Since the identification of Borrelia burgdorferi as the agent of Lyme disease in 1982, 11 tick-borne human bacterial pathogens have been described throughout Europe. These include five spotted fever rickettsiae, the agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis, four species of the B. burgdorferi complex and a new relapsing fever borrelia. We present these emerging diseases and focus on the factors that play a role in the recognition of new tick-borne diseases.
自1982年伯氏疏螺旋体被确认为莱姆病的病原体以来，欧洲已发现11种由蜱传播的人类细菌性病原体。其中包括5种斑点热立克次体、人类粒细胞埃立克体病的病原体、伯氏疏螺旋体复合体的4个种以及一种新的回归热疏螺旋体。我们介绍这些新出现的疾病，并重点关注在新的蜱传疾病识别中起作用的因素。
