• Shigella Dysentery What is dysentery?   Dysentery is an infection usually spread from person to person caused by bacteria called "shigella". ...   Why worry about it?   DYSENTERY IS VERY INFECTIOUS!   Young children, the elderly, or those with pre-existing illness who catch dysentery can be really ill and are particularly susceptible to the disease. ...   How do we stop dysentery from spreading?   Dysentery is usually spread from person-to-person. As the germs are present in the bowel motions, and only a few germs are needed to spread dysentery it is most important to be scrupulously hygienic after using the toilet and make sure that you wash your hands thoroughly:   .
• If caring for someone with dysentery, hands should be washed after contact with that person and before contact with the next: .
•   What might I be asked to do?   Because dysentery can spread so easily and the germ can still be carried by someone without symptoms, or someone who is no longer ill, you may be asked to provide a "stool" specimen (specimen of the bowel motion) to test for the bacteria. ... Any foodhandler returning to work after suffering from dysentery should be scrupulous in their hand washing, especially after visiting the toilet.   What should I do if I think someone has dysentery?   If you have any of the symptoms described earlier, especially bloody diarrhoea you should stay off work or school, rest and drink plenty. If you think your children may have dysentery, keep them away from nursery or school until they have had no further symptoms for at least 48 hours. ...

• How dysentery manages infection.
• Scientists have found that the bacterium that causes dysentery uses a 'sword and shield' approach to cause infection. ...
• According to research published in the latest issue of Science, the team from Imperial College London and Institut Pasteur, Paris, found that Shigella, the bacteria which causes dysentery, is able to invade cells, while stopping any response from the immune system. ...
• They found that Shigella was able to infect cells by using a secretion system to inject proteins into human cells, while lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the surface of the bacteria acts as a shield to protect the dysentery bacterium from being destroyed by the body's immune system. ...
• Dr Christoph Tang, from Imperial College London, and one of the researchers, comments: "This is the first description of bacteria able to use this 'sword and shield' approach, showing how dysentery is able to infect the body so effectively. ...
• The researchers found that Shigella, the bacteria causing dysentery uses a Type III secretion system to inject proteins into human cells. This causes the cells to become inflamed, resulting in symptoms of dysentery, such as bloody diarrhoea. ...
• Dr Tang adds: "This discovery greatly expands our understanding of how bacteria are sometimes able to evolve although it is unlikely to result in new treatments or vaccines for dysentery. In this case, the dysentery bacterium has evolved into a highly effective and dangerous infection. ...

• Dysentery an enteric illness caused by pathogenic bacteria or parasitic protozoa. Bacterial dysentery is also called bacillary dysentery because the pathogen is a bacillus or rod-shaped bacterium. Since the dysentery causing bacteria belong to the genus Shigella, the dysentery is also called shigellosis. Parasitic dysentery is caused by the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica and is also known as amoebiasis.
• Bacillary dysentery is mostly an acute infection triggered by ingestion of the Shigella bacillus through contaminated food or water. ... Stool mixed with shed mucus and blood is characteristic of bacillary dysentery and is passed frequently with characteristic painful defecation. Amoebic dysentery, on the other hand, is not usually associated with bloody stool and usually is a less severe disease. Frequent stool with mucous and abdominal pain is the major clinical manifestation of amoebic dysentery. In some patients, amoebic dysentery tends to be chronic and lasts for months which probably is the result of repeated re-infection due to exposure to unhygienic conditions.
• Both bacillary dysentery and amoebic dysentery are highly endemic in Bangladesh and is the cause of extensive morbidity and mortality, particularly in children with attacks of bacillary dysentery. Explosive epidemics of bacillary dysentery occur every year often spreading rapidly; however, amoebic dysentery spreads less rapidly. Approximate yearly cases of bacillary dysentery in Bangladesh in a typical year is estimated to be between 2,00,000 and 3,00,000 while the number for amoebic dysentery is estimated to be between 25,000 and 50,000.
• Amoebiasis is commonly known as amoebic dysentery. ... Unlike bacillary dysentery which is caused by bacteria and of which the discharge of fresh blood with stool is a common manifestation, in amoebiasis the stool usually does not contain any blood except in very severe cases. ...
• Thus, the large malnourished population of the country is particularly vulnerable to amoebic dysentery. ...

• Cultural and social context of dysentery: implications for the introduction of a new vaccine.
• Dysentery, a severe form of diarrhoeal disease, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Paradoxically, virtually no studies have been conducted to examine beliefs and behaviours associated with dysentery. The explanatory model of dysentery was explored in a community in Dhaka, Bangladesh, to understand the acceptability of a vaccine against dysentery. A local term for bloody dysentery is widely known, and residents describe a progression of symptoms, which closely mirrors the biomedical model of the disease. Due to the symbolic significance of blood loss and the fact that there is much uncertainty regarding treatment, bloody dysentery is perceived to be extremely serious. Causal interpretations most commonly relate to humoral theories, and remedies involve the consumption of 'cooling' foods that will reduce the heat associated with dysentery. ...
