N. fowleri is typically found in warm bodies of fresh water, such as ponds, lakes, rivers, and hot springs. It is also found in soil, poorly maintained municipal water supplies, water heaters, near warm-water discharges of industrial plants, and in poorly chlorinated or unchlorinated swimming pools, in an amoeboid or temporary flagellate stage. There is no evidence of it living in salt water. As the disease is rare, it is often not considered. Symptoms are similar to those of meningitis. Although infection occurs rarely,[1] it nearly always results in death,[2][3] with a case fatality rate greater than 95%.[4] {{TOC limit|3}}Signs and symptomsOnset of symptoms begins one to nine days following exposure (with an average of five).[5] Initial symptoms include changes in taste and smell, headache, fever, nausea, vomiting, back pain,[6] and a stiff neck. Secondary symptoms are also meningitis-like including confusion, hallucinations, lack of attention, ataxia, cramp and seizures. After the start of symptoms, the disease progresses rapidly over three to seven days, with death usually occurring anywhere from seven to fourteen days later,[7] although it can take longer. In 2013, a man in Taiwan died twenty-five days after being infected by Naegleria fowleri.[8] It affects healthy children or young adults who have recently been exposed to bodies of fresh water.[9] Some people have presented with a clinical triad of edematous brain lesions, immune suppression, and fever.[10] CauseN. fowleri invades the central nervous system via the nose, specifically through the olfactory mucosa of the nasal tissues. This usually occurs as the result of the introduction of water that has been contaminated with N. fowleri into the nose during activities such as swimming, bathing, or nasal irrigation. The amoeba follows the olfactory nerve fibers through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone into the skull. There, it migrates to the olfactory bulbs and subsequently other regions of the brain, where it feeds on the nerve tissue, resulting in significant necrosis and bleeding.[11] The organism then begins to consume cells of the brain, piecemeal, by means of an amoebostome, a unique actin-rich sucking apparatus extended from its cell surface.[12] It then becomes pathogenic, causing primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM or PAME). PathogenesisNaegleria fowleri propagates in warm, stagnant bodies of freshwater (typically during the summer months), and enters the central nervous system after insufflation of infected water by attaching itself to the olfactory nerve.[9] It then migrates through the cribriform plate and into the olfactory bulbs of the forebrain,[13] where it multiplies itself greatly by feeding on nerve tissue. DiagnosisN. fowleri can be grown in several kinds of liquid axenic media or on non-nutrient agar plates coated with bacteria. Escherichia coli can be used to overlay the non-nutrient agar plate and a drop of cerebrospinal fluid sediment is added to it. Plates are then incubated at 37 °C and checked daily for clearing of the agar in thin tracks, which indicate the trophozoites have fed on the bacteria.[14] Detection in water is performed by centrifuging a water sample with E. coli added, then applying the pellet to a non-nutrient agar plate. After several days, the plate is microscopically inspected and Naegleria cysts are identified by their morphology. Final confirmation of the species' identity can be performed by various molecular or biochemical methods.[15]Confirmation of Naegleria presence can be done by a so-called flagellation test, where the organism is exposed to a hypotonic environment (distilled water). Naegleria, in contrast to other amoebae, differentiates within two hours into the flagellate state. Pathogenicity can be further confirmed by exposure to high temperature (42 °C): Naegleria fowleri is able to grow at this temperature, but the nonpathogenic Naegleria gruberi is not. PreventionMichael Beach, a recreational waterborne illness specialist for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, stated in remarks to the Associated Press that wearing of nose-clips to prevent insufflation of contaminated water would be effective protection against contracting PAM, noting that "You'd have to have water going way up in your nose to begin with".[16] Advice stated in the press release from Taiwan's Centers for Disease Control recommended people prevent fresh water from entering the nostrils and avoid putting their heads down into fresh water or stirring mud in the water with feet. When starting to suffer from fever, headache, nausea, or vomiting subsequent to any kind of exposure to fresh water even if the belief in none of the fresh water has traveled through nostrils, people with such conditions should be carried to hospital quickly and make sure doctors are well-informed about the history of exposure to fresh water.[17] TreatmentOn the basis of the laboratory evidence and case reports, amphotericin B has been the traditional mainstay of PAM treatment since the first reported survivor in the United States in 1982.