Characteristics of patients consulted for suspected Lyme neuroborreliosis in an endemic area
Introduction
Some patients with unexplained neurological symptoms sought care for presumed Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB). We aimed to compare patients’ characteristics with and without LNB.
Material and methods
All patients consulting for LNB suspicion and having a lumbar puncture between 2014 and 2020 in a high endemic area of Lyme borreliosis were included in the study.
Results
One hundred fifty-five patients were included. Forty-five patients (29 %) had LNB (mean age: 57.6 years, 28.9 % of women) including 17 with isolated intrathecal synthesis. One hundred and ten patients had no LNB (mainly neurological (29 %) and rheumatological diseases (19 %)).
Non-neurological symptoms were similar in patients with LNB and patients with no LNB (asthenia, 31 % vs. 46 %, p = 0.14, arthralgia 20 % vs. 31 %, p = 0.14) with the exception of myalgia, which was less frequent in patients with LNB (4.4 % vs. 19.1 % p = 0.02). In multivariable analysis, factors associated with LNB were presence of facial nerve palsy (OR = 5.7), radiculopathy (OR = 11.3), positive Lyme serology (OR = 5.4) and duration of symptoms less than 3 months (OR = 4.48). Patients with isolated intrathecal synthesis had a longer duration of symptoms (3 vs 1 months) than patients with pleocytosis. Asthenia (5.9 % vs. 32.1 %), headaches (0 % vs. 39.3 %) neuropathic pain (17.6 % vs. 50 %) and facial palsy (11.8 % vs. 39.3 %) were less frequent in patients with isolated intrathecal synthesis than patients with pleocytosis. The presence of isolated subjective neurological symptoms (paresthesia, memory disorders, insomnia, irritability, asthenia, headaches) was reported in 7/17 (41 %) of patients with isolated intrathecal synthesis, 2/28 (7.1 %) in patients with pleocytosis and 75/110 (68 %) in patients without LNB (p < 0.001).
Conclusion
More than one quarter of patients consulted for suspected LNB had non-neurologic symptoms, whether or not they have a LNB. Concerning patients with isolated intrathecal synthesis, the question of presence of sequelae with a spontaneously cured disease or an active Lyme borreliosis requiring antibiotic remain.
期刊介绍:
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases is an international, peer-reviewed scientific journal. It publishes original research papers, short communications, state-of-the-art mini-reviews, letters to the editor, clinical-case studies, announcements of pertinent international meetings, and editorials.
The journal covers a broad spectrum and brings together various disciplines, for example, zoology, microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, mathematical modelling, veterinary and human medicine. Multidisciplinary approaches and the use of conventional and novel methods/methodologies (in the field and in the laboratory) are crucial for deeper understanding of the natural processes and human behaviour/activities that result in human or animal diseases and in economic effects of ticks and tick-borne pathogens. Such understanding is essential for management of tick populations and tick-borne diseases in an effective and environmentally acceptable manner.
