  • In recent years, some studies have strengthened a hypothesis of an association between IBD and acute diarrheal infection caused by Campylobacter . (marlerclark.com)
  • The first studies that described such a possible association between acute infection and inflammatory bowel disease date back to the '90s. (marlerclark.com)
  • Concerning campylobacter, the results suggest that beetles do not play a significant role as a reservoir of campylobacter from one rotation to the next. (dtu.dk)

  • The use of CIDTs as stand-alone tests for the direct detection of Campylobacter in stool is increasing. (cdc.gov)
  • Non-invasive tests on breath, stool, serum, urine and saliva can also diagnose H.pylori infection reliably. (webmedcentral.com)
  • Cattle are the maintentance hosts for hardjo, but as this is specialised to survive within cattle, the infection is less severe. (thebeefsite.com)
  • infections are responsible for significant diarrheal disease burden across the globe, with prevalence thought to be increasing. (vt.edu)
  • In this study we investigated the effect of different feeding strategies on the prevalence of Campylobacter spp. (petfoodstudies.com)
  • H.pylori infection in children differs from that in adults in its prevalence, presence, site and degree of gastric/duodenal inflammation, lesser likelihood of gastric malignancies, problems in diagnosis and higher rate of antibiotic resistance [14]. (webmedcentral.com)
  • These findings emphasize that diagnostic workups for enteric infections are indicated due to potential human health risks. (vin.com)
  • Campylobacter mainly colonizes the mucus layer of the intestinal tract and is abundantly present in the caecum. (biomedcentral.com)
  • 2019). Thus, Campylobacter has become a significant threat to public health, which drives the need to examine its survival and evolutionary mechanisms in all sources of this pathogen. (frontiersin.org)
  • In fact, without insight into pathogen evolution mechanisms, it is difficult to understand disease transmission, pathogenesis, and the emergence of antibiotic resistance. (frontiersin.org)
  • More recently, the potential for bacterial transmission has been focus of a number of studies (5-7) that attempted to investigate the precise moment when the first contact between the individual and the periodontal pathogen occurs (8). (bvsalud.org)
