Clinical and microbiologic findings in six patients with erythema migrans of Lyme disease

Abstract

The clinical course of six patients with erythema migrans of Lyme disease was viewed in the context of antibiotic susceptibility studies of their own Borrelia burgdorferi isolates. An initial poor response by two patients to antibiotic therapy suggested the possibility of B. burgdorferi resistance to these agents. Minimum bactericidal concentration determinations of eight antimicrobial agents against these isolates did not support this suggestion.

Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.
