Chlamydia Pneumoniae Pneumonia
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2000Chlamydia pneumoniae is a common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. At present there is no "gold'' standard for diagnosis and there is no easily accessible means of rapid diagnosis available. The best indication of acute C. pneumoniae infection is a fourfold rise in antibody titer, accompanying a positive polymerase chain reaction or culture.

Transmission of Chlamydia pneumoniae
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1993To investigate the transmission of Chlamydia pneumoniae via hands and environmental surfaces, its survival on various surfaces was studied. The organism remained viable on formica countertops for 30 h and in tissue paper for 12 h. Measurable quantities of chlamydiae were transferred from these environmental surfaces to hands.

Chlamydia pneumoniae and atherosclerosis
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2000Chlamydia pneumoniae (C. pneumoniae) is a common respiratory pathogen. Many reports have documented the presence of C. pneumoniae in atheromatous coronary arteries, aorta, carotid arteries, and peripheral arteries using a variety of techniques. There is clear experimental evidence that C.

Chlamydia Pneumoniae and Atherosclerosis
Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 1995used, different antibody titers were considered to indicate positive results, and different types of adjustments for cardiac risk factors were made. The problem with C. pneumoniae seroepidemiologic studies that involve adults is the frequency of antibody in the population.

Research in Veterinary Science, 1968
Summary An agent that was shown to be a member of the genus Chlamydia was isolated from the lungs of a calf which had enzootic pneumonia. Month-old calves were infected intratracheally with the agent and were killed 2, 4, 8 and 15 days after inoculation. Clinical signs were limited to a rise in temperature lasting 2 to 3 days.

Chlamydia pneumoniae and Atherosclerosis
Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2002Chlamydia pneumoniae, a human respiratory pathogen, has been linked to atherosclerotic disease based on sero-epidemiologic studies, direct detection of the organism in atherosclerotic lesions, animal experiments and tissue culture. In this review paper we propose to interpret results in line with the biology of Chlamydia with persistence of Chlamydia ...

Chlamydia pneumoniaeandMycoplasma pneumoniae
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection occurs worldwide and is the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in 5- to 20-year-olds. The most reliable diagnostic test is the enzyme immunoassay, which allows immunoglobulin (Ig)G and IgM titration and presents 92% sensitivity and 95% specificity on paired samples.

This chapter examines discusses C. pneumoniae as a common human respiratory pathogen that has an uncertain mode of transmission and involves infected respiratory tract secretions. It also looks at reports on the spread of C. pneumoniae within families and enclosed populations, such as military recruits, prisons, and nursing homes.

[Chlamydia pneumoniae pneumonia].
Ryoikibetsu shokogun shirizu, 1999Chlamydia pneumoniae causes respiratory tract infections, and it is transmitted by air and fomites. It is probably more frequent than it is described, due to asymptomatic or mild symptomatic patients. They respond to macrolides, tetracyclines and quinolones, though patients may recover slowly.

Chlamydia pneumoniae Pneumonia
2015Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP) is a new species of Chlamydia discovered in the 1980s, which has a widespread distribution across the world. It can cause human diseases such as pneumonia and is an important pathogen of human respiratory tract infections.
