Seroprevalencia de enfermedad de Lyme en el suroccidente de Asturias

Abstract

Resumen Introduccion Para la correcta interpretacion de los marcadores serologicos de la enfermedad de Lyme es muy importante conocer la tasa de infeccion en el entorno. El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer la prevalencia de anticuerpos especificos frente a Borrelia burgdorferi en una comarca rural del norte de Espana. Metodos Se investigo la presencia de anticuerpos IgG frente a B. burgdorferi mediante un metodo inmunoenzimatico cualitativo en el suero de 1.432 personas divididas en 3 grupos: 316 donantes de sangre, 432 individuos que acudieron al hospital sin causa infecciosa y 684 a los que se solicito una serologia de Lyme como parte del diagnostico diferencial. En estos ultimos se registro la presencia o ausencia de factor de riesgo ocupacional. Resultados Se detectaron anticuerpos frente a B. burgdorferi en 189 (13,2%) individuos: 16 (5,1%) donantes de sangre, 62 (14,4%) personas que acudian al hospital sin causa infecciosa y 111 (16,2%) personas con diagnostico diferencial de enfermedad de Lyme (p Conclusiones La prevalencia en este estudio es alta y superior a zonas con caracteristicas similares de nuestro pais, pero esta en la media de lo publicado en otras regiones europeas. La prevalencia en donantes de sangre es menor que en los otros grupos estudiados. La edad avanzada, el sexo masculino y las practicas de riesgo ocupacional se relacionan con una mayor prevalencia de enfermedad de Lyme.
