Motor neuron disease (MND) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder that leads to progressive loss of motor neurons, causing muscle weakness and wasting [ 1 ]. As respiratory muscles weaken, patients with MND experience breathing difficulties and are …

Psittacosis (or ornithosis) is an infection that can be transmitted to humans from the inhalation of respiratory secretions, feces and plumage aerosol of infected birds, hens, ducks and rarely pigs and horses [ 1 ].

Psittacosis, which is also known as parrot fever or ornithosis, is a zoonotic bacterial infectious disease caused by the obligate intracellular gram negative organism Chlamydia psittaci ( C. psittaci ). C. psittaci can not only infect humans …

Chlamydia psittaci is a gram-negative, obligate intracellular bacterium. Infection by C. psittaci is transmitted to human beings mainly through contact or inhalation of aerosol, feces, or feather dust from nasal secretions of infected birds [ 1 – 3 …]. The primary host of

Ocular adnexa MALT-lymphomas represent approximatively 5-15% of all extranodal lymphomas. Almost 75% of OAMLs are localized in orbital fat, while 25% of cases involves conjunctive. MALT-lymphomas often recognize specific environmental factors …

Human psittacosis, also known as parrot fever or ornithosis, is a zoonotic infectious disease whose agent is the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci ( C. psittaci ). Although psittacosis is not a common disease, it has been reported …

Chlamydia psittaci infection in humans, known as parrot fever, ornithosis, or psittacosis, usually manifests as pneumonia, which ranges in severity from asymptomatic to fatal [ 1 , 2 ]. Chlamydia psittaci is responsible for less than 5% of …

Chlamydia psittaci is an obligatory intra-cellular Gram-negative bacterium that typically infects birds, but could occasionally cause psittacosis in humans when contaminated aerosols from infected birds are inhaled. Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia in …

Die Inhalation von weiter verarbeitetem Kokain, wie Crack oder Freebase, kann zu alveolären Hämorrhagien führen. Das klinische Bild wird als „crack lung syndrome“ bezeichnet. Schwere Verläufe sind durch Zeichen einer progredienten hypoxämischen …

The significance of chlamydiosis as a cause of mortality in wild passerines (Order Passeriformes), and the role of these birds as a potential source of zoonotic Chlamydia psittaci infection, is unknown. We reviewed wild bird mortality incidents …

Chlamydiae include important respiratory pathogens. In humans, infections with Chlamydia ( C .) psittaci are typical examples of pulmonary zoonotic diseases, historically known as psittacosis (parrot fever) or ornithosis (transmitted from poultry).
