Acute Infections Caused by Tropheryma Whipplei [PDF]

Future Microbiology, 2017
Tropheryma whipplei is the causative bacterium of Whipple's disease. Its first culture has led to an enlargement of the field of the caused infections. Here, we comprehensively review acute T. whipplei infections. In a cohort study featuring 4000 children, T. whipplei was significantly more common in patients with diarrhea (4%) than in those without (1.

Relapse of Tropheryma whipplei endocarditis treated by trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, cured by hydroxychloroquine plus doxycycline

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2015
The best treatment for Tropheryma whipplei infections is controversial. We report a patient who suffered from T. whipplei aortic native valve endocarditis that relapsed despite surgery and four weeks of intravenous ceftriaxone followed by several months ...

Phenotypic diversity of Tropheryma whipplei clinical isolates

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2021
Tropheryma whipplei is a bacterial pathogen responsible for a wide range of infections in humans, covering asymptomatic carriage, acute infections, chronic isolated infections and classic Whipple's disease. Although the bacterium is commonly found in the environment, it very rarely causes disease.

Mucosal immune response to Tropheryma whipplei

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2003
Whipple's disease is a rare infectious disease caused by the ubiquitously occurring Tropheryma whipplei in predisposed persons. Genetic or acquired defects in the mucosal and peripheral immune system become apparent as diminished Th1 immune functions with decreased production of IL-12 and IFN-gamma accompanied by an increased secretion of IL-4.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Metabolome in Central Nervous System Infections: A Study of Diagnostic Accuracy

Annals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 851-863, October 2025.
Objective To assess the diagnostic accuracy of metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for central nervous system (CNS) infections. Methods Patients were derived from three prospective cohort studies in the Netherlands. All studies included adults suspected of a CNS infection who underwent a diagnostic lumbar puncture.

Progressive dementia associated with ataxia or obesity in patients with Tropheryma whipplei encephalitis [PDF]

, 2011
Background Tropheryma whipplei, the agent of Whipple's disease, causes localised infections in the absence of histological digestive involvement. Our objective is to describe T. whipplei encephalitis.
