Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by spirochetes of the genus Leptospira. 1,2 Leptospirosis affects human beings and many other species of vertebrates, it can present in a wild spectrum of clinical manifestations in human being. 3 Many wild and domestic animals are reservoirs for leptospira organisms and they shed these organisms in their urine thereby contaminating fresh water, mud an...
Pathogenesis of disease severity in leptospirosis is not clearly understood whether it is due to direct damage by pathogen or by adverse immune responses. Knowledge on biomarkers of oxidative stress which could be used in identifying patients with severe illness has shown to be of great value in disease management. Thus, the main aim of this study was to assess the damage to serum proteins and ...
Leptospirosis is one of the most widespread and globally important zoonotic diseases. In India, it is emerged as an important cause of febrile illness with seasonal and geographical variation and affects humans on all continents, in both urban and rural area and in tropical and temperate climates. Most outbreaks of leptospirosis are reported in coastal regions. Leptospirosis has been recognized...
A retrospective study was undertaken to describe seasonal patterns of leptospirosis diagnosed at veterinary teaching hospitals in the United States and Canada, and to determine if occurrence of cases (diagnoses) was associated with rainfall. The veterinary medicine database (VMDB) was searched for records of dogs in which a diagnosis of leptospirosis was made, and average monthly rainfall recor...
Leptospirosis is a common zoonosis that is endemic in the tropical Top End of the Northern Territory. Disease ranges from mild to very severe. We report a patient with anicteric leptospirosis who became critically ill, challenging the view that anicteric leptospirosis is less severe than the icteric form. Despite a typical but non-specific presentation and recreational high-risk activities, dia...
BACKGROUND Leptospirosis is an endemo-epidemic zoonotic disease associated with potentially fatal renal, cardiovascular or pulmonary failure. Recommended treatment includes antibiotics, which may induce a Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction (JHR). Since little information on the importance of this adverse event is available, we performed this review to quantify frequency and impact of JHR in leptospiro...
Data on the association between peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD) and leptospirosis are limited. We conducted a retrospective cohort study for determining whether leptospirosis is one of the possible risk factors for PAOD. Patients diagnosed with leptospirosis by using 2000 to 2010 data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Patients with leptospirosis without a h...
BACKGROUND Leptospirosis is an emerging zoonosis that is often under-recognized in children and commonly confused with dengue in tropical settings. An enhanced ability to distinguish leptospirosis from dengue in children would guide clinicians and public health personnel in the appropriate use of limited healthcare resources. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We conducted a prospective, hospital...
Severe leptospirosis with pulmonary hemorrhage is emerging globally. Measures to control leptospirosis through sanitation depend on accurate case finding and reporting. Rapid death certificate reporting, plus necropsy of persons who died of leptospirosis, facilitates public health intervention and could provide an important tool in assessing the global burden of leptospirosis.
Leptospirosis is a serious infection disease caused by pathogenic strains of the Leptospira spirochetes, which affects not only humans but also animals. It has long been expected to find an effective vaccine to prevent leptospirosis through immunization of high risk humans or animals. Although some leptospirosis vaccines have been obtained, the vaccination is relatively unsuccessful in clinical...
