Cats as a reservoir of Bartonella henselae for dogs

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019
Bartonellosis is a disease affecting a variety of animals. Many Bartonella infections are zoonotic, including cat scratch disease. Within the genus Bartonella are 45 species, of which more than 10 can infect cats and dogs. Companion animals serve as reservoirs for several zoonotic species of Bartonella, and may also serve as sentinels for zoonotic ...

Diversity of bartonellae in mites (Acari: Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) of boreal forest bats: Association of host specificity of mites and habitat selection of hosts with vector potential

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 518-529, December 2024.
Bats play a major role in the circulation of zoonotic pathogens. Mites (Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) may facilitate the long‐term maintenance (and even local recurrence) of Bartonella‐infestations. Mites may transmit several distinct Bartonella strains, which cluster phylogenetically close to Bartonella species known for their zoonotic role ...

Pseudoinfectious mononucleosis: a presentation of Bartonella henselae infection [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2000
Six children presented during one year with clinical features of infectious mononucleosis, but with laboratory findings of leucocytosis with neutrophilia, increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and hypergammaglobulinaemia. Serology for Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, adenovirus, and Toxoplasma gondii was negative, while anti-Bartonella henselae

Clinical findings, prognostic factors, and outcome of protein‐losing nephropathy in cats: A retrospective study

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 3111-3118, November/December 2024.
Abstract Background Primary glomerular disease resulting in protein‐losing nephropathy (PLN) is an uncommon cause of chronic kidney disease in cats, yet is important to recognize because it warrants specific treatment that impacts outcome. Hypothesis/Objective Characterize clinicopathologic findings, prognostic indicators, and short‐ (≤30 days) and ...
