Presentation

To present a possible association between cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) and infection with Escherichia coli. Four neonates with deep CVT occurring during an E. coli infection are presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Entire Body System

  • Fever

    Probiotic treatment was associated with a larger increase in Bristol stool scale scores and more fever, headache and nausea after the ETEC challenge compared with the placebo treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    E. coli symptoms also may include vomiting and fever, although fever is an uncommon symptom. [about-ecoli.com]

  • Fatigue

    Symptoms of infection include: Nausea or vomiting Severe abdominal cramps Watery or very bloody diarrhea Fatigue Fever To help avoid food poisoning and prevent infection, handle food safely. [wexnermedical.osu.edu]

  • Diarrhea

    RESULTS: Prevalence of STEC infection was 4.1% among subjects presenting with watery diarrhea for ≤ 5 days' duration, bloody diarrhea for ≤ 36 hours' duration, or both. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Enteroaggregative E coli (EAggEC) is primarily associated with persistent diarrhea in children in developing countries, and enteroadherent E coli (EAEC) is a cause of childhood diarrhea and traveler's diarrhea in Mexico and North Africa. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  • Nausea

  • Hemorrhagic Diarrhea

    A 49-year-old healthy Japanese woman presented with hemorrhagic diarrhea because of Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli infection, and then hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) developed in the patient. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    This organism may cause septicemia, neonatal meningitis, infantile gastroenteritis, tourist diarrhea, and hemorrhagic diarrhea. An E. coli infection may also arise due to environmental exposure. [encyclopedia.com]

Treatment

For the first time, stx expression was followed in human colonic environment: at 9 and 12 h post EHEC infection, probiotic treatment significantly decreased stx mRNA levels. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis

Knowledge of the long-term prognosis of acute toxigenic E. coli ingestion, based on the presentation of acute illness, is important for patient counseling and follow-up. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis In most cases of O157:H7, symptoms last for about a week and recovery is often spontaneous. Ten percent of individuals with E. coli O157:H7 infection develop HUS; 5% of those will die of the disease. [encyclopedia.com]

Etiology

METHODS: We performed a prospective study to determine the etiology of diarrheal illness among patients and control subjects of all ages presenting to the emergency departments and outpatient clinics of 2 large academic hospitals in Baltimore, Maryland [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology of E. coli O157:H7 The disease etiology is universal and can be foodborne or environmental amongst others. [ehagroup.com]

[…] latent UPEC infection, suggest that deficiency in a key autophagy protein can be protective against infection in an animal model of one of the most common diseases of women worldwide, and may have significant clinical implications for understanding the etiology [pnas.org]

Escherichia coli have many different types of etiological agents. There are four different types of serotypes for E. coli. These main types are unique according to the virulence mechanism. [austincc.edu]
