogs, intestinal dysbiosis has been documented in many acute and chronic digestive diseases as well as in diseases of other organ systems. There are only few published studies evaluating the benefits of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in canine gastrointestinal disorders. Read More

Xuzhou Key Laboratory of Laboratory Diagnostics, School of Medical Technology, Xuzhou Medical University, Xuzhou 221004, People's Republic of China.

Background: infection (CDI) has become one of the most important factors threatening human health, and about 20-30% antibiotic-related diarrhea cases and almost all pseudomembranous enteritis cases are related to CDI. The high recurrence of and the emergence of drug resistance make clinical treatment of CDI difficult. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a non-antibiotic-alternative therapy against CDI.
