Wormser's most recent paper argues that if a patient has a negative Lyme ELISA test on blood serum, then positive tests for Lyme based on immunological assays of synovial fluid, and also positive PCR tests, should be ignored, because all patients in a prior study of patients with Lyme who had positive blood serum tests had positive blood serum tests.

Would you mind identifying this paper?
