UNDERSTANDIG THE LYME DISEASE, CLASSIFICATION AND CODES II, / LOS CODIGOS DE LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME II


LYME DISEASE, CLASSIFICATION AND CODES II.

ENFERMEDAD DE LYME, CLASIFICACION Y CODIGOS II.

 

 



EDITORIAL ENGLISH 
==================
Hello friends of the network I hope that very well,  this Christmas DERMAGIC EXPRESS brings you the second chapter of THE CODES OF LYME DISEASE. In the previous review I said that some details were missing that I was going to clarify in another edition that I am preparing and that was titled LYME, SYPHILIS AND LEPROSY, THE MISSING LINK, but I knew that the CLASSIFICATION AND CODES OF LYME were INCOMPLETE, and today  I will put here.

I had said that CODES at the DIGITAL or SOFTWARE level are based on a classification and that this is done in terms of the clinical presentation of the disease and REPORTS, PUBLICATIONS and SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATIONS; and that the World Health Organization (WHO) is TOTALLY out of date regarding this and THEREFORE there is not enough coverage of the LYME DISEASE AND ITS MULTIPLE CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS, COMPLICATIONS and SYMPTOMS derived from the permanence of the SPIROCHETE BORRELIA In the body, the bases that support these facts are:

1.) DIFFICULTY TO MAKE THE DIAGNOSIS:
2.) RESISTANCE TO CONVENTIONAL TREATMENT:
3.) THE LACK OF MODERNIZATION OF THE CODES FOR THE LYME DISEASE.

And today I bring you other BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCES that would complete a CLASSIFICATION that in my view would FULLY ENLARGE assistance to THOUSANDS OF PATIENTS carrying LYME that simply do not "APPEAR IN THE SYSTEM" because the CODES do not exist. Today I add a 4th and 5th aspect:

4.) LYME DISEASE AND HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS: (HLA)
===================================================
It is noteworthy in these data that today I will place, that the MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY SYSTEM (HLA) is HIGHLY involved in the LYME DISEASE, specifically the patients carrying the HLA DR molecules, it is even said that the presence of these molecules or ALLELES are involved in the pathogenicity of this disease and the triggering of AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES. In fact, there are studies showing the RESISTANCE TO SOME ANTIBIOTICS in relation to these HLA molecules.

There are HLA molecules that confer RESISTANCE TO THE DISEASE and OTHERS SUSCEPTIBILITY to the treatment, this would facilitate even more the behavior to follow with the patients; and I finish with this:

"... ALL PATIENT CARRIER OF LYME HAS TO HAVE A STUDY OF HISTOCOMPATIBILITY (HLA) ANTIGENS ..."

5.) LYME DISEASE AND GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION:
===============================================
It is well known that the BORRELIA BURGDORFERI and its multiple SPECIES in the terrestrial globe, ARE DIFFERENT AS TO GEOGRAPHY, both in EUROPE and AMERICA. Well, I also tell you that there are studies showing that THE SPECIES OF BORRELIA in some ZONES such as EUROPE are sensitive to certain antibiotics, which in other areas of the continent show resistance, so that the GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION AND SPECIES OF THE BORRELIA SPIROCHETE must be included in THE CODES.

6.) LYME DISEASE AND OPTICAL MICROSCOPY:
==========================================
The BORRELIA is an SPIROCHETE like the SYPHILIS, and the METHOD STANDART to detect the SYPHILIS IS OPTICAL MICROSCOPY, "DARK FIELD", then appeared other more sophisticated methods such as the VDRL and others. In the case of the BORRELIA, in the year 2.013 the professors LAANE and MYSTERUD, invented a simple method based on the fact that the BORRELIA, like the SYPHILIS TREPONEMA, could be "DETECTED" by means of a SIMPLE OPTICAL MICROSCOPE and that's how it was. They published the work (ref. 320), but were later discredited and dismissed by the scientific society including the CDC, claiming that the most effective methods were the laboratory ones, and today YET, many of the tests for LYME are negative and the BORRELIA "NAVIGATE" in the blood of patients. There I leave you the photo of BORRELIA AND BIOFILM and Professor LAANE.

