Human cat-scratch disease is mainly caused by Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae.
“The so-called human “cat-scratch disease” is mainly caused by Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [40]
Cats are reservoirs for Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae, while dogs may be accidentally infected by Bartonella spp., among which Bartonella vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii is incriminated as a cause of human cardiac disease in tropical areas.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
