Tshitupa 1: Mushindu udi Leptospira ubuela mu mubidi (And Why You Do Not Need an Open Cut to Get Infected)¶

1. Corkscrew Spirochete ne tshisokomenu tshia mpuku ya mu tshimenga ne ya mu misoko¶

Leptospira interrogans (with over 250 pathogenic serovars, notably *Icterohaemorrhagiae* carried by brown rats, *Canicola* in dogs, *Pomona* in pigs and cattle, and *Hardjo* in cattle) i tshintu tshidi tshinyunguluka bikole, tshidi ne nsongo ya spirochete tshidi tshienda tshinyunguluka mionji yatshi ya axial bu tshintu tshidi tshienza mudimu ne mashinyi. - Mushindu kayi udi mbeba ne nyama idi ne mishiku mikuna mayi a mvula: Mpuku ya mvinyo (Rattus norvegicus) idi ne disama dia kashidi, mpuku ya ku nzubu, mbeba, bimuna, ne mbwa idi kayiyi miela tuishi badi balama Leptospira kashidi munda mua tubule yabu idi pabuipi ne mifuba kayiyi imueneka bu idi isama, idi ipatula mililitre ya mililitre ya muoyo mashi. - Mushindu wa kuikala ne muoyo mu mayi ne mu bitotshi: Padi Leptospira ufua lukasa pa njila muume, mutokesha kudi munya anyi mu mayi a mbuu adi ne mukele wa bungi, mu mayi mimpe adi ne luya lukole (pH 6.8 to 7.6, luya 20 to 32 degrees Celsius / 68 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit), mayi a mvula, buloba buume, ne bitotshi bia panyima pa tshipepele tshikole, Leptospira udi ushala ne muoyo ne udi mua kusama bantu bua weeks to several months.

|  1. CONJUNCTIVAL SUFFUSION (RED EYES WITHOUT PUS - DAYS 3 TO 4):        |
|     - Pull down the lower eyelid and look at the bulbar and palpebral   |
|       conjunctiva (the covering over the white of the eye).             |
|     - In Leptospirosis, spirochetal vasculitis dilates the pericorneal  |
|       and conjunctival blood vessels, turning the eyes BRIGHT RED OR    |
|       PINK-ORANGE (often with subconjunctival hemorrhages) - character-   |
|       istically WITHOUT purulent yellow discharge, sticky eyelids, or   |
|       itching (unlike viral or bacterial pinkeye).                      |
|                                                                         |
|  2. EXCRUCIATING CALF & LUMBAR TENDERNESS (RHABDOMYOLYTIC MYOSITIS):    |
|     - Leptospira directly invades skeletal muscle fibers, causing       |
|       focal myofibrillar necrosis and elevated Creatine Kinase (CPK).   |
|     - Gently squeezing the patient's CALF MUSCLES (gastrocnemius),      |
|       thighs, or lower back muscles elicits disproportionate pain       |
|       (patients often say walking feels like their calves were beaten   |
|       with a baseball bat), and abdominal wall myalgia can mimic an     |
|       acute surgical abdomen.                                           |

Nkonko itubu bela misangu ya bungi¶

"Disama dia mêsu" didi dimueneka mushindu kayi, ne mmunyi mudidi dishilangane ne disama dia mêsu dia pa tshibidilu?¶

**Disama dia mu tshiadi** ntshimue tshia ku bintu bia kueyemena bidi bileja disama dia leptospirose, didi dimueneka pabuipi ne dituku dia 3 anyi 4 dia disama dia fièvre. Paudi utangila mêsu a mubedi, mishipa mikese ya mashi idi mipita mu tshitupa tshia mêsu idi mivula ne mitoke anyi mitoke ya orange (`often most intense around the edges of the cornea`), **kadi bishilangane na pinkeye wa virus anyi wa bactérie (`conjunctivitis`), kudi ZERO pus wa jaune/vert udi ulamakaja, ZERO udi unyanguka ku mêsu mu dinda, ne kakuena disama dia nsukadi to**. Padi disama dia jaunisse dikola mu tshitupa 2 (`Weil's disease`), disangisha dia mishipa ya mashi ya mu tshiadi tshikunze pa mutu pa sclera wa jaune didi dipesha mêsu **butoke bua orange**.

Bua tshinyi bidi ne njiwu ya bungi bua kunua Ibuprofen (Advil), Naproxen (Aleve), anyi Aspirin bua kapepe ne kanyinganyinga ka muana wa ngombe panyima pa dibuela mu mâyi a mvula?¶

Bimanyinu bibidi bidi mua kunyanga muoyo bia disama dia leptospirose (`as well as dengue fever, which often circulates at the same time after tropical storms`) badi ** disama dia tshiadi (`interstitial nephritis and tubular damage`)** ne **dipuekesha dia mashi (`thrombocytopenia`)**. Kunua manga adi kaayi a steroïde adi ajikija misanshi (`NSAIDs like ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, or aspirin`) udi ukandika mishipa ya mashi idi idisha mifuba - idi mua kufikisha mifuba idi ne disama ku **dipanga dia mifuba dikole** - eku musangu umue ukanga mudimu wa dibuela dia mashi mu mashi, bidi mua kufikisha ku **dipatuka dia mashi mu mifuba (`hemoptysis`) anyi dipatuka dia mashi mu tshifu**. Keba misangu yonso dikonkonona dia munganga bua kupeta manga a antibiotique (`Doxycycline or Azithromycin`) kumpala kua kunua manga adi ajikija kanyinganyinga.