If you read the previous review the CLASSIFICATION had been in the point No. 15: and here I put the continuation, it is important that you read the previous revision so that you can understand: THE CODES OF THE LYME DISEASE. CLICK here

I will remind you that the options DAPSONE + MINOCYCLINE + RIFAMPICIN and DAPSONE + CLOFAZIMINE + RIFAMPICIN are today classic treatments used in LEPROSY for more than 60 years and through which they have managed to reduce the incidence of this disease in the world today.

Practically the arrival of this TRIAD = DAPSONE + RIFAMPICIN + CLOFAZIMINE, in the 40s -50s years was the one who decreed the FINAL CLOSURE of the LEPROSERIES in the WORLD, read the stories here:

       - THE LEPROSY IN CAPE WHITE. Clik Here
       - LEPROSY ON THE ISLAND OF PROVIDENCIA. Click here 

And as I told you before, do not miss the next issue of LYME, SYPHILIS AND LEPROSY, THE MISSING LINK.

Finally, I would like all the organizations and communities that fight against the LYME DISEASE, to send this CLASSIFICATION, CODES and BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES to the World Health Organization (WHO), so that they can be updated regarding the serious problem that this disease represents in all the PLANET and that has been neglected for being aware of other health problems, much smaller, thinking perhaps that everything related to the word LYME, is an optical illusion that blinds them to such a severe problem. 

Greetings to all.

EDITORIAL ESPAÑOL
==================
Hola amigos de la red espero que muy bien en estas Navidades DERMAGIC EXPRESS les trae el segundo capítulo de LOS CODIGOS DE LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME. En La revisión previa dije que faltaban algunos detalles que iba a aclarar en otra edición que ya estoy preparando y que se titulara LYME, SIFILIS Y LEPRA, EL ESLABON PERDIDO, pero sabía que la CLASIFICACION Y LOS CODIGOS DE LYME estaban INCOMPLETOS, y hoy te los pongo acá.

Había dicho que los CODIGOS a nivel DIGITAL o SOFTWARE están basados en una clasificación y que esta se hace en cuanto a la presentación clínica de la enfermedad y LOS REPORTES, PUBLICACIONES e INVESTIGACIONES CIENTIFICAS; y que la Organización Mundial de La Salud (OMS) , está TOTALMENTE desactualizada en cuanto a ello y POR LO TANTO no hay la suficiente cobertura de la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME Y SUS MULTIPLES MANIFESTACIONES CLINICAS, COMPLICACIONES y SINTOMAS derivados DE LA permanencia de la ESPIROQUETA BORRELIA en el cuerpo, las bases que sostienen estos hechos son:

1.) DIFICULTAD PARA HACER EL DIAGNOSTICO:
2.) RESISTENCIA AL TRATAMIENTO CONVENCIONAL:
3.) LA FALTA DE MODERNIZACION DE LOS CODIGOS PARA LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME.
 


Y hoy te traigo otras REFRENCIAS BIBLIOGRAFICAS que completarían una CLASIFICACION que a mi modo de ver AMPLIARIA TOTALMENTE la asistencia a MILES DE PACIENTES portadores de LYME que simplemente no "APARECEN EN EL SISTEMA" pues los CODIGOS no existen. Hoy le agrego un 4to y 5to aspecto:

4.) ENFERMEDAD DE LYME Y ANTIGENOS DE HISTOCOMPATIBILIDAD: (HLA)
===============================================================
Es de resaltar en estos datos que hoy te voy a colocar que el SISTEMA MAYOR DE HISTOCOMPATIBILIDAD (HLA) está ALTAMENTE involucrado en la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME, específicamente los pacientes portadores de las moléculas HLA DR, incluso se habla de que la presencia de estas moléculas o ALELOS están involucrados en la patogenicidad de esta enfermedad y el desencadenamiento de ENFERMEDADES AUTOINMUNES. De hecho hay estudios donde se demuestra LA RESISTENCIA A ALGUNOS ANTIBIOTICOS en relación a estas  moléculas HLA.

Hay moléculas HLA
que confieren RESISTENCIA A LA ENFERMEDAD y OTRAS SUSCEPTIBILIDAD al tratamiento, esto facilitaría aun más la conducta a seguir con los pacientes; y finalizo con esto:

"...TODO PACIENTE PORTADOR DE LYME TIENE QUE TENER UN ESTUDIO DE ANTIGENOS DE HISTOCOMPATIBILIDAD (HLA)..."

