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.

Feral pigeons as reservoirs for hazardous Chlamydophila psittaci strains with zoonotic potential [PDF]
Chlamydophila psittaci is found in pigeons worldwide. The abundance of feral pigeons living in close contact with humans and livestock are considered a significant risk factor for human and farm animal infections.

Zoonotic atypical pneumonia due to Chlamydophila psittaci: First reported psittacosis case in Taiwan [PDF]
Human psittacosis caused by Chlamydophila psittaci is one of the most common zoonotic atypical pneumonias featuring pulmonary as well as extrapulmonary infections. Most of the cases involve avian contact history especially with psittacine birds.

Chlamydophila psittaci in homing and feral pigeons and zoonotic transmission [PDF]
Chlamydiosis is a zoonotic disease in birds caused by Chlamydophila psittaci, an obligate intracellular bacterium. There are seven known avian outer-membrane protein A genotypes, A–F and E/B. The importance of genotyping lies in the fact that certain genotypes tend to be associated with certain hosts and a difference in virulence.

Community-Acquired <i>Chlamydia psittaci</i> Severe Pneumonia: A Case Report. [PDF]
Chlamydia psittaci, the causative agent of psittacosis, is an intracellular bacterium typically transmitted from birds to humans, leading to atypical pneumonia. We present a case of a 60‐year‐old man with no reported bird exposure but a history of working as a chief cook, potentially exposed to poultry.

Molecular Detection of Chlamydophila Abortus In Aborted Fetal Tissues by Using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) In Tabriz, Northwest of Iran [PDF]
Enzootic abortion of ewes (EAE) induced by Chlamydophila abortus (formerly Chlamydia psittaci serotype1) is a major cause of reproductive failures in most sheep producing countries.

Marginal zone lymphoma: 2023 update on diagnosis and management
Abstract Disease overview Marginal zone lymphomas (MZL) are collectively the second most common type of indolent lymphoma. Diagnosis Three subtypes of MZL are recognized: splenic, extranodal, and nodal. The diagnosis is secured following biopsy of an involved nodal or extranodal site demonstrating a clonal B‐cell infiltrate with CD5 and CD10 negative ...

Chlamydia psittaci infection in canaries heavily infested by Dermanyssus gallinae [PDF]
Dermanyssus gallinae is a haematophagous ectoparasite responsible for anemia, weight loss, dermatitis and a decrease in egg production. Dermanyssus gallinae may play a role in the modulation of the host immune system, maybe predisposing the host to some ...

Abstract Xenotransplantation has the potential to address shortages of organs available for clinical transplantation, but concerns exist regarding potential risks posed by porcine microorganisms and parasites (MP) to the health of human recipients. In this study, a risk‐based framework was developed, and expert opinion was elicited to evaluate porcine ...
