Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
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. It is also involved in exacerbations of chronic bronchitis and asthma. Moreover, C.

Chlamydophila pneumoniae

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2010
Chlamydophila pneumoniae is estimated to cause about 10% of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) cases and 5% of bronchitis cases, although most patients with C pneumoniae infection are asymptomatic, and the course of respiratory illness is relatively mild.

Where is Chlamydophila pneumoniae pneumonia?

Respiratory Investigation, 2020
Molecular diagnostic methods have recently gained widespread use, and consequently, the importance of viral pathogens in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) has undergone re-evaluation. Under these circumstances, the role of Chlamydophila pneumoniae as a pathogen that causes CAP also needs to be reviewed.We reviewed articles that contained data on the ...

Chlamydophila pneumoniae Myopericarditis in a Child

Pediatric Cardiology, 2008
An 11-year-old boy with serologically confirmed Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection presented with clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic changes consistent with myopericarditis. No reports on C. pneumoniae myopericarditis in children are found in the medical literature.

Chlamydophila pneumoniae in chronic rhinosinusitis

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2006
The intracellular bacterium Chlamydophila pneumoniae (Cp) was infrequently found in nasopharynx and lacking in biopsies from the middle turbinate in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. Compared with healthy controls, patients suffering from CRS had significantly higher and more prevalent antibody titers to Cp. However, an association between CRS and

Chlamydophila pneumoniae

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005
Summary Chlamydophila (Chlamydia) pneumoniae, a gram-negative obligate intracellular bacterium, is a widespread respiratory pathogen. Chronic C. pneumoniae infection has been suggested as a trigger/ promoter of inflammation that may result in vascular lesions. Although the genome of C. pneumoniae has been sequenced completely this information

Chlamydophila pneumoniae serology: cross-reaction with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2013
Atypical pathogens Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydophila pneumoniae play an important role in community-acquired pneumonia. However, it has been pointed out that positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA, Hitazyme C. pneumoniae) IgM reactivity is frequent among M. pneumoniae pneumonia patients.

Chlamydophila Pneumoniae Infection in Adult Asthmatics Patients

Journal of Asthma, 2008
This study has attempted to investigate the prevalence of Chlamydophila pneumoniae (CP) infection in patients with asthma.A total of 84 patients with stable asthma (58 males + 26 females; mean age +/- SD; 37.3 +/- 11.0 years), 22 patients with asthma exacerbation (17 males + 5 females; mean age +/- SD; 33.2 +/- 9.1 years), and 34 healthy adults (18 ...

Extrarespiratory Chlamydophila pneumoniae Infection

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2004
A series of 3 patients with prolonged fever due to Chlamydophila pneumoniae is reported. Laboratory data revealed hepatitis and various haemogram abnormalities. The main features of acute extrarespiratory infection caused by C. pneumoniae are discussed.

Association of Alzheimer's disease and Chlamydophila pneumoniae

Journal of Infection, 2008
This paper critically reviews the association of infection by Chlamydophila pneumoniae (C. pneumoniae) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The aging population has increased interest in finding the cause of AD, but studies have yielded contradictory results that are likely due to varying diagnostic tools and different uses of diagnostic tests.
