Finally, infectious diarrhea may be associated with systemic
manifestations. Reiter's syndrome (arthritis, urethritis, and conjunctivitis) may
accompany or follow infections by Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella, and
Yersinia. Yersiniosis may also lead to an autoimmune-type thyroiditis,
pericarditis, and glomerulonephritis. Both enterohemorrhagic E. coli (O157:H7)
and Shigella can lead to the hemolytic-uremic syndrome with an attendant high
mortality rate. The syndrome of postinfectious IBS has now been recognized as a
complication of infectious diarrhea. Acute diarrhea can also be a major symptom
of several systemic infections including viral hepatitis, listeriosis, legionellosis,
and toxic shock syndrome.
