Weil's disease (/ ˈ v aɪ l z / VILES), [12] the acute, severe form of leptospirosis, causes the infected individual to become jaundiced (skin and eyes become yellow), develop kidney failure, and bleed. [6] Bleeding from the lungs associated with leptospirosis is known as severe pulmonary haemorrhage syndrome. [5]
A unicellular organism, it is oval shaped and measures 0.5 to 0.8 μm wide and 1.2 to 3.0 μm long. Due to similarity, it was previously classified in the genus Rickettsia among other bacteria, but later assigned a separate genus, Orientia , [ 20 ] which it shares (as of 2010) only with Candidatus Orientia chuto .

An etiological agent of disease may require an independent co-factor, and be subject to a promoter (increases expression) to cause disease. An example of all the above, which was recognized late, is that peptic ulcer disease may be induced by stress, requires the presence of acid secretion in the stomach, and has primary etiology in ...
The causative agent of DLHA is a cold-active immunoglobulin commonly denoted as the D–L autoantibody which demonstrates bi-phasic hemolysin capability of causing serious hemolysis even when the titer detection is low, which is because of its capacity to detach itself from the lysed RBCs and consequently bind intact erythrocytes according to ...
[1] [4] R. typhi is a flea-borne disease that is best known to be the causative agent for the disease murine typhus, which is an endemic typhus in humans that is distributed worldwide. [3] As with all rickettsial organisms, R. typhi is a zoonotic agent that causes the disease murine typhus , displaying non-specific mild symptoms of fevers ...
Yersinia is a genus of bacteria in the family Yersiniaceae. [1] Yersinia species are Gram-negative, coccobacilli bacteria, a few micrometers long and fractions of a micrometer in diameter, and are facultative anaerobes. [2] Some members of Yersinia are pathogenic in humans; in particular, Y. pestis is the causative agent of the plague.
