JNI | Abstract | Alzheimer's disease - a neurospirochetosis. Analysis of the evidence following Koch's and Hill's criteria.

Spirochetes were observed in the brain in more than 90% of Alzheimer's cases .Spirochetal infection (Borrelia and treponemes) occurs years or decades before the manifestation of dementia. "As adequate antibiotic and anti-inflammatory therapies are available, as in syphilis, one might prevent and eradicate dementia". Borrelia burgdorferi is one of several pathogens able to promote beta-amyloid deposition. It is clear that the regular detection and elimination of pathogens could have a marked effect on the incidence of Alzheimer's disease.
