Abstract: < 0.001) but not with nonsusceptible strains. We report previously unobserved inter- and intraindividual heterogeneity in MRE fecal levels, suggesting that quantitative surveillance is more informative than qualitative surveillance of hospitalized patients. In addition, our study highlights the relevance of incorporating antibiotic treatment and susceptibility data of gut-colonizing pathogens for future clinical studies and in clinical decision-making.
