Ornithosis in a chest clinic practice
British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1968Summary A serological diagnosis of ornithosis was made in 24 patients attending chest clinics in south Somerset during 1964 and 1965, 16 being discovered in one year of routine testing of all (156) patients referred after a ‘respiratory influenzal’ illness.

Ornithosis as an Occupational Hazard
Radiology, 1955Ornithosis is a virus infection transmitted primarily from infected poultry to man. It is differentiated in name from psittacosis in that it is transmitted from non-psittacine birds (psittacine referring to the beak characteristic). The fact that ornithosis can be a rapidly developing and incapacitating disease was established in Corsicana, Texas, at a

Ornithosis as a Nosocomial Infection
Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977An outbreak of ornithosis in the department of infectious diseases of a general hospital is described. The outbreak comprised 12 cases aged 18-80 years. The index case had a history of contact with birds. He developed a serious illness and died. 11 persons contracted the disease after contact with the index case; 8 of them were personnel of the clinic ...

A Familial Epidemic of Ornithosis
Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1969AbstractThe course of an epidemic of ornithosis which involved 7 members of 3 generations of one family is described. All patients had respiratory infection and some of them presented signs of hepatitis, meningoencephalitis and myocarditis. Tetracycline therapy was instituted with good effect in 6 cases.

SUMMARYSerological evidence of ornithosis was found in 56 p.c. of 57 feral pigeons (Columba livia) trapped at Ipswich, Queensland.Virus strains isolated in mice from four of eleven pools of pigeon organs were identified as members of the psittacosis‐lymphogranuloma group by complement‐fixation tests and are considered to be strains of ornithosis virus.

An Outbreak of Ornithosis in Norway in 1981
Archives Of Physiology And Biochemistry, 1984During 1981 there were 508 laboratory confirmed cases of ornithosis in Norway. This represents a 7-fold increase compared with previous years. Among 370 patients examined by the National Institute of Public Health, Oslo, 148 stated some contact with birds. There were also small family outbreaks and cases of ornithosis in school friends etc.

Occurrence of Ornithosis in the Wood Pigeon
Nature, 1963THE free-living wild birds of Britain have not been examined extensively for members of the psittacosis lymphogranuloma venereum group. Apart from domestic pigeons living free in the cities, only herring gulls on Skomer Island have been incriminated definitely but there is also some serological evidence for infection in lesser black-backed gulls on the

Ornithosis: Experimental Immunofluorescent Studies
Avian Diseases, 1965The fluorescent antibody technique, since its first application to the study of microorganisms (2), has been successfully applied to the identification of microorganisms in clinical specimens (4,9,12,13). With respect to the causative agent of ornithosis in turkeys, one investigator (5) applied this method to the identification of this agent in direct ...
