Make a schematic flowchart of pathogenesis of Salmonella causing enteric fever. Mention two important categories of drug resistance in Salmonella typhi.
Pathogenesis of Salmonella causing Enteric Fever (Flowchart):
Ingestion of Salmonella typhi (contaminated food/water)
↓
Survival of gastric acid, Invasion of small intestine (M cells, enterocytes)
↓
Uptake by Macrophages in Peyer's Patches
↓
Replication within macrophages, Dissemination via lymphatic system and bloodstream
↓
Colonization of reticuloendothelial organs (liver, spleen, bone marrow)
↓
Secondary bacteremia, Release of bacteria into bloodstream
↓
Clinical manifestations: Fever, headache, abdominal pain, rose spots, organ damage
