die anderen werte sind negativ,
borrelia burgd. - IgG Ak i. S. (Eia) < 5
" IgM Ak i. S. (EIA) 10
und dann eben
p 41 positiv
p 41 stark positiv
wahrscheinlich sollte ich sei einfach ignorieren

Allenfalls wären Untersuchungen von Krankheiten sinnvoll, die zu positiven p41 führen können, wenn Symptome vorhanden sind. Mir fällt da EBV und treponema pallidum (Syphilis) ein.
Inwiefern das, Aspi?
Hast du positive Herpesvirentiter? Bei einer EBV-Infektion kann insofern auch im Borrelien - Blot die p 41 positiv kreuzreagieren.
Viele Grüße Quittie
Wenn die so alleine im Blot nachweisbar sind, bleibt dir nichts anderes übrig. Allenfalls wären Untersuchungen von Krankheiten sinnvoll, die zu positiven p41 führen können, wenn Symptome vorhanden sind. Mir fällt da EBV und treponema pallidum (Syphilis) ein.
Ansonsten: Mit entsprechender Vorgeschichte und Symptomen darf eine Borreliose nicht aufgrund von Bluttest-Ergebnissen ausgeschlossen werden. Notfalls bleibt einem nach Ausschluss anderer möglicher Krankheiten nur ein Versuch mit Antibiotika.

This statistical chicanery, which fudged the result at 41 kDa on Bb blot by many multiples, is significant, because syph serum will cross react at 41 kDa to Bb western blots. It allowed them to 'swift boat' the importance of the reaction to 41 kDa, which is the earliest and most consistent human ab response to Bb infection, being present in all stages as opposed to the rest of the proteins which are variably expressed according to stage, tissue type, even temperature.
Flagellin {41kDa} is necessary for Bb to survive under all conditions, and is constantly expressed, including in late CNS infection. Yet they chose to swift-boat this response.
ja, leider gleich mehrere positive herpesviren. u. a. auch ebv...
ich habe anscheinend "das kleinere übel" gewählt.)
Lustig wie sich hier alle darauf verlassen dass es eine "Kreuzreaktion" sein kann, wobei diese Information eigentlich genausoein Bullshit ist wie die Behauptung Borreliose sei nicht chronisch...

The 41 band is non-specific. It is meaningless by itself. Haven't we all heard this. It cross reacts with other spirochetes. Maybe not. Early studies, with Allen Steere as a co-author, showed that the 41 band was the band that was most prevalent and showed up earliest in the course of Lyme infection. The CDC considers it specific. It is one of only 3 IgM bands tested in their surveillance test. IgeneX considers it specific, it is marked with a double asterisk.
I have reviewing the literature. Cross reactivity studies were done with syphilis. This does occur. How many syphilis patients have I seen in suburban practice in the last 20 years? One. Syphilis is easy to rule out. What about other spriochetal diseases? Yes. It can cross react with leptospirosis, rat bite fever and relapsing fever. What did Steere have to say? These diseases can be ruled out by clinical presentations. Not out only are these diseases very rare, but they cause a severe, sometimes life threatening illness which clinically looks nothing like Lyme.
I am quoting a paper co-authored by Allen Steere, circa 1984. Current papers like to say that the 41band cross may reacts with dental spirochetes. Does the evidence support this? The answer is no. The primary dental spirochete is Treponema denticola. It is present in patients with periodontal infections. It is not particularly antigenic since it is protected within biofilms. The DNA structure of this spirochete has been worked out. It is very different from Borrelia. The 41 band reacts to a flagellum protein of Borrelia, the Lyme spirochete. The flagellum proteins of T. denticola are quite different from those of Borrelia. They are antigenically different. This was tough to find, but here it is: The WB or immunoblot bands that are specific for T. denticola flagelin proteints are: 38kd, 53kd and 72kd.
In fact, the best known dental spirochete does not react with the 41 band. Author after author continues to state that the Lyme 41 band may occur beause of cross reactivity with dental spirochetes. It is always qualified with the word "may." There is no evidence to support this theory. All are in agreement that the 41band is specific for spirochetes. The other spirochetes known to cause this cross reaction can easily be ruled out! To quote Carl Sagan: "When all the likely causes of an effect have been ruled out, then that which remains, no matter how unlikely it appears, must be the truth." You only have a 41 band. The only question which has to answered is: How do you explain its appearance if it not due to Lyme disease?
