Severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia: clinical characteristics and risk factors.

Annals of Palliative Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND Psittacosis ranges from a mild illness to fulminant severe pneumonia with multi-organ failure. It's crucial to understand the clinical characteristics and identify risk factors for a better outcome.

Clinical Analysis of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing Confirmed Chlamydia psittaci Pneumonia: A Case Series and Literature Review

Infection and Drug Resistance, 2021
Introduction Chlamydia psittaci infection is a zoonotic infectious disease, which mainly inhaled through the lungs when exposed to the secretions of poultry that carry pathogenic bacteria.

First report of caprine abortions due to Chlamydia abortus in Argentina. [PDF]

, 2019
Infectious abortions of goats in Argentina are mainly associated with brucellosis and toxoplasmosis. In this paper, we describe an abortion outbreak in goats caused by Chlamydia abortus. Seventy out of 400 goats aborted.

Metagenomic next-generation sequencing in the diagnosis of severe pneumonias caused by Chlamydia psittaci

Infection, 2020
Chlamydia psittaci infection in humans can lead to serious clinical manifestations, including severe pneumonia, adult respiratory distress syndrome, and, rarely, death. Implementation of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) gives a promising new

Pathogen-host reorganization during Chlamydia invasion revealed by cryo-electron tomography [PDF]

, 2014
Invasion of host cells is a key early event during bacterial infection, but the underlying pathogen-host interactions are yet to be fully visualised in three-dimensional detail.

Comparative Analysis of Chlamydia psittaci Genomes Reveals the Recent Emergence of a Pathogenic Lineage with a Broad Host Range

mBio, 2013
Chlamydia psittaci is an obligate intracellular bacterium. Interest in Chlamydia stems from its high degree of virulence as an intestinal and pulmonary pathogen across a broad range of animals, including humans. C.

Chlamydiosis in British Garden Birds (2005–2011): Retrospective Diagnosis and Chlamydia psittaci Genotype Determination [PDF]

, 2014
The significance of chlamydiosis as a cause of mortality in wild passerines (Order Passeriformes), and the role of these birds as a potential source of zoonotic Chlamydia psittaci infection, is unknown.

Molecular characterization of Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia psittaci plasmids [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1986
Plasmids from Chlamydia trachomatis LGV-434 (serotype L2) and Chlamydia psittaci meningopneumonitis strain Cal-10 were cloned into the BamHI and EcoRI sites of pBR322, respectively. The recombinant plasmids pCTL2 and pCPMn, each containing an entire respective chlamydial plasmid, were transformed into Escherichia coli.
