Borrelia is a genus of bacteria of the spirochete phylum. [1] Several species cause Lyme disease, also called Lyme borreliosis, a zoonotic, vector-borne disease transmitted by ticks.Other species of Borrelia cause relapsing fever, and are transmitted by ticks or lice, depending on the species of bacteria. [2] A few Borrelia species as Candidatus Borrelia …

2024年9月14日 · Borrelia garinii is a spirochete bacterium and one of the primary agents responsible for Lyme borreliosis (LB), particularly in Eurasia. Belonging to the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) complex, B. garinii is characterized by its close association with avian hosts, distinguishing it from other Lyme disease-causing species, such as Borrelia afzelii and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto.

Educational Gaps. Although Lyme disease, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, is the most common vector-borne disease in the United States, there is considerable misunderstanding about the clinical manifestations and consequences of this infection.()(When to perform diagnostic tests and how to interpret the results for antibodies against B burgdorferi are common sources of confusion for physicians ...

2020年5月19日 · Spirochetes of the genus <i>Borrelia</i> are divided into relapsing fever borreliae and Lyme disease borreliae. Immunoserological assays have been poorly developed for relapsing fever borreliae, where direct detection methods are more adapted to the pathophysiology of these infections presenting wit …

2020年5月26日 · Lyme borreliosis is the most common vectorborne disease in the northern hemisphere. It usually begins with erythema migrans; early disseminated infection particularly causes multiple erythema migrans or neurologic disease, and late manifestations predominantly include arthritis in North America, and acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans (ACA) in Europe.

2022年8月8日 · Lyme disease: see separate module for Borellia burgdorferi sensu latu.; Epidemic, louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF): person-person transmission of Borrelia species such as B. recurrentis (like typhus) by human body louse (Pediculus humanus). Worldwide infection (ex. S’ Pacific) B. recurrentis only causes epidemic louse-borne RF.; Spirochete, helical 5-40µm long with 3-10 spirals (see Fig 1).

2020年11月25日 · Aperiomics. Aperiomics testing uses metagenomic sequencing with blood samples, tissue swabs (oral and nasal), urine specimens, or fecal samples to identify every known bacteria, virus, fungus, and parasite — their database alone contains more than 37,000 microorganisms.. Aperiomics tests for both Lyme disease and coinfections, but it will likely come with a hefty price tag.

Pathogen. Lyme borreliosis (LB) is a tick-transmitted bacterial infection caused by some members of the spirochete group Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato.It is the most prevalent tick-transmitted infection in temperate areas of Europe, North America and Asia, and its geographic distribution is ever-increasing.

Doch der Nachweis von Antikörpern zeigt nur an, ob das Immunsystem im Lauf des Lebens bereits einmal Kontakt zu Borrelien hatte, nicht aber, ob es sich um eine frische Infektion handelt.

Borrelien sind schraubenförmige Bakterien und gehören zur Gruppe der Spirochäten. Sie entstehen in Ratten und Mäusen. Durch Zecken als Krankheitsüberträger werden sie auf unterschiedliche Lebewesen übertragen. Viele Tiere sind gegen Borrelien immun, während beispielsweise Pferde, Hunde, vor allem aber der Mensch nicht immun sind.