5.) ENFERMEDAD DE LYME Y DISTRIBUCION GEOGRAFICA:

================================================
Bien es sabido que la BORRELIA BURDORGFERI y sus múltiples ESPECIES en el globo terráqueo, SON DIFERENTES EN CUANTO A LA GEOGRAFIA, tanto en EUROPA como AMERICA. Pues también te digo que hay estudios donde se demuestra que LAS ESPECIES DE BORRELIA en algunas ZONAS como EUROPA son sensibles a determinados antibióticos, donde en otras áreas del continente muestran resistencia, DE MODO que la DISTRIBUCION GEOGRAFICA Y ESPECIES DE LA ESPIROQUETA BORRELIA deben FIGURAR EN LOS CODIGOS.

6.) ENFERMEDAD DE LYME Y MICROSCOPIA OPTICA:

============================================
La BORRELIA  es una ESPIROQUETA al igual que la SIFILIS, y el METODO ESTANDART para detectar la SIFILIS ES LA MICROSCOPIA OPTICA, "CAMPO OSCURO", luego aparecieron otros métodos más sofisticados como el VDRL y otros más. En el caso de la BORRELIA, en el año 2.013 los profesores LAANE y MYSTERUD, idearon un método sencillo basado en el hecho de que la BORRELIA al igual que la SIFILIS, TREPONEMA podía "DETECTARSE" por medio de una SIMPLE MICROSCOPIA OPTICA y así fue. Publicaron el trabajo (ref. 320), pero fueron posteriormente desacreditados y desechados por la sociedad científica incluyendo el CDC, alegando que los métodos más eficaces eran los de laboratorio, y hoy día TODAVIA, muchas de las pruebas para LYME dan negativo y la BORRELIA "NAVEGA" en la sangre de los pacientes. Allí les dejo la foto de la BORRELIA Y BIOFILM y el profesor LAANE.

UNDERSTANDING THE LYME DISEASE, CLASSIFICATION AND CODES. / LOS CODIGOS DE LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME


  LYME DISEASE, CLASSIFICATION AND CODES.

ENFERMEDAD DE LYME, CLASIFICACION Y CODIGOS.












EDITORIAL ENGLISH
=================
Hello friends of the network DERMAGIC brings you today another interesting topic about the very well known ERYTHEMA MIGRANS or LYME DISEASE, transmitted by the bite of a TICK, of the IXODES genus being the causal agent an ESPIROCHETE, well known as BORRELIA BURDORGFERI, described for the first time by WILLY BURGDORFER in the year 1.981, and previously known as LYME ARTHRITIS. Today I bring you THE CODES OF LYME'S DISEASE.

 Currently worldwide LYME DISEASE has become a major public health problem, due to the annual increase in cases, which in the United States amounts to about 380,000, new cases annually 2 times more than breast cancer and 6 times more than AIDS, and beyond this, the lack of modernization of the DISEASE CODES at the SOFTWARE or DIGITAL level
them do not appear currently and they need to be recognized so that patients to be and treated in time.  

The events that I present below they are highly related to this lack of "CODIFICATION" of the LYME DISEASE and its different ways of manifesting itself clinically:
 
1.) DIFFICULTY TO MAKE THE DIAGNOSIS:

===========================================================================
It is well known that some TEST, to diagnose the disease, result in "NEGATIVE" due to the ability of the causative agent, the spirochaete BORRELIA to "hide (BIOFILM) before the diagnostic tests." Many patients with symptoms of different diseases such as MENINGITIS , ARTHRITIS, and RECURRENT FEVER, in late stages it is discovered that they are LYME "POSITIVE" after having multiple tests for the diagnosis, losing a VALUABLE TIME to initiate an adequate treatment, and the worse thing is that the chronic development of these symptoms, impar the quality of life of patients who are unattended because they do not have a SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS.

