Addressing the consequences of missing vaccines: A case report of pertussis in a child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports
Pertussis, caused primarily by Bordetella pertussis and occasionally by Bordetella parapertussis, remains a major public health issue despite widespread vaccination efforts. Immunocompromised children, such as those with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, are

Diagnosis of whooping cough in Switzerland: differentiating Bordetella pertussis from Bordetella holmesii by polymerase chain reaction.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bordetella holmesii, an emerging pathogen, can be misidentified as Bordetella pertussis by routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In some reports, up to 29% of the patients diagnosed with pertussis have in fact B.

The seroepidemiology of Bordetella pertussis infection in Western Europe [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 2004
High titres of pertussis toxin (PT) antibody have been shown to be predictive of recent infection with Bordetella pertussis. The seroprevalence of standardized anti-PT antibody was determined in six Western European countries between 1994 and 1998 and related to historical surveillance and vaccine programme data.

Evaluation of PCR for Diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis Infections [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT PCR, using primers PIp1 and PIp2, was evaluated for the detection of DNA from Bordetella pertussis in bacterial strains and in nasopharyngeal samples from patients with a cough lasting at least 7 days. The assay could detect DNA from 6 CFU of B.
