title: Escherichia coli O157 and human disease.
abstract: In the 15 years since its discovery, Escherichia coli O157 infection has become an important public health problem of the developed world, causing concern not only because of its rise in incidence, but also because of the severity of its complications. Research is still at an evolutionary phase, often providing more questions than answers. The most recent developments in human infection are presented in this review.
