Contribution of the Oral and Gastrointestinal Microbiomes to Bloodstream Infections in Leukemia Patients

ABSTRACT Bloodstream infections (BSIs) pose a significant mortality risk for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. It has been previously reported that intestinal domination (>30% relative abundance [RA] attributed to a single taxon) with the infecting taxa often precedes BSI in stem cell transp...
