In this review, we describe the clinical significance of EAEC regarding patterns of infection in humans, transmission, reservoirs, and symptoms. Manifestations associated with EAEC infection include watery diarrhea, mucoid diarrhea, low-grade fever, nausea, tenesmus, and borborygmi.

Infectious disease. Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC or EAggEC) are a pathotype of Escherichia coli which cause acute and chronic diarrhea in both the developed and developing world. [1][2] They may also cause urinary tract infections. [2] EAEC are defined by their "stacked-brick" pattern of adhesion to the human laryngeal epithelial ...
Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) are emerging pathogens most commonly associated with acute and persistent paediatric diarrhoea and growth retardation in developing nations 1. In addition, EAEC are a major cause of acute diarrhoea in travellers to developing countries 2 and persistent enteric infection in HIV/AIDS patients 3.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are an increasingly important cause of diarrhoea. E coli belonging to this category cause watery diarrhoea, which is often persistent and can be inflammatory.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) represents a heterogeneous group of E. coli strains. The pathogenicity and clinical relevance of these bacteria are still controversial. In this review, we describe the clinical significance of EAEC regarding patterns of infection in humans, transmission, reservoirs, and symptoms.
Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) has been implicated as a common cause of diarrhea in multiple settings and associated with linear growth faltering among children in low-income countries. Unlike other E. coli pathotypes EAEC stands alone in employing a phenotypic, rather than genotypic, definition.
1 wrz 2024 · Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) strains including those of serogroup O111 are important causes of diarrhea in children. In the Czech Republic, no information is available on the etiological role of EAEC in pediatric diarrhea due to the lack of their targeted surveillance.
