- •
We study Clostridium difficile colonization in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients.
- •
Colonization with C. difficile was common in this population.
- •
Colonization with toxigenic C. difficile was predictive of C. difficile infection.
- •
Colonization with nontoxigenic C. difficile decreases risk of C. difficile infection.
