Genetic relationships among reptilian and mammalian Campylobacter fetus strains determined by multilocus sequence typingKate E Dingle
Nuffield Department of Clinical Laboratory Sciences, Oxford University, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford OX3 9DU, United Kingdom
J Clin Microbiol 48:977-80. 2010..fetus, and there was evidence of recombination among members of these two groups. The reptile group represents a possible separate genomospecies capable of infecting humans...
Stable and noncompetitive RNA internal control for routine clinical diagnostic reverse transcription-PCRKate E Dingle
Nuffield Department of Clinical Sciences, Oxford University, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford OX3 9DU, United Kingdom
J Clin Microbiol 42:1003-11. 2004..During routine testing of 324 consecutive unselected respiratory samples, the presence of the internal control ensured that genuine and false-negative results were distinguishable, thus increasing the diagnostic confidence in the assay...
Mutation in a Lordsdale norovirus epidemic strain as a potential indicator of transmission routesKate E Dingle
Nuffield Department of Clinical Sciences, Oxford University, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom, OX3 9DU
J Clin Microbiol 42:3950-7. 2004..4 to 13.6% in the outer P2 domain of the capsid, which also had a single-amino-acid insertion. Alterations to the capsid structure compared to previous noroviruses may explain the increased number of outbreaks during 2002 and 2003...
Predictors of first recurrence of Clostridium difficile infection: implications for initial managementDavid W Eyre
NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, UK
Clin Infect Dis 55:S77-87. 2012..Risk factors, including increasing age, initial disease severity, and hospital exposure, predict CDI recurrence and identify patients likely to benefit from enhanced initial CDI treatment...
Molecular epidemiology of Clostridium difficile strains in children compared with that of strains circulating in adults with Clostridium difficile-associated infectionNicole Stoesser
Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine, Oxford University, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford OX3 9DU, UK
J Clin Microbiol 49:3994-6. 2011..difficile-associated infections studied (n = 83). No children carried hypervirulent PCR ribotype 027. Children could participate in the transmission of some adult disease-causing genotypes...
Clostridium difficile mixed infection and reinfectionDavid W Eyre
NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom
J Clin Microbiol 50:142-4. 2012..Of 109 sample pairs taken on the same day, 3 (3%) had different genotypes. Considering samples 0 to 7 days apart as the same CDI, 7% of cases had mixed infections with >1 genotype...
Characterisation of Clostridium difficile hospital ward-based transmission using extensive epidemiological data and molecular typingA Sarah Walker
National Institute for Health Research Oxford Biomedical Research Centre, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom
PLoS Med 9:e1001172. 2012..This study aimed to investigate ward-based transmission of C. difficile, by subdividing outbreaks into distinct lineages defined by multi-locus sequence typing (MLST)...

John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, UK
Emerg Infect Dis 14:1620-2. 2008..975 to 0.992 among 620 clinical isolates from Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. This enhanced typing scheme enabled identification of clusters and retained data required for long-range epidemiologic comparisons of isolates...
Host-associated genetic import in Campylobacter jejuniNoel D McCarthy
Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom
Emerg Infect Dis 13:267-72. 2007..Assignment using this signature enables improved prediction of source for pathogens that undergo frequent genetic recombination...
A longitudinal 6-year study of the molecular epidemiology of clinical campylobacter isolates in Oxfordshire, United kingdomAlison J Cody
Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
J Clin Microbiol 50:3193-201. 2012..These data also demonstrated that detailed surveillance at a single site captures information which reflects that observed nationally...
Clonal nature of Campylobacter fetus as defined by multilocus sequence typingMarcel A P Van Bergen
Animal Sciences Group, Division of Infectious Diseases, P.O. Box 65, 8200 AB Lelystad, The Netherlands
J Clin Microbiol 43:5888-98. 2005..Congruence was observed among C. fetus subspecies, sap type, and ST; therefore, MLST confirms that mammalian C. fetus is genetically stable, probably as result of the introduction of a single ancestral clone into a mammalian niche...
Molecular evidence for dissemination of unique Campylobacter jejuni clones in CuraƧao, Netherlands AntillesBirgitta Duim
Department of Medical Microbiology, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
J Clin Microbiol 41:5593-7. 2003..Furthermore, given the observation that C. jejuni-associated diseases appear to be more severe from November to February, it can be speculated that this may be due to the presence of virulent clones with a limited span of circulation...
