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

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...
