Gut Microbiota Diversity of Preterm Neonates Is Associated With Clostridioides Difficile Colonization

Abstract: In adults, Clostridioides difficile infections are associated with alterations of the intestinal bacterial populations. Although preterm neonates (PN) are frequently colonized by C. difficile, limited data are available regarding the relationship between C. difficile and the intestinal microbiota of this specific population. Therefore, we studied the intestinal microbiota of PN from two multicenter cohorts using high-throughput sequencing of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. Our results showed that alpha diversity … Show more

“… 19 Both the EPIFLORE (2011) and ClosNEC (2015–16) cohorts were multicentre NEC case–control studies involving 12 French NICUs, enrolling preterm neonates with gestational age less than 32 weeks . 9 , 20 No NEC outbreak was reported during the inclusion periods. These studies were conducted in accordance with the relevant French guidelines and regulations, and informed consent was obtained from the parents of all enrolled children.…”

“…The EPIFLORE study took place in 2011, and the ClosNEC study was conducted between 2015 and 2016. These were NEC case-control multicenter studies that involved preterm neonates less than 32 weeks of gestational age in 12 French NICUs ( 3 , 21 ). NEC cases and control PN were obtained from the same NICU and were matched for gestational age, birth weight, type of feeding, and mode of delivery.…”
