Lyme study highlights why small mammals spread disease


The Poughkeepsie Journal just reported a study published in PLOS one explaining why small mammals spread not only Lyme disease, but other tick-borne co-infections. "This study suggests that because the small critters tend to congregate in large numbers, the pathogens that cause Lyme disease, babesiosis and anaplasmosis have more opportunities to adapt to their hosts. This creates a compounding effect whereby animals that don't effectively fight off the disease also provide more opportunities for the diseases to adapt to their meager defenses". Patients with Lyme-MSIDS often suffer from chronic borreliosis as well as other tick-borne co-infections like Babesiosis, and once these co-infections are properly diagnosed and treated, many patients with persistent symptoms improve.

While I am not nearly as far along in my understanding of her approaches as you are I have to say that there is very little science regarding Lyme and Babs that really makes any sense.

Les deux prévenus étaient soutenus à l'audience par un grand nombre de malades, qui crient au "déni" de cette affection, mais aussi par des médecins.
"Il y a en France une sous-estimation dramatique de cette maladie", a déclaré à la barre le Pr Christian Perronne, spécialiste des maladies infectieuses à l'hôpital universitaire Raymond Poincaré de Garches (Hauts-de-Seine) et membre du Haut conseil de la santé publique.
Les tests de détection "ont été calibrés il y a 30 ans de manière à ce que cette affection soit rare (...) et on n'est jamais revenu sur ce dogme", a-t-il déploré.
"Des milliers de malades vivent un enfer, car ils sont bafoués, confrontés à un déni, à une omerta", a témoigné de son côté Judith Albertat, présidente de l'association "Lyme sans frontières", qui se bat pour une nouvelle approche de la malad

Borrelia spirochetes have been found in the urine of infected dogs (31, 50) horses (45, 51) and cattle (45), in both symptomatic and asymptomatic animals.


Very interesting article from Australia:
<< Borrelia spirochetes have been found in the urine of infected dogs (31, 50) horses (45, 51) and cattle (45), in both symptomatic and asymptomatic animals. Studies on mice found that the spirochetes in urine remained viable for 18-24 hours and concluded that “Urine may provide a method for contact non-tick transmission of B. burgdorferi in natural rodent populations particularly during periods of nesting and/or breeding” (52: pg 40). Evidence for direct contact transmission has been demonstrated in mice (53) and further studies are required in larger animals to ascertain the potential for the borrelia spirochete to be transmitted simply by being in close contact with an infected animal.>>
 
Clinical Lyme Disease In Animals
Apart from humans, dogs, cats, horses and cattle appear to be the only animals that may develop a clinical illness due to a borrelia infection (25). The primary symptom in all these animals is arthritic in nature, where inflammation of joints and limbs may lead to lameness. Dogs are competent reservoir hosts (26) and seem to be the most susceptible to developing a clinical illness (25, 27). As they are generally in close contact with humans, rates of borrelia infection/exposure in dogs has also been studied in order to try and ascertain what the degree of risk of borrelia exposure to humans may be within particular areas/ environments (28-30). Apart from lameness (shifting leg lameness in particular), other symptoms in dogs may include; anorexia/weight loss, malaise, neurological dysfunction (25), severe polyarthritis (27), renal lesions (31,32), splenomegaly/ lymphadenopathy, intraocular inflammation (33) abnormal gait and convulsions (34). Cats are more prone to asymptomatic infections (33), though as well as lameness they may develop; fever, anorexia, fatigue (35-36), and kidney problems (37). Asymptomatic infections seem to be the most common in horses and cattle (38-41), although clinical illness can develop with symptoms in both animals including lameness, uveitis and weight loss (38, 41-43). Other signs in cattle include decreased milk production and abortion (42, 44,45), with head tilt, encephalitis (46,47), aborted, reabsorbed foetuses and foal mortality also being reported in clinical disease in horses (48,49).

Schizophrenia is 8 diseases


Study: Schizophrenia is 8 diseases
Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disorder that affects about 1% of the population, according to the American Psychiatric Association. Symptoms can vary from hallucinations to disordered speech to attention and decision-making problems.
Past studies done on twins and families have shown that about 80% of the risk for schizophrenia is inherited, the study authors say. A study published in July showed as many as 108 genes may be tied to the mental health disorder. But scientists have had trouble identifying specific genetic variations that put people at risk.
The Washington University researchers looked at instances where a single unit of DNA was altered, which is known as a single nucleotide polymorphism, or SNP. Then they identified 42 interactive SNP sets that significantly increased people's risk of schizophrenia, according to the study.
