Abstract

During the period of 1993-2002 an increase and the remarkable changes in the incidence of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) and Lyme borreliosis (LB) as well as annual activities of vector species were noticed. The highest increase of TBE morbidity in Latvia has been observed in 1994 and 1995, and less expressed also in 1998 which was followed by a significant decrease during subsequent years. Whereas the highest peak of LB morbidity has been noticed in 1998 with only a minor decrease during subsequent years. Two epidemiologically significant Ixodes tick species are common in Latvia. Ixodes ricinus L. spread in the western and central part of Latvia; but rarely and in small numbers also in the eastern part. Ixodes persulcatus P. Sch. seems to dominate only in the eastern part of the country. The changes of seasonal and annual activities of I. ricinus were observed in two types of monitoring sites--sylvatic and peridomestic, located in the central part of Latvia. Observations of I. persulcatus were made in the eastern districts. Comparing geographically the Tick-borne diseases (TBD) incidence data for three tick distribution regions (I. ricinus dominated, I. persulcatus dominated and mixed regions), it was observed that the trend of annual changes in LB incidence during the last decade is almost of the same kind for all regions. Whereas TBE incidence extremes in 1994 and 1995 were observed almost only in I. ricinus dominated region. The annual field-collected adult tick infection…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
