Sequelae Following Acute Encephalitis Syndrome Caused by Orientia Tsutsugamushi

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2020
We evaluated 146 patients with acute encephalitis syndrome caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, after median interval of 5 months of hospitalization, to estimate the proportion and spectrum of disability. Fifty-six (38.4%) had mild, whereas 19 (13%) had moderate to severe degree of disability.

Prevalence and risk factors for murine typhus, scrub typhus and spotted fever group rickettsioses among adolescent and adult patients presenting to Yangon General Hospital, Yangon, Myanmar

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 9, Page 966-977, September 2025.
Abstract Objectives To inform patient management and disease prevention, we sought to estimate the prevalence of, and identify risk factors for, scrub typhus, murine typhus, and spotted fever group rickettsioses (SFGR) among febrile patients presenting to hospital in Myanmar.

Estimating scrub typhus and murine typhus incidence among adolescents and adults in Yangon, Myanmar

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 9, Page 978-986, September 2025.
Abstract Objectives Rickettsioses are frequent causes of treatable febrile illness in Southeast Asia, including Myanmar. Accurate estimates of the incidence of rickettsioses are needed to inform investments in disease prevention and control. We sought to estimate the incidence of rickettsioses among adults and adolescents by combining sentinel hospital

Diagnosis of severe scrub typhus infection by next-generation sequencing:a case report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Scrub typhus is an acute febrile illness, which was caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi and transmitted through the bite of chiggers. The diagnosis of scrub typhus could be missed diagnosis due to the absence of the pathognomonic eschar.

Laboratory-acquired scrub typhus and murine typhus infections: The argument for risk-based approach to biosafety requirements for Orientia tsutsugamushi and Rickettsia typhi laboratory activities [PDF]

, 2014
This study examined the literature on laboratory-acquired infections (LAIs) associated with scrub typhus (Orientia tsutsugamushi) and murine typhus (Rickettsia typhi) research to provide an evidence base for biosafety and biocontainment.

Scrub typhus‐associated movement and gait disorders: A systematic review with principal component analysis and in silico mechanistic modelling

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 6, Page 459-480, June 2025.
Abstract Background Orientia tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus, is increasingly recognised for its neurological complications. Among these, movement and gait disorders are poorly understood. We systematically examined their clinical spectrum and explored underlying mechanisms through in‐silico protein–protein interaction modelling ...

Prolonged Fever in Children: An Inpatient Diagnostic Framework for Infections in Australia

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 532-539, April 2025.
ABSTRACT There are many causes of fever in children, ranging from common and self‐limiting to serious and life threatening. Careful assessment of children with prolonged fever without an obvious or identified source requires detailed history and examination with consideration of infections unique to the specific geographical region and individual ...
