Clostridioides difficile and Enterococci's Interplay in the Human Gut: Bacterial Alliance or Competition? A Systematic Literature Review.

ABSTRACT: Clostridioides difficile and Enterococcus spp. are two common bacterial pathogens populating the human microbiota. We possess scant data on how Clostridioides difficile interacts with Enterococcus spp. in the gut microbiota in subjects colonized with Clostridioides difficile or during a Clostridioides difficile infection. We carried out a systematic review of studies on Enterococcus spp. and Clostridioides difficile's interaction in the gut microbiota and on the effect of Enterococcus spp. gut colonization on CDI development. Studies on Enterococcus spp. and Clostridioides difficile's interaction in the gut microbiota and on the effect of Enterococcus spp. gut colonization on CDI were searched using the sea
