Chlamydia Pneumoniae Infections and Sudden Unexpected Deaths in Denmark.
Johannsen, Finn
Scientific Journal of Orienteering, v9 n1-2 p19-26 Fall 1993
Blood samples from 38 runners on the Danish national orienteering team revealed no ongoing chlamydia pneumoniae, although 42% had an earlier infection, similar to the incidence in the general population. However, over 2% had an ongoing lyme borreliosis infection, and 18% had an earlier infection, which is a higher incidence than in the general population. (KS)
