Among men with febrile urinary tract infection (FUTI), whether the host's fecal flora is the source for the urine strain (“fecal-urethral” hypothesis), and whether pathogenesis is driven by...

Human clinical isolates of Escherichia coli that are resistant to quinolone or fluoroquinolone agents typically exhibit fewer extraintestinal virulence factors (VFs) than susceptible isolates, along...

Characteristics differentiating Escherichia coli strains that cause cystitis or pyelonephritis from fecal E. coli remain incompletely defined, particularly among adult women in the United States....

Molecular evidence is limited for the hypothesis that humans, dogs, and cats can become colonized and infected with similar virulent Escherichia coli strains. To further assess this possibility,...
Moreno, Eva, Andreu, Antonia, Pigrau, Carles, Kuskowski, Michael A., Johnson, James R., Prats, Guillem
Previous epidemiological assessments of the prevalence versus special-pathogenicity hypothesis for urinary tract infection (UTI) pathogenesis in women may have been confounded by underlying host...

During a 3-year surveillance, six household members (five humans and the family dog) yielded 14 Escherichia coli clones. Virulence genes, group B2, and having caused cystitis (in the mother or dog)...

Johnson, James R., Johnston, Brian, Kuskowski, Michael A., Nougayrede, Jean-Philippe, Oswald, Eric
Epidemiological and phylogenetic associations of the pks genomic island of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC), which encodes the genotoxin colibactin, are incompletely defined. clbB...