[3] Treatment has often also used combination therapy with multiple other antimicrobials in addition to amphotericin, such as fluconazole, miconazole, rifampicin and azithromycin. They have shown limited success only when administered early in the course of an infection.[18] Fluconazole is commonly used as it has been shown to have synergistic effects against naegleria when used with amphotericin in-vitro.[3] While the use of rifampicin has been common, including in all four North American cases of survival, its continued use has been questioned.[3] It only has variable activity in-vitro and it has strong effects on the therapeutic levels of other antimicrobials used by inducing cytochrome p450 pathways.[3] In 2013, the two most recent successfully treated cases in the United States utilized drug combinations that included the medication miltefosine as well as targeted temperature management to manage cerebral edema that is secondary to the infection.[2] As of 2015 there were no data on how well miltefosine is able to reach the central nervous system.[3] As of 2015 the U.S. CDC offered miltefosine to doctors for the treatment of free-living ameobas including naegleria.[2] In 2018, a 10-year-old girl in the Spanish city of Toledo became the first person to have PAM in Spain, and was successfully treated using intravenous and intrathecal amphotericin B.[19] OutcomesSince its first description in the 1960s, only seven people worldwide have been reported to have survived PAM as of 2015, including three in the United States and one in Mexico; one of the US survivors had brain damage that is probably permanent.[20][21] Less than 1% of people with naegleriasis survive.[9] EpidemiologyThe disease is rare and highly lethal: there have only been 300 cases as of 2008.[22] Drug treatment research at Aga Khan University in Pakistan has shown that in-vitro drug susceptibility tests with some FDA approved drugs used for non-infectious diseases (digoxin and procyclidine were shown to be most effective of the drugs studied) have proved to kill Naegleria fowleri with an amoebicidal rate greater than 95%.[23] The same source has also proposed a device for drug delivery via the transcranial route to the brain.[24] The number of cases of infection could increase due to climate change, and was posited as the reason for three cases in Minnesota in 2010, 2012, and 2015.[25][26] As of 2013, numbers of reported cases were expected to increase, simply because of better informed diagnoses being made both in ongoing cases and in autopsy findings.[27] HistoryThis form of nervous system infection by amoeba was first documented in Australia in 1965.[28][29] In 1966, four cases were reported in the USA. By 1968 the causative organism, previously thought to be a species of Acanthamoeba or Hartmannella, was identified as Naegleria. This same year, occurrence of sixteen cases over a period of two years (1963–1965) was reported in Ústí nad Labem, Czechoslovakia.[30] In 1970, the species of amoeba was named N. fowleri.[31] Australian physicians Fowler and Carter first described human disease caused by amebo-flagellates in Adelaide in 1965.[44][32] Their work on amebo-flagellates has provided an example of how a protozoan can effectively live both freely in the environment, and in a human host. Since 1965, more than 144 cases have been confirmed in different countries. In 1966, Fowler termed the infection resulting from N. fowleri, primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) to distinguish this central nervous system (CNS) invasion from other secondary invasions made by other amoebae such as Entamoeba histolytica.[33] A retrospective study determined the first documented case of PAM possibly occurred in Britain in 1909.[34] The specific name, Naegleria fowleri, was named for Mathieu Naegler (1867–1934), a French parasitologist and zoologist who discovered the species for the first time in 1899 and Malcolm Fowler (1924–1974), the Australian doctor who described the distinct disease process of the pathogen in Australia in 1965.{{citation needed|date=March 2017}} Society and cultureNaegleria fowleri is also known as the "brain-eating amoeba". The term "brain-eating amoeba" has also been applied to Balamuthia mandrillaris, causing some confusion between the two; Balamuthia mandrillaris is unrelated to Naegleria fowleri, however, and causes a different disease called granulomatous amoebic encephalitis. Unlike naegleriasis, which is usually seen in people with normal immune function, granulomatous amoebic encephalitis is usually seen in people with poor immune function, such as those with HIV/AIDS or leukemia.[35]ResearchThe U.S. National Institutes of Health budgeted $800,000 for research on the disease in 2016.[36] Phenothiazines have been tested in vitro and in animal models of PAM.[37]Improving case detection through increased awareness, reporting, and information about cases might enable earlier detection of infections, provide insight into the human or environmental determinants of infection, and allow improved assessment of treatment effectiveness.[9] See also
