Ticks Tick Borne Dis. 2017 Aug;8(5):787-794. doi: 10.1016/j.ttbdis.2017.06.004. Epub 2017 Jun 19.
This article presents the results of a comprehensive survey of the burden of tick-borne infectious diseases (TBIDs) in the Altai region of Russia. Official data for TBID incidence were analyzed and 201 samples from patients with suspected TBID were studied. Furthermore, questing ticks and ticks recovered from humans were examined to estimate prevalence of TBID-causative agents. The Altai region was determined to have a heightened risk for TBIDs in Russia. The most epidemiologically significant tick-borne illness in this area is spotted fever group rickettsiosis, while nationally in Russia, the leading TBID is Lyme borreliosis. The prevalence of mixed infection was 12.4% among the studied cases. Additionally, the prevalence of poorly studied pathogens - Kemerovo virus (KEMV) and Rickettsia tarasevichiae - in ticks from the Altai region was determined.
本文介绍了对俄罗斯阿尔泰地区蜱传传染病（TBIDs）负担进行全面调查的结果。分析了TBID发病率的官方数据，并对201份疑似TBID患者的样本进行了研究。此外，对采获的蜱以及从人体采集到的蜱进行了检测，以估计TBID病原体的流行情况。阿尔泰地区被确定为俄罗斯TBIDs风险较高的地区。该地区在流行病学上最具意义的蜱传疾病是斑点热群立克次体病，而在俄罗斯全国范围内，主要的TBID是莱姆病。在所研究的病例中，混合感染的患病率为12.4%。此外，还确定了阿尔泰地区蜱中研究较少的病原体——克麦罗沃病毒（KEMV）和塔拉塞维奇立克次体的流行情况。
