Some spirochetes within the order Spirochaetales are known to be pathogenic and can cause diseases in humans and animals. Notable examples include:
Borrelia burgdorferi: Causes Lyme disease, which is transmitted through the bite of infected ticks.
Treponema pallidum: Causes syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection.
Leptospira spp.: Cause leptospirosis, a bacterial infection that can be transmitted through contact with contaminated water or soil.
Commensal and Environmental Spirochetes:
Not all spirochetes within the order Spirochaetales are pathogenic. Some are part of the normal microbial flora in the gastrointestinal tracts of animals, including humans, and contribute to various ecological processes.
Lyme Disease:
Lyme disease, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and transmitted by ticks, is a well-known spirochetal infection. It can lead to symptoms such as fever, fatigue, joint pain, and skin rashes. If left untreated, Lyme disease can progress to more severe complications.
Syphilis:
Treponema pallidum, the spirochete responsible for syphilis, can cause a range of symptoms, including sores, rashes, and systemic involvement. If not treated, syphilis can progress to more serious stages affecting multiple organs.
Leptospirosis:
Leptospirosis, caused by various Leptospira species, can lead to flu-like symptoms and, in severe cases, affect the liver, kidneys, and other organs. It is often associated with exposure to water or soil contaminated with the urine of infected animals.
Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
Desired Levels Suggestions for Spirochaetales
Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation
These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
