C Diff - Clostridium difficile
(Greek kloster (κλωστήρ), spindle, and
Latin difficile,[1] difficult), also
known as "CDF/cdf", or "C.
diff", is a species of
Gram-positive bacteria of the genus
Clostridium. Clostridia are anaerobic, spore-forming rods
(bacillus).[2] C. difficile is the most
serious cause of antibiotic-associated
diarrhea (AAD) and can lead to pseudomembranous colitis, a severe infection of the colon,
often resulting from eradication of the
normal gut flora by antibiotics.[3] The
C. difficile bacteria, which naturally
reside in the body, become overgrown:
The overgrowth is harmful because the
bacterium releases toxins that can cause
bloating, constipation, and diarrhea
with abdominal pain, which may become
severe. Latent symptoms often mimic some
flu-like symptoms. Discontinuation of
causative antibiotic treatment is often
curative.[2] In more serious cases, oral
administration of metronidazole or
vancomycin is the treatment of choice.
Relapses of C. difficile AAD have been
reported in up to 20% of cases.[2]

Infectious Disease -
An infectious disease is a clinically evident disease
resulting from the presence of pathogenic microbial agents, including pathogenic viruses, pathogenic bacteria, fungi, protozoa, multicellular parasites,
and aberrant proteins known as prions.
These pathogens are able to cause
disease in animals and/or plants.
Infectious pathologies are usually qualified as contagious diseases
(also called communicable diseases) due
to their potentiality of transmission
from one person or species to
another.[1] Transmission of an
infectious disease may occur through one
or more of diverse pathways including
physical contact with infected
individuals. These infecting agents may
also be transmitted through liquids,
food, body fluids, contaminated objects,
airborne inhalation, or through
vector-borne spread.[2]
The term infectivity describes the ability of an organism to enter, survive and multiply in the host,
while the infectiousness of a disease
indicates the comparative ease with
which the disease is transmitted to
other hosts.[3] An infection however, is
not synonymous with an infectious
disease, as an infection may not cause
important clinical symptoms or impair
host function.[2]
