Tereza Rojko - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Tereza Rojko is a researcher affiliated with the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University Medical Centre Ljubljana in Slovenia. Her work is primarily focused on the study of infectious diseases, with a particular emphasis on Lyme borreliosis and other tick-borne diseases. Her research contributions have made significant impacts in understanding the clinical, immune, and genetic characteristics of these infections.

Research Contributions

Tereza Rojko has authored several influential papers exploring various aspects of Lyme borreliosis and related infections. Her research includes studies on the unique clinical, immune, and genetic signatures in patients with borrelial meningoradiculoneuritis, the characteristics of spirochetemic patients with solitary erythema migrans lesions, and the direct spread of Borrelia into the central nervous system in Bannwarth's syndrome. She has also investigated the differences in early Lyme borreliosis presentations between Europe and North America, as well as the epidemiology and characterization of Legionella pneumophila in Slovenia. Her work extends to understanding the effects of statin use on Lyme neuroborreliosis and the outcomes in patients treated with immunosuppressive therapies like Rituximab and tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors.
