过去二十年来,致病性立克次体病原体的鉴定范围不断扩大。在北美,大多数人类病例是由蜱传立克次体引起的,但通过虱子、跳蚤、螨虫和其他节肢动物传播的立克次体也是引起临床疾病的原因。症状通常是非特异性的或类似于其他传染病;因此,诊断和治疗可能会被延误。虽然大多数立克次体病的感染相对较轻,但诊断和治疗的延迟可能会导致发病率和死亡率增加。本综述将讨论北美疑似和已确诊的媒介传播立克次体与人类疾病相关的生态学、流行病学和公共卫生重要性。
The identification of pathogenic rickettsial agents has expanded over the last two decades. In North America, the majority of human cases are caused by tick-borne rickettsioses but rickettsiae transmitted by lice, fleas, mites and other arthropods are also responsible for clinical disease. Symptoms are generally nonspecific or mimic other infectious diseases; therefore, diagnosis and treatment may be delayed. While infection with most rickettsioses is relatively mild, delayed diagnosis and treatment may lead to increased morbidity and mortality. This review will discuss the ecology, epidemiology and public health importance of suspected and confirmed vector-transmitted Rickettsia species of North America associated with human diseases.
