The liver in boutonneuse fever [PDF]

open access: yesGut, 1974
Hepatic lesions were studied for the first time in 13 cases of boutonneuse fever (Mediterranean exanthematous fever). The glutamic-oxalacetic transaminases were raised in eight patients, the glutamic-pyruvic transaminases showed an increase in 10 patients, alkaline phosphatases in seven of the 10 patients investigated, and conjugate bilirubin showed ...

Spotless Boutonneuse Fever

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1992
Mediterranean spotted fever is endemic in southern France, especially during summer. Clinical diagnosis is generally based upon the presence of a febrile eruption with or without the typical tache noire. Usual laboratory findings, which include thrombocytopenia, elevated levels of hepatic enzymes, and hyponatremia, are not specific to the disease.

Boutonneuse Fever and Climate Variability

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  Researchers have long appreciated the role of climate in vector‐borne diseases, including the resurgence of boutonneuse fever (BF). Portugal usually is classified as having temperate Mediterranean climate. In this new century, in analyzing the data from the Meteorology Institute, this pattern has changed and an accentuated variability in ...

Boutonneuse fever transmitted by conjunctival inoculation

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1988
We report three cases (two adult males and a 12-year-old child) of boutonneuse fever produced by inoculation of the conjunctival mucosa (probably through accidental entry of R. conorii fluid into the eyes through rubbing or splashing). All three patients developed similar symptoms of disease, including high fever, headache, maculopapular exanthem, and ...

Familial cases of boutonneuse fever

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1987
Pairs of cases of Boutonneuse Fever (BF) occurred in three families. The illness appeared almost simultaneously in both members of each family, but was generally more serious in one as judged by clinical and laboratory parameters. The possibility of a "bed rickettsiosis", that is reactivation of rickettsiae by the blood meal obtained from the first ...

Role of TLR4 Receptor Polymorphisms in Boutonneuse Fever [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2005
The genetics of the interaction between host and microbes plays an essential role in the survival of the individual and attainment of longevity. The activation of toll-like receptor (TLR)4 plays a key role in natural and clonotypic immune responses. We evaluated whether TLR4 genotype is a component of genetic background protective versus rickettsiosis ...

ARDS Associated with Boutonneuse Fever

Chest, 1989
The adult respiratory disease syndrome is associated with multiple disorders. At least one of the rickettsial diseases, RMSF, has been reported to be associated with noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. We report herein another rickettsial disease, boutonneuse fever, which is produced by Rickettsia conorii and is usually a mild disease, that in our patient ...
