sodoku Path.|ˈsodoku|
[Jap.]
The form of rat-bite fever caused by Spirillum minus.
1926Trans. Soc. Tropical Med. & Hygiene XIX. 183 Apert and his colleagues suggested the use of stovarsol or tréparsol by the mouth in the case of persons who had been exposed to the infection of sodoku. 1955W. L. Jellison in T. G. Hull Dis. transmitted from Animals to Man (ed. 4) xxvii. 539 The term ‘sodoku’ is from the Japanese (so, a rat, doku, poison) and is being resorted to more commonly by American workers to avoid controversy and confusion over the correct application of the term rat-bite fever. Sodoku is primarily an infection of rats, mice, and other rodents. 1970Scand. Jrnl. Infectious Dis. II. 71/1 Two aetiologically different but clinically similar diseases may occur as results of rat-bites: the Japanese Sodoku caused by Spirillum minus, and the bacillary form. |
