Post‐Mortem Nasal Swab Testing to Reveal Hidden Respiratory Pathogens: Unlocking Public Health Insights in Bangladesh

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
Respiratory deaths in Bangladesh are frequently assigned non‐specific causes because of limited diagnostic information. Through stakeholder consultations, key informant interviews, microbiologist consultations, and literature review, 11 priority respiratory pathogens were identified for potential detection using post‐mortem nasal swab testing and ...

Role of Antibodies in Immunity to Bordetella Infections [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 2003
ABSTRACT The persistence of Bordetella pertussis and B . parapertussis within vaccinated populations and the reemergence of associated disease highlight the need to better understand protective immunity. The present study examined host immunity to

Swedish Infants Developed Pertussis at a Younger Age if Their Mother Was the Possible Source of Infection in 2009–2015

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the possible source of laboratory‐confirmed pertussis in infants under 6 months of age. Methods This nationwide prospective study was based on laboratory‐confirmed cases reported in the enhanced pertussis surveillance in Sweden from 2009 to 2015. The parents or carers of 345 infants were interviewed

Pasteurella multocida and Bordetella bronchiseptica infections in rabbits [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990
The natural history of infection with Pasteurella multocida and Bordetella bronchiseptica in domestic rabbits was studied prospectively at a commercial rabbitry. At weaning, about 25% of rabbits had nasal infections with P. multocida and 75% had infections with B. bronchiseptica.

Evaluation of Amplification Targets for the Specific Detection of Bordetella pertussis Using Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2014
BACKGROUND: Bordetella pertussis infections continue to be a major public health challenge in Canada. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays to detect B pertussis are typically based on the multicopy insertion sequence IS481, which offers

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

Immunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Opportunistic Pulmonary Bordetella hinzii Infection after Avian Exposure

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
We report 2 cases of pulmonary Bordetella hinzii infection in immunodeficient patients. One of these rare cases demonstrated the potential transmission of the bacteria from an avian reservoir through occupational exposure and its persistence in humans ...
