PREVALENCE OF RELATIVE BRADYCARDIA IN ORIENTIA TSUTSUGAMUSHI INFECTION
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2003We investigated 100 febrile patients infected with Orientia tsutsugamushi (the etiologic agent of scrub typhus) for the presence of relative bradycardia, defined as in increase in heart rate of < 10 beats/minutes/1°C increase in temperature. The median heart rate response for the entire febrile scrub typhus population was 9.3 beats/minute/°C and the

Biology of Orientia tsutsugamushi
2016Orientia tsutsugamushi is an intracellular, Gram-negative bacterium belonging to order Rickettsiales and is the causative agent of scrub typhus. The organism is transmitted to human host by chiggers; the larval stage of trombiculid mites and transovarial transmission is thought to be the only mechanism for its maintenance in the mites.

OCCURRENCE OF ORIENTIA TSUTSUGAMUSHI IN SMALL MAMMALS FROM THAILAND
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2003Extensive sampling of small mammals was conducted in eight provinces of Thailand between September 9, 1992 and April 29, 2001. A total of 3,498 specimens representing 22 species were collected. Eighty-eight percent (3,089 of 3,498) of the animals were collected from a region in Chiangrai Province, which is commonly recognized as endemic for human scrub

Orientia tsutsugamushi infection: overview and immune responses.
Microbes and infection, 2001Orientia tsutsugamushi, an obligate intracellular bacterium, was isolated for the first time in 1930. Infections by virulent strains are characterized by fever, rash, eschar, pneumonia, myocarditis, and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Here we review the general aspects of O.

Antigenic types of Orientia tsutsugamushi in Malaysia.
The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health, 2003The seroprevalence of various Orientia tsutsugamushi (OT) strains among Malaysian patients with suspected scrub typhus infections was determined using an indirect immunoperoxidase (IIP) assay. IgG against a single OT strain were detected in six sera (3 Karp, 1 Gilliam and 2 TC586), whereas IgM antibodies against a single OT strain (Gilliam) were noted ...
