Liqian Wang published this dataset on 2026-04-04. It contains dietary information, clinical characteristics, strain profiles, and antimicrobial resistance analysis for Clostridioides difficile strains isolated from infants with Clostridioides difficile-associated disease (CDAD). The data likely supports investigation into the association between amino acid–based formula feeding and CDAD risk in children under 2 years old.
Use Cases
- Modeling the association between infant formula type and CDAD risk based on dietary information
- Profiling antimicrobial resistance patterns in pediatric C. difficile strains based on resistance analysis
- Analyzing strain diversity and clinical outcomes based on strain profiles and MLST data
- Investigating clinical characteristics of infants with CDAD based on patient metadata
Strengths
- Dataset is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, allowing for broad reuse and sharing.
- Includes multiple data facets: dietary, clinical, strain profiles, and antimicrobial resistance.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
