Ehrlichia chaffeensis and Rochalimaea antibodies in Kawasaki disease.

M H Rathore1, L L Barton, J E Dawson, R L Regnery, E M Ayoub.   

Abstract

Sera from 38 patients with Kawasaki disease were tested for immunofluorescent antibodies to Ehrlichia chaffeensis, Rochalimaea henselae, and R. quintana Oklahoma. Only 2.5% of the patients tested positive for E. chaffeensis, and 5% were positive for R. henselae and R. quintana Oklahoma. Our data suggest that Ehrlichia and Rochalimaea spp. do not play a unique role in the etiology of Kawasaki disease.