Ndi mua kupeta disama dia Leptospirose kudi mbwa wanyi nansha mudiku kakuyi mvula wa bungi anyi?¶

**Eyowa.** Mbwa ya mu nzubu idi mua kupeta *Leptospira* (`serovars Canicola, Grippotyphosa, Pomona, or Icterohaemorrhagiae`) pa kunua mu bisuku bia panyima pa nzubu, mu maziba, anyi mu bisonsa biume muvua mbua ya muitu, mbua ya mfiondo, mbua ya opossum anyi mbua ya skunks miele. Nansha mudi mbwa umueneka anu usama kakese (`or after it recovers`), udi mua kuela *Leptospira* bactérie mu mashi ende munkatshi mua mbingu ya bungi. Wewe musukule mashi a mbwa mu nzubu ne bianza bitupu anyi muikale ne mputa ku bianza, udi mua kupeta disama. Misangu yonso, ikala ne bianza bia tshiamu tshia caoutchouc/nitrile paudi usukula mashi a nyama, wowa bianza bimpe ne nsabanga ne mâyi, ne lomba munganga webe wa nyama bua kukupesha **4-serovar Canine Leptospirosis Vaccine** wa tshidimu tshionso.

Bua tshinyi luya lua mubedi luakajika matuku abidi ne pashishe kupingana ne mbila ne mêsu a jaune ne mashi mafiike?¶

Etshi ke tshilele tshia kale tshia **biphasic ("two-phase") tshia leptospirose**. Mu **Tshitupa 1 (`Days 1 to 7`)**, tuishi etu tudi tuendakana mu mashi, tuenza bua muntu ikale ne kapia kakole, mashika, mêsu matuku, ne kanyinganyinga ka mu tshiadi. Pabuipi ne dituku dia 5 too ne dia 7, tshiluilu tshia mubidi tshidi tshipatula bintu bidi bikuba mubidi bidi biumusha bactérie mu mashi, nunku **tshipupu tshidi tshipueka mu tshitupa tshîpi mu matuku 1 too ne 3**. Pashishe **Tshitupa 2 (`the Immune Phase`)** udi utuadija: mu bilumbu bikole (`Weil's Disease`), disama dikole dia mubidi didi dikuata tshifu, mifuba, ne mikolo, difikisha ku **jaunisse wa tshimpitshimpi (`yellow/orange eyes`), disama dia mfyo (`scant or dark tea urine`), meningitis, anyi dikokola dia mashi**. Kuedi meji ne: tshipupu tshia panyima pa mvula tshidi tshijika too ne padi munganga mumane kutshiondopa ne manga onso a lufu.

Mâyi a mbuu adi ne Leptospira anyi?¶

*Leptospira* spirochetes i **bifukibua bia mu mayi mimpe ne mu buloba butoke**: kabiena mua kuikala ne muoyo mutantshi mule mu mayi a mbuu adi ne bukole bua bungi ne adi ne mukele wa bungi to (`35 parts per thousand`). **Kadi**, kunyima kua mvula mikole ya ku muelelu wa mâyi anyi bipepele bikole, mâyi mimpe a mu musulu ne misulu ya mvula ya mvula adi apuekesha mâyi a mbua adi ne bukoya mu **miaba ya ku muelelu wa mâyi, mu mishiku ya musulu, mu misulu, ku muelelu wa mâyi, ne mu misesu idi ne mâyi a bungi**, mudi **mayi mimpe *Leptospira** ne **marine [*Vibrio vulnificus*](hemorrhagic-bullae-vibrio-vulnificus-warm-seawater-wound-infection-and-raw-oyster-septicemia-in-liver-disease.md)** udi mua kusama bantu badi banaya mâyi ne badi bapanduka ku mvula musangu umue.

Mukanda ewu udi ufila ngumu ya malu a luondapu lua lukasa lukasa ne kawena upingana pa muaba wa luondapu lua lukasa lukasa lua mu lupitadi lua bamanyi, dikonkonona dia masama a masama a nsongo, anyi dilombola dia nephrologie/ICU to. Bu mudi disama dia Weil ne disama dia leptospiral pulmonary hemorrhage mua kufikisha ku dipanga dia lukasa dia tshiadi ne dipangisha dia mupuya, tudi tukulomba bikole bua kulonga tulasa tua diambuluisha dia kumpala ne tua CPR tudibu banyishe kudi Croix-Rouge, St John Ambulance, anyi kudi mulongeshi wa muaba udibu basombele.
