Observational study of chemotherapy-induced Clostridium difficile infection in patients with lung cancer
2018
Background
Diarrhea post-antibiotic use is primarily attributed to Clostridium difficile infection (CDI)-induced mucosal lesions, and evidence of CDI in patients undergoing chemotherapy without prior antibiotic treatment is also increasing. However, few studies have investigated the relationship between chemotherapy use and diarrhea. This study aimed to determine whether the incidence of CDI increased in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy even without prior antibiotic treatment.
