In northern Europe, tick-borne diseases such as Lyme borreliosis (LB) and encephalitis (TBE) are well known. The actual incidence of Babesia infections, however, has remained elusive. this study, the prevalence antibodies against two spp. was investigated in a cohort patients that were seropositive for Borrelia (B.) burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.). Data compared to control group healthy individuals. Sera collected from 283 individuals residing southernmost region Sweden, Skåne County. Almost...
Abstract Background Today only indirect fluorescent antibody assays (IFAs) are commercially available to detect antibodies against Babesia divergens in humans. IFA is subjective and requires highly experienced staff. We have therefore developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)–based method for measuring anti–B. immunoglobulin G human blood samples. Methods Crude merozoite extract from vitro cultures of a new B. isolate was used ELISA different sets samples: Borrelia...
There is a lack of studies aiming to assess cellular disintegrin and metalloproteinase-17 (ADAM-17) activity in COVID-19 patients the eventual associations with shedding membrane-bound angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (mACE2). In addition, that investigate relationship between ACE2 ADAM-17 gene expressions organs infected by SARS-CoV-2 are lacking. We used data from Massachusetts general hospital study (306 78 symptomatic controls) association plasma levels 33 different substrates severity...
Abstract Purpose Healing outcome after Achilles Tendon Rupture (ATR) is variable and unsatisfactory. Many ATR patients still exhibit pain, functional deficits limitations in walking one-year post-surgery. The present study was designed to investigate the association between expression of healing biomarkers patient ATR. Methods biopsies were collected from 25 during surgery. At 1-year post surgery, all completed questionnaires; tendon Total Score (ATRS) Foot Ankle Outcome (FAOS), tested for...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created a global health- and economic crisis. Detection of antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which causes COVID-19 by serological methods is important diagnose current or resolved infection. In this study, we applied rapid IgM/IgG antibody test performed serology assessment response SARS-CoV-2. PCR-confirmed patients (n = 45), the total detection rate 92% in hospitalized 79% non-hospitalized patients. IgM IgG...
Background: New risk areas for tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) are emerging and the spread of disease vaccine coverage is unclear in Sweden. We wanted to study prevalence levels TBE-virus (TBEV) antibodies southern Sweden, investigate whether there were individuals with undiagnosed TBE. Materials Methods: Two cohorts sera collected: One group anonymous rural (AIRA) Skåne one volunteers who often got tick-bites (tick-bitten [TBI]). An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay TBEV IgM IgG was...
ABSTRACT The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created a global health- and economic crisis. Lifting confinement restriction resuming to normality depends greatly on COVID-19 immunity screening. Detection of antibodies severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which causes by serological methods is important diagnose current or resolved infection. In this study, we applied rapid IgM/IgG antibody test performed serology assessment response SARS-CoV-2. PCR-confirmed...
