Appearance Of Lyme Disease Rash Can Help Predict How Bacteria Spreads Dr. wolgemuth and graduate student dhruv vig developed a fairly simple mathematical model that can account for the growth and appearance of a lyme disease rash and might be used to predict the densities of the disease causing bacteria in relationship to the rash as a function of time during spreading. By revealing that the bacteria and immune cell populations change as a rash progresses, the model may help guide lyme disease treatment. "the model that we have developed can be used to predict.
Landscape And Climate Factors Can Predict Prevalence Of Lyme Disease Lyme disease is often evident by a rash on the skin, but infections do not always produce similar rashes. this can make it difficult to detect the disease early, when antibiotic treatment is most. Abstract lyme disease (ld), caused in the united states primarily by borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, is a tick borne illness characterized by a spectrum of clinical manifestations depending on the stage of illness. most clinicians are familiar with the classic bullseye appearance of the erythema migrans (em) rash that occurs in the early stage of the disease. however, many providers may not.
