| [antibacterial therapy as a means of preventing ixodid tick-borne borreliosis]. | a special epidemiological experiment to prevent borreliosis in persons bitten by infected ticks was performed in 1992-1994 in the russia's perm region where borrelia garinii and b.afzelii circulate, and ixodes persulcatus tick is the sole vector transmitting these pathogens to human beings. adult ticks were removed from the bodies of persons who had referred to health facilities for first aid. vital preparations were made from the material obtained from the gut of each tick and examined microsco ... | 1996 | 8926931 |
| [the isolation of borrelia from the tick ixodes trianguliceps (ixodidae) and the possible significance of this species in the epizootiology of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses]. | ixodes trianguliceps is a common tick species of the eurasian forest zone. these ticks live probably in natural foci of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (itbb) from western europe to transbaikalia, but their role in circulation of corresponding pathogens remains unclear. this study was performed in a natural itbb focus located in the perm region of russia (near the urals), where borrelia garinii and b. afzelii circulate and i. persulcatus serves as their main vector. in july-august of 1994, 296 sma ... | 1996 | 8975209 |
| [long-term dynamics of the epizootic process in natural foci of ixodid tick borreliosis in mountain taiga forests of the middle ural]. | during eleven spring-summer seasons (1992-2002), the dynamics of the epizootic process in natural foci of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (itbb) were studied in taiga forests of the middle ural (perm province, russia). in these foci, borrelia garinii and b. afzelii circulate, and their main vector is the ixodes persulcatus tick. main parameters of the epizootic process were calculated for each season. in four seasons (1993, 1996, 1999 and 2002), the parameters characterizing the abundance of unfed ... | 2004 | 15174388 |
| [isolation of tick-borne borreliosis agent from blood of patients]. | during spring-autumn period of 2006 borrelia were isolated for the first time in russia from blood of 79 patients treated in perm city clinical hospital for infectious diseases no. 1 with diagnosis "tickborne borreliosis, manifestive form with migrating erythema, localized stage". ten primary isolates (12.7% of total seeded samples) were obtained by seeding plasma samples on the bsk medium. their subsequent identification by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragments length polymorphism rev ... | 2009 | 19340967 |
| comparative analysis of the roles of ixodes persulcatus and i. trianguliceps ticks in natural foci of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses in the middle urals, russia. | long-term studies on natural foci of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (itbb) have been performed in chusovskoi district of perm region, the middle urals, where the vectors of these infections are represented by two ixodid tick species: the taiga tick ixodes persulcatus and many times less abundant vole tick i. trianguliceps. over 10 years, more than 6000 half-engorged ticks were collected from small forest mammals using the standard procedure, and 1027 i. persulcatus and 1142 i. trianguliceps ticks ... | 2015 | 25843812 |
