    Sammanfattning : The spotted fever rickettsia, Rickettsia helvetica, is an endemic tick-borne bacteria in Sweden. It causes infections in humans, manifested as aneruptive fever, headache, arthralgia and myalgia, and sometimes an inoculation eschar or a rash. There have also been two known cases of human infections with R. felis in Sweden. LÄS MER

  4. 13. LYME BORRELIOSIS Detection and identification of the infecting genotype

    Författare :Katharina Ornstein; Sektion III; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parasitologi människa och djur ; Parasitology human and animal ; Infektioner; Infections; PCR; genospecies; Lyme borreliosis; Borrelia burgdorferi; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lyme borreliosis is caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, a bacterium with a parasitic life-style, which is transmitted between hosts by the Ixodes tick-vector. Humans will incidentally become infected. The resulting illness can involve the skin, nervous system, joints and heart. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Epidemiological aspects of tick borne diseases with focus on risk and prevention

    Författare :Louise Stjernberg; Pia Forsberg; Allmänmedicin och samhällsmedicin; []

    Sammanfattning : The incidence and variety of diseases associated with ticks have increased world-wide and ticks are currently considered to be second only to mosquitoes as vectors of human infectious diseases in the world. In the northern hemisphere, Ixodes ricinus, the most common tick, transmits diseases caused by several infectious pathogens, including different types of bacteria, virus and protozoa. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Ticking off the ungulate box : the role of different ungulate species in the transmission of tick-borne pathogens

    Författare :Nannet Fabri; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Ungulates play a central role in the life cycle of Ixodes ricinus, an important vector of tick-borne pathogens, and several ungulate species are increasingly common across Europe. I investigated the role of these different species in the spread of I. ricinus-borne pathogens. LÄS MER
