The niche of <i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> sensu lato in Europe is predictable and mappable. [PDF]
Classic environmental niche modelling to examine the distribution of the causative agent of Lyme borreliosis Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bb) in the Western Palearctic, is often inadequate because it depends on both its tick vector(s), like Ixodes ricinus, and vertebrate reservoirs.

Lizards and the enzootic cycle of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. [PDF]
AbstractEmerging and re‐emerging pathogens often stem from zoonotic origins, cycling between humans and animals, and are frequently vectored and maintained by hematophagous arthropod vectors. The efficiency by which these disease agents are successfully transmitted between vertebrate hosts is influenced by many factors, including the host on which a ...

Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato widespread in urban areas of the Czech Republic. [PDF]
Abstract Background Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) are important zoonotic agents transmitted by Ixodes ricinus ticks, which are widely distributed across Central Europe. Understanding the spatial distribution of these pathogens’ prevalence will help identify areas with increased infection ...

Serologic Status of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in Patients with Cardiovascular Changes. [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases, particularly coronary heart disease (CHD) caused by atherosclerosis, have the highest worldwide incidence and mortality rate of any type of disease. Aside from risk factors associated with lifestyle and comorbidities, infectious agents such as Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato spirochetes, which cause Lyme disease, may also play ...
