Abstract
- To further describe the incidence of LB within countries, a systematic literature review abstracted published national and subnational level incidence data for the period 2005-2020. The first country-specific analysis, by Nuttens et al, reports and compares three sources of LB incidence data for France: the "Sentinelles" network (national surveillance of general practitioners), a separate general practitioners EMR data system, and the French national hospital discharge database. Since the observation of EM in Europe and its recognition as Lyme borreliosis (LB), documentation of the disease's epidemiology has evolved substantially. [Extracted from the article]
