Risk factors for indigenousCampylobacter jejuniandCampylobacter coliinfections in The Netherlands: a case-control study

et al. 2010

SUMMARYA case-control study comprising 1315 Campylobacter jejuni cases, 121 Campylobacter coli cases and 3409 frequency-matched controls was conducted in The Netherlands in [2002][2003]. Risk factors for both C. jejuni and C. coli enteritis were consumption of undercooked meat and barbecued meat, ownership of cats and use of proton pump inhibitors. Consumption of chicken was a predominant risk factor for C. jejuni enteritis, but many additional risk factors were identified. Unique risk factors for C. coli infections were consumption of game and tripe, and swimming. Contact with farm animals and persons with gastroenteritis were predominant risk factors for C. jejuni enteritis in young children (0-4 years). Important risk factors for the elderly (o60 years) were eating in a restaurant, use of proton pump inhibitors and having a chronic intestinal illness. Consumption of chicken in spring, steak tartare in autumn and winter and barbecued meat in rural areas showed strong associations with C. jejuni infections. This study illustrates that important differences in risk factors exist for different Campylobacter spp. and these may differ dependent on age, season or degree of urbanization.

“…Apart from acute gastroenteritis, Campylobacter jejuni infection occasionally leads to serious sequelae such as Guillain-Barre´syndrome and reactive arthritis [6,7]. In addition, several studies have related Campylobacter infections to the development of irritable bowel syndrome and possibly inflammatory bowel disease [8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…Campylobacter produce mild to severe diarrheal disease, and also can cause fever, nausea, and abdominal pain [49]. Although the illness is often selflimiting, it can lead to more severe consequences such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, acute demyelinating polyneuropathy, and reactive arthritis [22,35]. Human campylobacteriosis is closely associated with the consumption of contaminated chicken meat, unpasteurized milk or untreated drinking water [23,31,48].…”

Physiological Characterization of Campylobacter jejuni under Cold Stresses Conditions: Its Potential for Public Threat

et al. 2012

ABSTRACT. Campylobacter jejuni is the major cause of human gastroenteritis worldwide. Under stress conditions, C. jejuni can enter a viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state. We found that the C. jejuni was able to enter a VBNC state by prolonged incubation at 4C. The standard isolation methods using pre-enrichment steps in Bolton broth or Preston broth could not detect the VBNC cells in spiked chicken meat. The transcription levels of virulence-associated genes (flaA, flaB, cadF, ciaB, cdtA, cdtB and cdtC) were expressed in VBNC cells but in low levels. The VBNC cells retained the ability to invade Caco-2 human intestinal epithelial cells in vitro. In most cases, VBNC cells failed to resuscitate in Caco-2 cells, but in some experiments, they formed colonies after co-incubation with host cells. Collectively, C. jejuni enters into a VBNC state at 4C and the VBNC C. jejuni remains virulent which may possibly lead to disease in humans. C. jejuni in VBNC state is a potential concern for food safety.KEY WORDS: Campylobacter jejuni, resuscitation, viable but nonculturable state, virulence.

Campylobacter‐triggered reactive arthritis: a population‐based study

Abstract: ReA is common following Campylobacter infection, with an annual incidence of 4.3 per 100000. At the population level, acute ReA is mild, more frequent in adults, and not associated with HLA-B27. Besides C. jejuni, C. coli can trigger ReA.