2.) RESISTANCE TO CONVENTIONAL TREATMENT:

==============================================================================
Another aspect to consider is that BORRELIA and its species over time have developed a "GREAT RESISTANCE" to conventional therapy with the usual antibiotic treatments: MINOCYCLINE, DOXICYCLINE, AMOXICILLIN, CEFUROXIME, and many OTHERS, leading patients to the despair at the occurrence of the codification of the symptoms. LYME DISEASE has FOUR STAGES CLASSICALLY known: INITIAL (I), SECONDARY (II), LATE (III) AND CHRONIC (IV).

3.) THE LACK OF MODERNIZATION OF THE CODES FOR THE LYME DISEASE:

==============================================================================
In this modern and GLOBALIZED world, digitalization and information technology have become essential elements and everything or almost everything HAS A CODE, even DISEASES at the software level, and in the case of LYME DISEASE these must be UPDATED, and this is done based on the EVIDENCE REPORTS, STUDIES AND PUBLICATIONS of the different manifestations of the disease.

Then you will be asking why the LYME DISEASE needs the update of its CODES? If you enter in the World Health Organization (WHO) and look for LYME DISEASE, you will only find TWO (2) mentions in the subject ZOONOSES, transmission by TICKS: LYME DISEASE and RECURRENT FEVER (BORRELIOSIS), and the latest relevant reports  in terms of studies of the disease by WHO date from the years 1,993 and 1,995:

1.) WHO Workshop on Diagnosis and Surveillance of Lyme Borreliosis. Warsaw, Poland, 20-22 June 1995, Ref.: WHO / CDS / VPH / 95.141:
The countries involved were: Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Yugoslavia, France, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, Holland, Poland, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States.
2.) Report of a WHO Workshop on Lyme Borreliosis. Piestany, Slovak Republic, 6 October 1993, Ref: WHO / CDS / VPH / 93.132:

The countries involved: Germany, Slovakia and the United States. If you read those reports you will notice that they are TOTALLY OUT OF DATE regarding the REALITY of LYME DISEASE today.

And I will always give you the answer.

I will place here more than 270 BIBLIOGRAPHY REFERENCES classified based on the different manifestations of LYME DISEASE or LYME BORRELIOSIS that are sufficient to RECOGNIZE that beyond "LYME DISEASE" AND "RECURRENT FEVER (BORRELIOSIS) there are other manifestations of the BORRELIOSIS that should be CODIFIED, DIGITALIZED, to give a total coverage to the DISEASE and search of its clinical manifestations.

This "ABSENCE" of CODES causes that many patients carrying LYME are not treated ADEQUATELY, because they DO NOT "APPEAR IN THE SYSTEM" with their respective consequences.

Here I ask the INNOCENT question, what happens is "UNKNOWN" or "INTENTIONED"? because to recognize all these IMPLIED CODES means more public spending by the State and the insurance companies.

EDITORIAL ESPAÑOL
=================

Hola amigos de la red DERMAGIC te trae hoy otro tema interesante sobre la muy bien conocida ERITEMA MIGRANS o ENFERMEDAD DE LYME, transmitida por la picadura de una GARRAPATA, del genero IXODES siendo el agente causal una ESPIROQUETA, bien conocida como BORRELIA BURDORGFERI, descrita por primera vez por WILLY BURGDORFER en el año 1.981,  y previamente conocida como ARTRITIS DE LYME. Hoy te traigo LOS CODIGOS DE LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME.

 Actualmente  a nivel mundial la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME se ha convertido en un gran problema de salud pública, debido al aumento anual de los casos, que en los Estados unidos asciende a unos 380.000, casos nuevos anuales, 2 veces más que el cáncer  de mama y 6 veces más que el SIDA, y mas allá de esto, la falta de modernización de los CODIGOS DE LA ENFERMEDAD a nivel de SOFTWARE o DIGITAL, Estos no aparecen actualmente y deben ser reconocidos para que los pacientes puedan ser tratadosr a tiempo.

Los eventos que presento a continuación están altamente relacionados con esta falta de "CODIFICACIÓN" de la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME y sus diferentes formas de manifestarse clínicamente:


1.) DIFICULTAD PARA HACER EL DIAGNOSTICO:
=======================================
Ya bien es conocido que algunos TEST, para diagnosticar la enfermedad dan como resultado "NEGATIVO" por la habilidad que tiene el agente causal, la espiroqueta BORRELIA de "esconderse (BIOFILM) ante las pruebas diagnosticas. Muchos pacientes con síntomas de diferentes enfermedades como MENINGITIS, ARTRITIS, y  FIEBRE RECURRENTE, en etapas tardías se descubre que son LYME "POSITIVOS" luego de hacerse múltiples pruebas para el diagnostico, perdiéndose un TIEMPO VALIOSO para iniciar un tratamiento adecuado, y lo peor es que el desarrollo crónico de estos síntomas, daa la calidad de vida de los pacientes que son desasistidos por no tener UN DIAGNOSTICO ESPECIFICO.

