Shigellosis due to shigella dysenteriae - what does this mean

What happens during the disease - shigellosis due to shigella dysenteriae
Shigellosis is caused by the ingestion of shigella dysenteriae, a gram-negative, facultative anaerobic, nonmotile, rod-shaped bacteria. after ingestion, the bacteria invade the mucosal cells of the small intestine, causing inflammation and destruction of the cells. this leads to the release of toxins and other virulence factors, which result in the development of diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fever, and dehydration. in more severe cases, the infection can spread to other parts of the body, leading to complications such as sepsis, pneumonia, and meningitis.
