Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The first volume of the Special Issue “Clostridioides difficile Infection” was published in 2021. It was a successful issue, with 12 published papers. These papers shed light on several aspects of this complex disease, including the Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) clinical course and the mortality rate in different settings and patients’ case mix, the novel risk factors for CDI recurrence and novel therapeutic approaches. This result encouraged us to open a second volume on the same topic.
As a continuation of the Special Issue published in 2021, this second volume will also deliver an invaluable compendium of the latest studies on any aspects concerning CDI.
Dr. Guido Granata
Guest Editor
