Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne illness in the Northern hemisphere and is caused by spirochetes of the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex. A first sign of Borrelia infection is a circular skin rash, erythema migrans, but it can develop to more serious manifestations affecting skin, nervous system, joints, and/or heart. The marked increase in Lyme disease incidence over the past ...
BACKGROUND Lyme disease is a multisystem inflammatory disease caused by infection with the tick-borne spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi and is the most common vector-borne infection in the United States. We assessed the efficacy of a recombinant vaccine consisting of outer-surface protein A (OspA) without adjuvant in subjects at risk for Lyme disease. METHODS For this double-blind trial, 10,305...
Few diseases have aroused more emotional attention in the press and the public than Lyme disease. Discussions have not only focused on the increasing incidence 1 or the choice of appropriate treatment, but also on perceived inadequacy of serological testing and whether or not persisting fatigue, cognitive dysfunction and musculoskeletal pain are 'real disease' and related to persistent infectio...
PURPOSE The primary aim was to carry out a pilot study to compare the loss of sexual libido between a group of Lyme disease patients and a group of matched controls. The secondary aim was to evaluate whether loss of libido in Lyme disease patients is associated with urinary bladder detrusor dysfunction. METHODS A group of 16 serologically positive Lyme disease patients and 18 controls were qu...
Purpose Chronic Lyme disease is a term that describes a constellation of persistent symptoms in patients who may or may not have serologic evidence of Borrelia burgdorferi infection. Little has been published in the medical literature about patients with chronic Lyme disease or their relationships with healthcare providers. The objective of this study was to gain insights into the health belief...
The Deutsche Borreliose-Gesellschaft (German Society of Lyme-Borreliosis) raises objections to the IDSA Lyme Guidelines published in 2006. The fundamental basis for our objections is that the implementation of the IDSA guidelines extends beyond the United States and into Europe. Accordingly, our ability to diagnose and treat patients with Lyme disease is being severely restricted by these guide...
Lyme borreliosis is very important for dermatovenereologists because of its skin manifestations that include erythema chronicum migrans, lymphadenosis benigna cutis, and aerodermatitis chronica atrophicans. In Croatia, the spirochete Borrelia burgodorferi was first isolated in 1991 at University Department of Dermatology and Venereology, Zagreb University Hospital Center. In October 2003, the L...
We studied 93 patients with unclassified uveitis from two regions in Japan (Hokkaido and Kanagawa) to assess the contribution of Borrelia species to this condition. The seroprevalence of antibody to Borrelia species was higher in patients from Hokkaido than in those from Kanagawa. The unclassified uveitis of seropositive patients was probably a complication of Lyme borreliosis since (i) the ant...
Although Lyme disease is the most common tickborne illness in the USA and Eurasia, the pathophysiology and clinical course of chronic Lyme disease (CLD) have not been formally defined. The purpose of this paper is to present a working case definition of CLD based on analysis of more than 700 peerreviewed publications. According to this definition, CLD is a multisystem illness with diverse muscu...
When Lyme disease was described eight years ago, we hoped that someday it would be an established entity, that multiple investigators would be working on the problem, and that we would meet to discuss our work. The First International Symposium on Lyme Disease is a dream come true. Lyme disease has come of age. For this meeting, many of the people who have been interested in and contributed to ...
