Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]
Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is ubiquitous. It accounts for 10% of community-acquired pneumonias and 5% of cases of pharyngitis, bronchitis and sinusitis in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts.

Remdesivir for the Treatment of Human Coronavirus OC43 Encephalitis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Human coronavirus OC43 (HCoV‐OC43) is predominantly associated with mild respiratory infections. HCoV‐OC43 also has neuroinvasive properties, and severe encephalitis has been described in immunocompromised patients, with fatal outcomes due to the lack of specific antiviral treatment.

A Case Report of Chlamydia psittaci Infective Endocarditis Complicated With Pneumonia. [PDF]
Psittacosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Chlamydia psittaci and is commonly found in birds and poultry. Human infection is uncommon, and most cases are sporadic. Infection of extrapulmonary organs by Chlamydia psittaci is extremely rare. A rare case of infective endocarditis complicated by pneumonia caused by Chlamydia psittaci was reported, which ...

Zoonotic potential of Chlamydophila [PDF]
The purpose of this article is to present the diseases induced in humans and animals by the different species of Chlamydophila, after providing an overview on the history of these infectious agents and their taxonomy. The route of transmission and the available methods for prevention and control in the different animal species are reviewed.

CulturingChlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]
Chlamydophila pneumoniae (formerly Chlamydia pneumoniae) is an intracellular pathogen responsible for respiratory tract infection. A recent British survey of the microbial aetiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) indicated that C. pneumonia is responsible for 13% of CAP and is the second highest bacterial cause of CAP 1.

Missing links in the divergence of Chlamydophila abortus from Chlamydophila psittaci [PDF]
Pathological and serological evidence and DNA-DNA reassociation data indicate that Chlamydophila psittaci and Chlamydophila abortus are separate species. C. psittaci causes avian systemic disease and C. abortus causes abortion. Both previously belonged to Chlamydia psittaci are associated with zoonotic and enzootic outbreaks.

Infections Caused by Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]
High affinity to the epithelial lining of the airways makes Chlamydophila pneumoniae a common etiological agent of respiratory tract infections (RTI). It causes among others: pharyngitis, tracheitis, sinusitis, otitis media, bronchitis and bronchiolitis, and pneumonia. It is estimated that Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is responsible for about 20%
