Campylobacter jejuni and Salmonella spp are the most frequently cultured micro-organisms in infectious gastroenteritis among patients hospitalized at the departments of gastroenterology and geriatrics. As a whole, the hospitalized patient population with Campylobacter gastroenteritis is a younger one, compared to the Salmonella-infected group. Both pathogens can be associated with a biochemical pancreatitis, which is usually without clinical importance. However, serious complications can occur, with a predominance of visceritis for C. jejuni, and renal function impairment for Salmonella spp. Finally, an asymptomatic carrier state is well known in the Salmonella infection spectrum, whereas C. jejuni might cause a recurrent disease in some patients.
空肠弯曲菌和沙门氏菌属是在胃肠病学和老年病学科室住院的感染性肠胃炎患者中最常培养出的微生物。总体而言,与沙门氏菌感染组相比,空肠弯曲菌肠胃炎的住院患者群体更年轻。这两种病原体都可能与生化性胰腺炎有关,而生化性胰腺炎通常无临床意义。然而,也可能发生严重并发症,空肠弯曲菌以内脏炎为主,沙门氏菌属以肾功能损害为主。最后,无症状携带状态在沙门氏菌感染谱中是众所周知的,而空肠弯曲菌在一些患者中可能会导致疾病复发。
