Article Synopsis
- Clostridium innocuum, once thought harmless, is a resistant bacterium linked to various infections and gastrointestinal issues, prompting a study on its genetic makeup and pathogenic potential.
- The research involved analyzing 112 isolates to identify genetic variations and measure biofilm production, revealing significantly different biofilm-producing capacities among genetically distinct groups.
- Findings indicate that a specific genetic clade of C. innocuum creates substantial biofilms, enhancing its resistance to high levels of vancomycin, potentially contributing to its pathogenicity.
Objective: Coronary artery disease (CAD) and cancer are the two leading causes of death worldwide. Evidence suggests the existence of shared mechanisms for these two diseases. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigateassociation between CAD and incident cancer risk.
