Sodoku disease and nervous system

Abstract

Ratbite fever (ratbite fever) or sodoku fever has long been an epidemic in Japan, India and China. In Europe and America, only isolated cases of this disease were noted in the 19th century (Wilcox in 1839, Watson in 1840, Zellino, Packard in 1872, Milo-Carantier in 1883, etc.). A detailed description of sodoku appeared in European literature only in 1900 (Miyake). Over the past decades, there has been a significant spread of this disease in Europe, America, Asia, Australia and other parts of the world. These cases became especially frequent during the years of the imperialist war. In total, until 1928, according to Arkin and Ruge, more than 350 cases were published in the world literature.
