Borrelia miyamotoi: a widespread tick-borne relapsing fever spirochete

Trends in Parasitology, 2015
Borrelia miyamotoi is a relapsing fever spirochete that has only recently been identified as a human pathogen. Borrelia miyamotoi is genetically and ecologically distinct from Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, while both are present in Ixodes ticks. Over 50 patients with an acute febrile illness have been described with a B. miyamotoi infection, and two

Tick-borne relapsing fever in North America

Medical Clinics of North America, 2002
Relapsing fever is characterized by recurring episodes of fever and nonspecific symptoms (e.g., headache, myalgia, arthralgia, shaking chills, and abdominal complaints). The illness is caused by an infection from the Borrelia species (spirochetes) that may be acquired through the bite of an infected tick (Ornithodoros species) or contact with the ...

Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever in Children

Pediatrics, 1980
Three cases of tick-borne fever diagnosed during the summer of 1979 are reported and the eco-epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment of this infection are reviewed. Although challenging, the diagnosis can be made easily if specific historical clues are sought and the patient's blood smear is carefully examined.

Louse and Tick Borne Relapsing Fevers

Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2013
Relapsing fever, caused by spirochaetes belonging to the genus Borrelia, was once the cause of worldwide epidemic zoonotic disease. This was largely through infection with the louse-borne form of the disease, caused by Borrelia recurrentis [(louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF)]. Another form of replasing fever is caused by Borrelia duttonii [(tick-borne

Post exposure prophylaxis of tick-borne relapsing fever

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2009
Tick-borne relapsing fever (TBRF) is endemic to Israel. Since 2004, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has mandated the prophylaxis of tick-bitten subjects with a five-day doxycycline course. We examined the safety and effectiveness of this policy in preventing TBRF.

Tick-borne Relapsing Fever in the Eastern United States

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1978
Tick-borne relapsing fever is endemic in the western part of the United States, but it has not been reported east of the Mississippi River. Sporadic cases have been reported in the eastern part of the United States, but travel to the West during the incubation period appeared to provide the source of infection.

Tick-borne relapsing fever in a premature infant

Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 1985
Relapsing fever is caused by the Borrelia species of spirochetes. Louse-born epidemics of the disease may occur but the endemic disease is usually transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected tick (Ornithodorus). Transplacental infection was suggested more than 75 years ago (1) but has been rarely documented (2).
