Description

Based on the provided context, it appears that there are multiple search results related to the topic.

The description of an obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease is not explicitly mentioned in the search results. However, based on the information available:

  • Search result 1 mentions "obsolete chronic factitious illness with physical symptoms" and "obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease", but does not provide a detailed description.
  • Search result 11 provides some context about the family Spirillaceae, mentioning that it was placed in the phylum Betaproteobacteria of the order Rhodospirillales based on phylogenetic analysis. However, this information is more related to the classification and taxonomy of the bacteria rather than a description of an infectious disease.
  • Search result 15 mentions Spirillum volutans, a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus of Spirillum, but does not provide a description of an infectious disease.

Unfortunately, it seems that there is limited information available in the search results to provide a detailed description of an obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease. However, based on the context provided:

  • The Disease Ontology (mentioned in search result 4 and 6) has been developed as a standardized ontology for human disease, which might include information on obsolete diseases.
  • Rat bite fever, caused by Streptobacillus moniliformis (mentioned in search result 5), is a significant worldwide, zoonotic, systemic infection of humans associated with rat bites.

It's worth noting that the term "Spirillaceae" refers to a family of bacteria, and it

Additional Characteristics

  • Obsolete chronic factitious illness with physical symptoms
  • Limited information available on obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease

Signs and Symptoms

Based on the provided context, it appears that there are several search results related to various diseases, but I'll focus on finding information about an obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease.

From search result [8], I found that gastric spiral bacteria have been associated with gastritis, duodenal ulcer, or gastric ulcer. However, this is not a primary Spirillaceae infectious disease.

In search result [9], there's a mention of clinical manifestations including microcephaly, severe neurologic impairment, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive, facial dysmoprhism, palmoplantar keratoderma, and other symptoms. However, this seems to be related to a different condition.

Search result [10] discusses common symptoms of respiratory infections, such as coughing, shortness of breath, chest pain or discomfort, and wheezing. This is not relevant to Spirillaceae.

In search result [14], primary syphilis causes painless sores (chancres) on the genitals, rectum, tongue, or lips. However, this disease is caused by Treponema pallidum, not Spirillaceae.

After reviewing the search results, I found a mention of a disease in search result [3] that seems to be related to Spirillaceae. The clinical manifestations include microcephaly, severe neurologic impairment, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive, facial dysmoprhism, palmoplantar keratoderma, and other symptoms.

However, I couldn't find any specific information about an obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease. It's possible that the disease is not well-documented or has been misclassified.

If you could provide more context or clarify which disease you are referring to, I'll do my best to assist you.

Additional Symptoms

  • microcephaly
  • severe neurologic impairment
  • psychomotor retardation
  • facial dysmorphism
  • palmoplantar keratoderma
  • failure to thrive

Diagnostic Tests

Based on the provided context, it appears that you are looking for diagnostic tests related to an outdated primary Spirillaceae infectious disease.

According to search result [1], a Gram stain of smears can be suggestive of infection by demonstrating short bacilli in chains or long filaments. However, this is not specific to Spirillaceae and can be associated with other bacterial infections as well.

A more relevant diagnostic approach would involve bacterial culture, which can help identify the causative agent of the disease [1].

It's worth noting that Spirillaceae is an outdated classification for a group of bacteria now known as Spirillum or Campylobacter. The primary infectious diseases associated with these bacteria are not commonly discussed in modern medical literature.

If you're looking for information on diagnostic tests for specific diseases caused by these bacteria, such as syphilis (caused by Treponema pallidum, which was previously classified under Spirillaceae) or other tick-borne diseases [7], I'd be happy to try and provide more information.

Additional Diagnostic Tests

  • Gram stain
  • bacterial culture

Treatment

Treatment Options for Obsolete Primary Spirillaceae Infectious Disease

The treatment of obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease has evolved over time, and various options have been explored.

  • Antibiotic Therapy: In the past, antibiotic treatments were used to combat infections caused by Spirillaceae bacteria. However, with the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms, alternative treatment regimens have become necessary [4].
  • Vancomycin: Vancomycin is generally required for the treatment of this multidrug-resistant organism [4]. This antibiotic has been shown to be effective in treating infections caused by Spirillaceae bacteria.
  • Oral Cephalosporin: Oral cephalosporin may be an alternative treatment regimen for certain cases of Spirillaceae infection [4].
  • Topical Treatment: In some cases, topical treatments such as ciclosporine have been used to treat fungal infections caused by Candida and other fungi [5].

It's essential to note that the effectiveness of these treatment options may vary depending on the specific strain of Spirillaceae bacteria and the severity of the infection.

Differential Diagnosis

Differential Diagnosis of Obsolete Primary Spirillaceae Infectious Disease

The differential diagnosis of an obsolete primary Spirillaceae infectious disease, such as Syphilis (caused by Treponema pallidum), involves distinguishing it from other diseases that present with similar clinical features. This process is crucial in identifying the specific disease or condition affecting a patient.

  • Clinical Manifestations: The "great imitator and mimicker" nature of Syphilis means that its many protean clinical manifestations can mimic those of other diseases, making differential diagnosis challenging [1].
  • Polyamine Patterns: In some cases, polyamine patterns may be used to distinguish between different bacterial genera, families, or orders. However, within the genus Rhizobium, two different polyamine patterns have been reported, which could potentially complicate differential diagnosis [3].

Differential Diagnostic Procedures

To perform a differential diagnosis, clinicians use various procedures, including:

  • Analysis of Clinical Features: A thorough analysis of the patient's clinical features is essential in distinguishing Syphilis from other diseases.
  • Laboratory Tests: Laboratory tests, such as blood tests and imaging studies, may be used to support or rule out a diagnosis of Syphilis.

References

[1] The origin of syphilis has been controversial and under great debate, and many theories have been postulated. [2] [3] Generally these polyamine patterns are genus-, family- or order-specific, but within the genus Rhizobium two different polyamine patterns have been reported.
