  • Bartonella bacilliformis: A Systematic Review of the Literature to Guide the Research Agenda for Elimination 
    Sanchez Clemente, N.; Ugarte Gil, Cesar Augusto; Solórzano, N.; Maguiña Vargas, Ciro; Pachas, P.; Blazes, D.; Bailey, R.; Mabey, D.; Moore, David Alexander James (Public Library of Science, 2012)
    Background: Carrion's disease affects small Andean communities in Peru, Colombia and Ecuador and is characterized by two distinct disease manifestations: an abrupt acute bacteraemic illness (Oroya fever) and an indolent ...
  • Carrion's disease: More than a neglected disease 
    Garcia-Quintanilla, Meritxell; Dichter, Alexander A.; Guerra, Humberto; Kempf, Volkhard A. J. (BioMed Central, 2019)
    Infections with Bartonella bacilliformis result in Carrion's disease in humans. In the first phase of infection, the pathogen causes a hemolytic fever ("Oroya fever") with case-fatality rates as high as ~90% in untreated ...
  • Cytokines and t-lymphocyte count in patients in the acute and chronic phases of bartonella bacilliformis infection in an endemic area in Peru: A pilot study 
    Huarcaya, E.; Best, I.; Rodriguez-Tafur, J.; Maguiña Vargas, Ciro; Solórzano, N.; Menacho, J.; Lopez de Guimaraes, D.; Chauca, J.; Ventosilla, P. (Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2011)
    Human Bartonellosis has an acute phase characterized by fever and hemolytic anemia, and a chronic phase with bacillary angiomatosis-like lesions. This cross-sectional pilot study evaluated the immunology patterns using ...
  • Description of Bartonella ancashensis sp. nov., isolated from the blood of two patients with verruga peruana 
    Mullins, K.E.; Hang, J.; Jiang, J.; Leguia, M.; Kasper, M.R.; Ventosilla, P.; Maguiña Vargas, Ciro; Jarman, R.G.; Blazes, D.; Richards, A.L. (Microbiology Society, 2015)
    Three novel isolates of the genus Bartonella were recovered from the blood of two patients enrolled in a clinical trial for the treatment of chronic stage Bartonella bacilliformis infection (verruga peruana) in Caraz, ...
  • Dried blood spots for qPCR diagnosis of acute Bartonella bacilliformis infection 
    Smit, Pieter W.; Peeling, Rosanna W.; Garcia Funegra, Patricia Jannet; Torres, Lorena L.; Pérez-Lu, José E.; Moore, David Alexander James; Mabey, David (American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013)
    Bartonella bacilliformis is the etiological agent of a life-threatening illness. Thin blood smear is the most common diagnostic Method: for acute infection in endemic areas of Peru but remains of limited value because of ...
  • Infection of Domestic Dogs in Peru by Zoonotic Bartonella Species: A Cross-Sectional Prevalence Study of 219 Asymptomatic Dogs 
    Diniz, Pedro Paulo V.P.; Morton, Bridget A.; Tngrian, Maryam; Kachani, Malika; Barrón, Eduardo A.; Gavidia, Cesar M.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Angulo, Noelia P.; Brenner, Elliott C.; Lerner, Richard; Chomel, Bruno B. (Public Library of Science, 2013)
    Bartonella species are emerging infectious organisms transmitted by arthropods capable of causing long-lasting infection in mammalian hosts. Among over 30 species described from four continents to date, 15 are known to ...
  • Molecular typing of "Candidatus bartonella ancashi," A new human pathogen causing Verruga Peruana 
    Mullins, Kristin E.; Hang, Jun; Jiang, Ju; Leguia, Mariana; Kasper, Matthew R.; Maguiña Vargas, Ciro; Jarman, Richard G.; Blazes, David L.; Richards, Allen L. (American Society for Microbiology, 2013)
    A recently described clinical isolate, “Candidatus Bartonella ancashi,” was obtained from a blood sample of a patient presenting with verruga peruana in the Ancash region of Peru. This sample and a second isolate obtained ...
  • Multi-locus sequence analysis reveals profound genetic diversity among isolates of the human pathogen bartonella bacilliformis 
    Chaloner, G.L.; Ventosilla, P.; Birtles, R.J. (Public Library of Science, 2011)
    Bartonella bacilliformis is the aetiological agent of human bartonellosis, a potentially life threatening infection of significant public health concern in the Andean region of South America. Human bartonellosis has long ...
  • Novel bartonella agent as cause of verruga peruana 
    Blazes, David L.; Mullins, Kristin; Smoak, BonnieL.; Jiang, Ju; Canal, Enrique; Solorzano, Nelson; Hall, Eric; Meza, Rina; Maguiña Vargas, Ciro; Myers, Todd; Richards, Allen L.; Laughlin, Larry (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2013)
    While studying chronic verruga peruana infections in Peru from 2003, we isolated a novel Bartonella agent, which we propose be named Candidatus Bartonella ancashi. This case reveals the inherent weakness of relying solely ...
