Murine Typhus and Leptospirosis as Causes of Acute Undifferentiated Fever, Indonesia [PDF]
To investigate rickettsioses and leptospirosis among urban residents of Semarang, Indonesia, we tested the blood of 137 patients with fever. Evidence of Rickettsia typhi, the agent of murine typhus, was found in 9 patients.

Advances in Rickettsia Pathogenicity
One century after the first description of rickettsiae as human pathogens, the rickettsiosis remained poorly understood diseases. These microorganisms are indeed characterized by a strictly intracellular location which has, for long, prohibited their detailed study.

Beyond the Kidney and Lung: Cutaneous and Mucosal Clues to Human Hantavirus Disease
Rodent exposure and aerosolized excreta can lead to hantavirus infection with systemic endothelial injury and capillary leak, resulting in thrombocytopenia and syndromes such as HPS/HCPS and HFRS/NE. Early dermatologic and mucosal findings, including flushing, conjunctival injection, petechiae/purpura, and mucosal bleeding, may provide important clues ...

Dissemination of spotted fever rickettsia agents in Europe by migrating birds. [PDF]
Migratory birds are known to play a role as long-distance vectors for many microorganisms. To investigate whether this is true of rickettsial agents as well, we characterized tick infestation and gathered ticks from 13,260 migratory passerine birds in ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Piscirickettsiosis in Farmed Turbot, Scophthalmus maximus
ABSTRACT Piscirickettsia salmonis is a well‐established intracellular pathogen of farmed Atlantic salmon around the world. The bacterium has also been detected from a number of other hosts including lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus), seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).

In this review I shall try to provide a brief, up‐to‐date, account of the neuropathology of those viral and rickettsial diseases that are particularly prevalent in tropical regions. These diseases are not, however, exclusive to the tropics. Some, such as AIDS, are common in temperate regions as well, though others are closer to being exclusively ...
