Population infection estimation from wastewater surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 in Nagpur, India during the second pandemic wave (2024)
Journal Article

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has emerged as an effective environmental surveillance tool for predicting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) disease outbreaks in high-income countries (HICs) with centralized sewage infr... Read More about Population infection estimation from wastewater surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 in Nagpur, India during the second pandemic wave.

Case Series: Efficacy of Polyclonal Intravenous Immunoglobulin for Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection (2024)
Journal Article

Background: Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) for Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) no longer features in treatment guidelines. However, IVIg is still used by some clinicians for severe or recurrent CDI (rCDI) cases. The main objective of this... Read More about Case Series: Efficacy of Polyclonal Intravenous Immunoglobulin for Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection.

Protective effects of fecal microbiota transplantation against ischemic stroke and other neurological disorders: an update (2024)
Journal Article

The bidirectional communication between the gut and brain or gut-brain axis is regulated by several gut microbes and microbial derived metabolites, such as short-chain fatty acids, trimethylamine N-oxide, and lipopolysaccharides. The Gut microbiota (... Read More about Protective effects of fecal microbiota transplantation against ischemic stroke and other neurological disorders: an update.

Beneficial effects of fecal microbiota transplantation in recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (2023)
Journal Article

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is highly effective in preventing recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI). However, the mechanisms underpinning its clinical efficacy are incompletely understood. Herein, we provide an overview of rC...

RNA-Seq of untreated wastewater to assess COVID-19 and emerging and endemic viruses for public health surveillance (2023)
Journal Article

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic showcased the power of genomic sequencing to tackle the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. However, metagenomic sequencing of total microbial RNAs in wastewater has the potential to assess multiple infectio... Read More about RNA-Seq of untreated wastewater to assess COVID-19 and emerging and endemic viruses for public health surveillance.

The synergistic effect of Levilactobacillus breves IBRC-M10790 and vitamin D3 on Helicobacter pylori-induced inflammation (2023)
Journal Article

Owing to the emergence and spread of multidrug resistance mechanisms in Helicobacter pylori, achieving a successful eradication has become exceedingly difficult. Thus, this study for the first time determines the effect of a combination of vitamin D3... Read More about The synergistic effect of Levilactobacillus breves IBRC-M10790 and vitamin D3 on Helicobacter pylori-induced inflammation.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on prevalence of Clostridioides difficile infection in a UK tertiary centre (2021)
Journal Article

Serious concerns have been raised about a possible increase in cases of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted a retrospective observational single centre study which revealed that total combined community... Read More about Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on prevalence of Clostridioides difficile infection in a UK tertiary centre.

A Multi-Factorial Observational Study on Sequential Fecal Microbiota Transplant in Patients with Medically Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection (2021)
Journal Article

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is highly effective in recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI); increasing evidence supports FMT in severe or fulminant Clostridioides difficile infection (SFCDI). However, the multifactorial mechanis...
