Service evaluation to establish the sensitivity, specificity and additional value of broad-range 16S rDNA PCR for the diagnosis of infective endocarditis from resected endocardial material in patients from eight UK and Ireland hospitals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Infective endocarditis (IE) can be diagnosed in the clinical microbiology laboratory by culturing explanted heart valve material. We present a service evaluation that examines the sensitivity and specificity of a broad-range 16S rDNA polymerase chain ...

Pulmonary Valve Prosthesis Endocarditis Caused By Coxiella burnetii

open access: yesThe Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2018
Background Coxiella burnetii is a gram-negative bacterium assigned to the family of Rickettsiaceae. Less than 1% of Q-fever infection leads to infective endocarditis (IE). Cases of reported pulmonary valve (PV) prosthesis endocarditis are scarce.

Seroprevalence of Coxiella burnetii and Brucella abortus among pregnant women. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Coxiella burnetii and Brucella abortus are two intracellular bacteria implicated in zoonotic miscarriage. In the present study, C. burnetii and B. abortus seroprevalence was compared among women from London with and without miscarriage. Coxiella burnetii

Comparison of Coxiella burnetii Excretion between Sheep and Goats Naturally Infected with One Cattle-Associated Genotype

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
The main reservoir of Coxiella (C.) burnetii are ruminants. They shed the pathogen through birth products, vaginal mucus, faeces and milk. A direct comparison of C.

European Rabbits as Reservoir forCoxiella burnetii [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
We studied the role of European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) as a reservoir for Coxiella burnetii in the Iberian region. High individual and population seroprevalences observed in wild and farmed rabbits, evidence of systemic infections, and vaginal shedding support the reservoir role of the European rabbit for C. burnetii.
