Climate change impacts the epidemic of dysentery: determining climate risk window, modeling and projection

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
Dysentery, an acute infectious disease still prevalent in many parts of the world, especially in developing counties, is caused by a group of bacteria known as Shigella . Because of the sensitivity of dysentery to climate change, the relationship between

Assessment on the burden of bacillary dysentery associated with floods during 2005–2009 in Zhengzhou City, China, using a time-series analysis

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2018
Background: We aimed to quantify the impact of few times floods on bacillary dysentery in Zhengzhou during 2005–2009. Methods: The Spearman correlation test was applied first to examine the lagged effects of floods on monthly morbidity of bacillary ...

Impact of climate change on dysentery: Scientific evidences, uncertainty, modeling and projections.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Dysentery is water-borne and food-borne infectious disease and its incidence is sensitive to climate change. Although the impact of climate change on dysentery is being studied in specific areas, a systematic review is lacking.

Guidelines for the treatment of dysentery (shigellosis): a systematic review of the evidence

Paediatrics and International Child Health, 2018
Background: Shigella remains the primary cause of diarrhoea in paediatric patients worldwide and accounts for up to 40,000 deaths per year. Current guidelines for the treatment of shigellosis are based on data which are over a decade old.

Mechanisms of bacillary dysentery: lessons learnt from infant rabbits

Gut microbes, 2020
The bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri causes more than 250 million cases of bacillary dysentery (blood in stool) every year across the world. This human-specific disease is characterized by profuse bloody diarrhea, dramatic ulceration of the colonic ...

Parameter Estimation and Sensitivity Analysis of Dysentery Diarrhea Epidemic Model

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2019
In this paper, dysentery diarrhea deterministic compartmental model is proposed. The local and global stability of the disease-free equilibrium is obtained using the stability theory of differential equations.

Shigella sonnei infection of zebrafish reveals that O-antigen mediates neutrophil tolerance and dysentery incidence

bioRxiv, 2019
Shigella flexneri is historically regarded as the primary agent of bacillary dysentery, yet the closely-related Shigella sonnei is replacing S. flexneri, especially in developing countries.

Perfil clínico y demográfico y factores de riesgo frente a la infección por Clostridium difficile

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2017
Introducción. La enfermedad asociada a Clostridium difficile es la principal causa de diarrea infecciosa adquirida en el hospital; su creciente incidencia, las menores tasas de respuesta al tratamiento inicial y la mayor tasa de recaídas han incrementado
