Q Fever Endocarditis and a New Genotype of Coxiella burnetii, Greece
Underdiagnosis of Coxiella burnetii infections in Greece is possible because of lack of awareness by physicians, and most suspected cases are in patients with no bovine contact. We found serologic evidence of C.

Lack of association between serological evidence of past Coxiella burnetii infection and incident ischaemic heart disease: nested case-control study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Coxiella burnetii causes the common worldwide zoonotic infection, Q fever. It has been previously suggested that patients who had recovered from acute Q fever (whether symptomatic or otherwise) may be at increased risk of ischaemic heart ...

Lethal Case of Bourbon Virus Leading to Shock and ECMO Utilization
We present a lethal case of Bourbon virus infection in a 63‐year‐old Caucasian, diabetic male who was previously in good health. The patient had spent time in the wooded areas of Bourbon County, Kansas, and removed three ticks from his body 5 days prior to presentation.

Q Fever and Coxiella burnetii.
Q熱はリケッチアの一種であるCoxiella burnetiiによって起こる人獣共通感染症である。本疾患は世界中に分布しているが,これまでわが国ではほとんど関心がはらわれてこなかった。1988年に国内でQ熱の患者からC.burnetiiが分離されたのを機に血清疫学的調査が開始され,わが国にもQ熱が存在していることを示す証拠が蓄積されてきた。したがって,今後はわが国においても,熱性疾患の診断に際しては本疾患を鑑別診断の一つにあげることが必要である。一方,C.burnetiiは宿主・微生物相互作用を考えるうえで興味深い多くの生物学的特徴を有している。欧米では活発な研究が行われているが,なお未解決の問題が数多く残されている。このような状況をふまえ,本稿ではC.burnetiiの特徴とQ熱のアウトライン ...
