Presentation
It is seen frequently in infants and young children who can present with severe, often life-threatening symptoms. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
However, genomic sequencing has uncovered a host of other adhesins present in these organisms, the functions of which are only starting to be investigated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Entire Body System
- Plethora
A large repertoire of RNA-based regulatory mechanisms, including a plethora of cis- and trans-acting noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), sensory RNA elements, regulatory RNA-binding proteins, and RNA-degrading enzymes have been uncovered lately as key players in [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Vietnamese
A 49 years old Vietnamese male with a history of thalassemia, presented with gastrointestinal symptoms and signs of hemolysis. He was diagnosed with yersinia enterocolitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Neurologic
- Excitement
Importantly, the analysis of Yersinia riboregulators has not only uncovered crucial elements and regulatory mechanisms governing host-pathogen interactions, it also revealed exciting new venues for the design of novel anti-infectives. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
(See Pathophysiology, Etiology, Clinical Presentation, and Workup.) [7, 8] Classification Y enterocolitica is classified according to various distinct biochemical and serologic reactions. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Treatment
Faeces, biopsy specimens (by sigmoidoscopy), and serum were taken at the start, at regular intervals, and after treatment. [ard.bmj.com]

Treatment This organism is resistant to penicillin and its derivatives. The best course of treatment seem to be from the tetracyclines, however, the newer quinolones such as ciprofloxacin may also be effective. [ehagroup.com]
Prognosis
Some forms present with liver and spleen abscesses and have worse prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis Yersiniosis is usually either self-limited or is responsive to therapy; however, reinfection is possible. Most patients with Y enterocolitica infection are symptomatic; however, asymptomatic carriage may occur. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Every year, thousands of cases of the plague are still reported to the World Health Organization, although with proper treatment, the prognosis for victims is now much better. [en.wikipedia.org]

Pathophysiology As with other members of the genus Yersinia, Y enterocolitica is an invasive organism that appears to cause disease by tissue destruction. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Pathophysiology One usually acquires Yersinia pseudotuberculosis from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after consumption of contaminated food. A large inoculum is usually required to produce disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
