campylobacter ileocolitis: an inflammatory bowel disease.		1979	519563
campylobacter colitis.	a patient is described in whom a campylobacter enteritis closely resembled ulcerative colitis on clinical, sigmoidoscopic, and histological grounds. selective stool culture techniques may be necessary to differentiate campylobacter colitis from ulcerative colitis proper.	1979	521500
acute diarrhoea: campylobacter colitis and the role of rectal biopsy.	campylobacter spp. were the organisms isolated most frequently from 29 consecutive patients admitted with acute diarrhoea to an infectious disease unit. rectal biopsies taken from 21 of the patients were abnormal in all but four, and in the patients with campylobacter infection there was a characteristic proctocolitis in each case. the histopathology was similar to that described for salmonella and shigella infections but clearly different from typical ulcerative colitis and crohn's disease. the ...	1979	521501
designation of aerotolerant campylobacter-like organisms from porcine and bovine abortions to the genus campylobacter.	unusual helically-curved bacteria isolated from porcine and bovine abortions measured 1.8 microns long and 0.4 microns wide, failed to produce poly beta-hydroxybutyric acid granules and had dna base compositions within the span 29--34 moles per cent. from this evidence, it was concluded that these organisms are members of the genus campylobacter.	1979	523802

campylobacter enteritis-an in-patient study.	during the first eight months of 1978, 26 patients were admitted to the communicable diseases unit at king's cross hospital, dundee with a diagnosis of campylobacter enteritis. the variety of clinical features encountered is described. although diarrhoea occurred in all cases, it was preceded or accompanied by abdominal pain in the majority of cases and by fever in over half of the patients. the article emphasises the need to consider campylobacter infection in patients presenting with bloody di ...	1979	555817
campylobacter fetus infection in human subjects: association with raw milk.	within a three week period, four cases of campylobacter fetus infection were identified in a hospital in los angeles county. three of the four patients had drunk large quantities of an identical brand of commercially available certified raw milk. campylobacter fetus subspecies jejuni was isolated from the blood of these three patients. the fourth patient, who did not drink raw milk, had campylobacter fetus subspecies intestinalis isolated from his blood. a telephone survey comparing cases and co ...	1979	571676
campylobacter enteritis associated with unpasteurized milk.	campylobacter fetus ss. jejuni has recently been recognized as a human enteric pathogen. laboratory isolation has been hindered by its fastidious nature. methods for recovery of this organism from stool culture and a specific serologic test are described. an outbreak is reported in which three members of the same family became simultaneously ill with fever, severe abdominal cramps and diarrhea. c. fetus ss. jejuni was recovered from stool specimens from all three. a fourfold increase in serum im ...	1979	573969

campylobacter fetus sepsis with mycotic aortic aneurysm.	campylobacter fetus is a fastidious, curved, gram-negative bacillus that has been increasingly associated with human disease. to our knowledge, we are reporting the first documented case of c fetus sepsis associated with an aortic mycotic aneurysm. typical of previously reported cases of infections caused by this organism, this case involved a debilitated patient who was seen initially with a subacute febrile illness associated with bacteremia, but who died suddenly when the unsuspected aneurysm ...	1979	581840
haemorrhagic gastroenteritis in a dog.		1979	311968
pathology of proliferative haemorrhagic enteropathy in pigs.	examination of the small intestine of pigs with proliferative haemorrhagic enteropathy showed changes consistent with defects in vascular permeability. early in the disease there were many eosinophils and distension of lacteals and intercellular spaces with proteinaceous material. later the predominant features were red blood cells and exudate in tissue spaces. this was most severe and extensive at the tips of villi which were covered by a cast of cells and fibrinous exudate. adenomatous intesti ...	1979	313620
proliferative haemorrhagic enteropathy.	this study indicates that viable campylobacter sputorum subsp mucosalis are not present or are present in small numbers in the mucosa of pigs dying of proliferative haemorrhagic enteropathy. the changes present in the mucosa are similar to those seen in pigs recovering from adenomatosis and the evidence obtained indicates that the intracellular organisms observed in this condition are indeed mucosalis. the presence of large amounts of iga in the altered tissue of both proliferative haemorrhagic ...	1979	315603

respiratory systems and cytochromes in campylobacter fetus subsp. intestinalis.	cell suspensions of campylobacter fetus subsp. intestinalis grown microaerophilically in complex media consumed oxygen in the presence of formate, succinate, and dl-lactate, and membranes had the corresponding dehydrogenase activities. the cells and membranes also had ascorbate-n,n,n',n'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine oxidase activity which was cyanide sensitive. the fumarate reductase activity in the membranes was inhibited by p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonate, and this enzyme was probably respons ...	1980	6254951
