Two patients with headache and pleocytosis were diagnosed with Rickettsia felis infection using a polymerase chain reaction of cerebrospinal fluid and serological testing. Sequencing of the amplified products showed that they were 99-100% homologous to R. felis. These cases add to our knowledge of the clinical manifestations, as well as the geographical distribution, of this spotted fever agent.
两名患有头痛和脑脊液细胞增多症的患者通过脑脊液聚合酶链反应和血清学检测被诊断为感染了猫立克次体。扩增产物的测序结果显示，它们与猫立克次体的同源性为99%-100%。这些病例增加了我们对这种斑点热病原体的临床表现以及地理分布的认识。
