The article focuses on the study "Bartonella Quintana in Cynomolgus Monkey (Macaca Fascicularis)," by Laurie G. O'Rourke, Christian Pitulle et al. The reemergence of Bartonella quintana infections in humans has increased awareness of the organism's ability to induce persistent bacteremia in people with few symptoms. The findings of the study support the relationship of the organism and the cynomolgus monkey isolate. The research indicates that nonhuman primates may serve as a reservoir for human Bartonella quintana infection. |