2.) RESISTENCIA AL TRATAMIENTO CONVENCIONAL:
============================================
Otro de los aspectos a considerar es que la BORRELIA  y sus especies con el tiempo han desarrollado una "GRAN RESISTENCIA" a la terapia convencional con los consabidos tratamientos antibióticos: MINOCICLINA, DOXICICLINA, AMOXICILINA, CEFUROXIMA, y OTROS, llevando a los pacientes a la desesperación al producirse la cronificación de los síntomas.  La ENFERMEDAD DE LYME tiene CUATRO ETAPAS CLASICAMENTE conocidas: INICIAL (I), SECUNDARIA (II), TARDIA (III) Y CRONICA (IV).

3.) LA FALTA DE MODERNIZACION DE LOS CODIGOS PARA LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME:
=====================================================================
En este mundo moderno y GLOBALIZADO, la digitalización y la informática se han convertido en elementos esenciales y todo o casi todo TIENE UN CODIGO, aun las ENFERMEDADES a nivel de software, y en el caso de la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME estos deben ser ACTUALIZADOS, y esto se hace en base a las EVIDENCIAS REPORTES, ESTUDIOS Y PUBLICACIONES de las distintas manifestaciones de la enfermedad.

Entonces te estarás preguntando porque la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME necesita la actualización de sus CODIGOS? Si tú te metes en la Organización Mundial de La Salud (WHO) y buscas LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME, solo encontraras DOS (2) menciones en el tema ZOONOSIS, transmisión por GARRAPATAS: LYME DISEASE y FIEBRE RECURRENTE (BORRELIOSIS), y los últimos reportes relevantes en cuanto a  estudios de la enfermedad por la OMS  datan de los años 1.993 y 1.995:

1.) WHO Workshop on Lyme Borreliosis Diagnosis and Surveillance. Warsaw, Poland, 20-22 June 1995, Ref: WHO/CDS/VPH/95.141:

Los países involucrados fueron: Austria, Bulgaria, Republica Checa, Dinamarca, Yugoslavia, Francia, Hungría, Irlanda, Japón< Holanda, Polonia, Rusia, Suecia, Suiza, Reino Unido y Estados Unidos.

2.) Report of a WHO Workshop on Lyme Borreliosis. Piestany, Slovak Republic, 6 October 1993, Ref: WHO/CDS/VPH/93.132:

Los países involucrados: Alemania, Eslovaquia y Estados Unidos. Si te lees esos reportes podrás notar que están TOTALMENTE DESACTUALIZADOS en cuanto a la REALIDAD de la ENFERMEDAD DE LYME hoy día.

 Y yo como siempre te voy a dar la respuesta:

Te voy a colocar acá mas de 270 REFERENCIAS BIBLIOGRAFICAS clasificadas en base a las distintas manifestaciones de LA ENFERMEDAD DE LYME o LYME BORRELIOSIS que son suficientes para RECONOCER que mas allá de "ENFERMEDAD DE LYME" Y "FIEBRE RECURRENTE (BORRELIOSIS) hay otras manifestaciones de la BORRELIOSIS que deben ser CODIFICADAS, DIGITALIZADAS, para darle una total cobertura a la ENFERMEDAD y búsqueda de sus manifestaciones clínicas. 

Esta "AUSENCIA" de CODIGOS provoca que muchos pacientes portadores de LYME no sean atendidos ADECUADAMENTE, pues NO "APARECEN EN EL SISTEMA" con sus respectivas consecuencias.

Aquí me hago la INOCENTE pregunta, esto que ocurre es "DESCONOCIMIENTO" o "INTENCIONADO"? porque reconocer todos estos CODIGOS IMPLICARIA más gasto publico por parte del Estado y de las compañías de seguros.
