cross reaction with antigens of the OX strains of proteus vulgaris

Aerosol and inhaled into the lungs
All rickettsial diseases have antropod host such as ticks, lice, fleas and mites except
Epidemic typhus which occurs only in humans because the organism, R prowazekii is transmitted by human body louse

DIC, edema, delirium a

Tick is the major reservor and it predominant on the east coast.
Rocky Mountain spotted fever, r. rickettsii
THis disease has a combination of hepatitis and pneumonia and does not present as rash. It's important reservoir is a cattle or sheep and goats. and infects humans by aerosol inhalation
Q fever, coxiella burnetti and is usullay resolved even without antibiotics
Typus group of rickettsia
R. prowazekii,
R. typhi
r. tsutsugamushi
R. typhi is found in southern regions of California and Texas and symptoms include
Sudden onset of chills, fever, headache, ifluenza 1-3 weeks after louse bite, 5-9 day the maculopapular rash begins on the trunk and spreads out. Rash spares face, palms and soles.
Epidemic typhis is transmided pereson t oberson by human body louse and associated with
wars, proverty in developing countries
AKA Brill-Zinsser disease.
Diagnosis of rickettsial is serological test, indirect immunofluorescence and ELISA test, where treatment is
tetracycline or chloramphenicol.

RBC-cold agglutinis
, brain,
lung
liver cells
Mycoplasma pneumonia is the mostly seen in
youn adults, collaege and military perosnnel
cold agglutinins are
IgM autoantibodies against type O red blood cess atha agglutinate at 4 degress but not at 37 degress.
Mycoplasma hominis is implicated in
pelvic inflammatory disease
4 characterisctics of enterobacteriaceae
all facultative anaerobes
all ferment glucose
alloxidase-negative
all reduce nitrates to nitrites to get energy
the polysaccharide in the cell wall is alson known as the
o antigen and found in E. coli and salmonella
this antigen is on the flagella only and found in escherichia , salmonella and klesiella and shigella
