Respiratoric
- Sputum
Culture of sputum and blood was negative. The patient recovered with fluid resuscitation and ciprofloxacin monotherapy. This is the first reported case of pneumonia complicating S. sonnei dysentery in an HIV-infected adult. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Purulent Sputum
The clinical picture was remarkable as the patient presented with cough and purulent sputum production, but otherwise no classical signs of pneumonia. Furthermore, there was no diarrhoeal episode in the recent history. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Sputum Production
The clinical picture was remarkable as the patient presented with cough and purulent sputum production, but otherwise no classical signs of pneumonia. Furthermore, there was no diarrhoeal episode in the recent history. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Productive Cough
An HIV-1-infected adult presented with a short history of dyspnoea, productive cough and myalgia with fever. Shortly after presentation, he developed the abrupt onset of high-volume watery diarrhoea: stool culture grew Shigella sonnei. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Diarrhea
A 20-month-old infant presented to the emergency department with diarrhea and vomiting of six days duration. Blood, stool and urine specimens were collected for both bacteriological culture and parasitic workup. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
They also say it would be best to keep children home from childcare if they are sick with diarrhea, avoid preparing food when you have diarrhea and avoid swimming for a few weeks after recovering from diarrhea. [aboutlawsuits.com]
- Abdominal Pain
Of the 568 (60.6%, 568/937) hospitalized students, 93.3% 86.8%, 72.4%, and 28.9% of the hospitalized patients had diarrhea, fever, abdominal pain, and vomiting, respectively. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Four teachers had mild abdominal pain and diarrhea. None of them was hospitalized and they recovered well in two to three days. [indianpediatrics.net]
The organism invades the epithelial cell of the large intestine which causes shigellosis with mucous and bloody diarrhea, fever and abdominal pain. [abcam.com]
- Nausea

[…] intestinal lining. crowded population where hygiene/ sanitation is poor (prisons, day care, mental hospitals; men who sleep with men) fecal contaminated food with water 1-3 days; usually 12-96 hours usually 4-7 days; may take weeks diarrhea, fever, nausea [quizlet.com]
IMage/CDC Shigellosis is a bacterial disease characterized by diarrhea, fever, nausea, and sometimes vomiting, cramps, and toxemia (blood poisoning from toxins produced by the bacteria). The diarrhea will often contain blood and mucus. [outbreaknewstoday.com]
If you have diarrhea and cannot drink fluids by mouth because of severe nausea, you may need medical care and intravenous (IV) fluids. This is more common in small children who have shigellosis. [nlm.nih.gov]
The shigella bacteria are very similar to the campylobacter, E coli and salmonella bacteria in that they all cause a form of food poisoning which is characterised by nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. [medic8.com]
Psychiatrical
- Suggestibility
This study suggests that these recent S. sonnei isolates are clonally related and multidrug-resistant. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
Blood, stool and urine specimens were collected for both bacteriological culture and parasitic workup. Concurrent infections with both Shigella sonnei and Vibrio cholerae were determined to be the cause of the infectious diarrhea. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Other workup for tick-borne infection including Lyme, Babesia, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma was negative. Autoimmune workups including ANA, antismooth muscle, liver/kidney microsome, and mitochondrial antibodies were negative. [hindawi.com]

Both Shigella species were able to survive in long term coculture assays in low-nutrient medium suggesting that, like Listeria monocytogenes, Shigella species can utilize amoeba debris for nutritional requirements ( 17 ). [aem.asm.org]
- Chlamydia
[…] patients who completed the sexual history questions reported previous high-risk sexual exposures; 6 of these patients and 1 patient who partially completed the questionnaire reported a history of other sexually transmitted infections, including gonorrhea, chlamydia [wwwnc.cdc.gov]

However, more severe infection can lead to colitis, ulcerations, bloody/mucoid stools, febrile diarrhoea, toxic megacolon, intestinal perforation and rectal prolapse (Niyogi, 2005; Phalipon et al ., 2008). References: Niyogi S.K. (2005) Shigellosis. [healthcare.bioquell.com]
Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis was significant for hepatic steatosis, hepatomegaly, mild right colitis, and absence of gallstones. [hindawi.com]
Compared with STEC-producing Stx1, STEC-producing Stx2 has been reported to be more highly pathogenic and to be associated with hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and hemorrhagic colitis ( 2 ); the association with HUS especially has been reported for subtypes [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hypertrophy
- Ventricular Hypertrophy
A 12 lead electrocardiogram revealed only left ventricular hypertrophy. The calculated fractional excretion of sodium was 0.7%. [priory.com]
Treatment
Although antibiotics are considered as efficient agents for shigellosis treatment, improper use of these has led to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant Shigella spp. Therefore, finding a new strategy as alternative treatment seems necessary. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Encouraging results suggests that bioenergy healing treatment as an integrative medicine against S. sonnei would be a better and safe treatment approach in near future. [trivedieffect.com]
Biofield treatment The lyophilized strain of S. sonnei were divided into three groups (G) like G-I (control), G-II (treatment, revived), and G-III (treatment, lyophilized). G-I consider as control. No treatment was given. [omicsonline.org]
Prognosis
The prognosis for shigellosis is generally good and most people recover even without medications within five to seven days. What is shigellosis? Shigellosis is a diarrheal disease caused by a group of bacteria called Shigella. [medicinenet.com]
Etiology
Publications "Genome dynamics and diversity of Shigella species, the etiologic agents of bacillary dysentery." [uniprot.org]
We report an unusual identification of S. sonnei as the only identified pathogen from respiratory specimens, which we therefore consider the most likely etiology of this subacute atypical pneumonia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Shigella was recognized as the etiologic agent for bacillary dysentery in the 1890's, and adopted as a genus in the 1950's and subgrouped into four species. [bacmap.wishartlab.com]
Epidemiology
The epidemiological characteristics of this outbreak suggest roles of risky sexual behaviours or networks in S. sonnei transmission. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
Similarly, the pathophysiological mechanism responsible for myonecrosis in Shigellosis and other bacterial infections is unclear. [priory.com]
[2] Together with Shigella flexneri, it is responsible for 90% of shigellosis cases. [3] Shigella sonnei is named for the Danish bacteriologist Carl Olaf Sonne. [4] [5] It is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, nonmotile, non-spore-forming bacterium. [6] Pathophysiology [en.wikipedia.org]
