[1.2] [#Clostridium difficile associated disease] - Elevated #Calprotectin levels correlated significantly with R-CDI [#Clostridium difficile associated disease] - patients who are likely to develop R-CDI have higher levels of #Calprotectin, together with a higher abundance of #Fusobacterium and lower abundance of #Senegalimassilia, #Prevotella and #Ruminococcus. [1.3] [#Inflamatory bowel disease] [#Ruminococcus gnavus] - in patients with Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), which can be a complication of IBD, R. gnavus has been found to be more abundant compared to HC and IBD patients without CDI.References Notes[ ]
