巴尔通体属的两个成员,五日巴尔通体(前Rochalimaea quintana)和汉赛巴尔通体(前Rochalimaea henselae),最近被认为是感染人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)的患者的严重或致命疾病的病原体。B感染的发展。HIV感染者体内的汉赛氏菌与与猫的创伤性接触(抓伤或咬伤)有关,家猫已被确定为该生物体的主要宿主。关于汉赛B传播给人类的具体信息尚未获得,但最大限度地减少接触猫相关微生物的常识性预防措施是适当的。初步报告表明,在弗朗西斯科的艾滋病毒感染者中,B,quintana感染比B,henselae感染更常见,B,quintana的感染源及其传播机制仍不清楚。
Two members of the genus Bartonella, Bartonella quintana (formerly Rochalimaea quintana) and Bartonella henselae (formerly Rochalimaea henselae), have recently been recognized as agents of severe or fatal disease in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The development of infection with B. henselae in HIV-infected individuals has been associated with traumatic contact with cats (scratches or bites), and domestic cats have been identified as a major reservoir for this organism. Specific information regarding the transmission of B, henselae to humans is not yet available, but common-sense precautions that minimize exposure to cat-associated organisms are appropriate. Preliminary accounts suggest that B, quintana infections are more common than B, henselae infections among HIV-infected individuals in San Francisco, The source of infection with B, quintana and the mechanism of its transmission remain unknown.
