Infections Caused by Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2014
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%

Immunoglobulin A vasculitis induced by atypical pneumonia infection with Chlamydophila pneumonia

IDCases, 2022
Infections are a common trigger for IgA vasculitis. Among the bacteria that cause atypical pneumonia, Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection has strongly been associated with IgA vasculitis, with Chlamydophila pneumoniae reported with IgA vasculitis in only one

Single and multiple pathogen associations with cognitive impairment in the Panama Aging Research Initiative Study [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in developing countries is expected to rise as a result of increases in life expectancy and the ageing of the population (1). Accumulating evidence implicates pathogens as triggers of inflammation and development of cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative disorders, including AD (2‐4 ...

Reproductive disorders induced by Chlamydophila spp. infections in an italian mediterranean buffalo (bubalus bubalis) herd

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The Italian Mediterranean Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) has low fecundity and high incidence of abortion. Several studies have associated reproductive failure of water buffalo with viral infections but there is limited information on the role of chlamydial ...

Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection and cardiovascular disease

North American Journal of Medical Sciences, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial vascular inflammatory process; however, the inciting cause for inflammation remains unclear. Two decades ago, Chlamydophila pneumoniae (formerly Chlamydia pneumoniae) infection was proposed as a putative etiologic agent.
