Psittacosis



Psittacosis - |

Chlamydophila psittaci - Chlamydophila psittaci is a member of the chlamydiae, a group of obligately intracellular bacteria. It causes psittacosis in humans (rare); avian chlamydiosis in birds (very common); pneumonia, arthritis and conjunctivitis in small or young domesticated mammals.

Karl F. Meyer - ... His career was dedicated to work on infectious disease; he worked on Brucellae and the human and animals diseases it causes, he discovered the virus that caused western equine encephalitis and a number of similar viruses, he discovered the cause of psittacosis after falling ill with it himself.

Pulmonology is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of most diseases of pulmonology, either by inhalation (bronchodilatators and steroids) or in oral form (antibiotics, leukotriene antagonists). It is called chest medicine and respiratory medicine in some countries and areas. Spirometry (the determination of lung diseases, Psittacosis.
