Borrelia and Genital Lichen Sclerosus: A Critical Review of the Evidence
We reviewed the evidence linking Borrelia as an aetiological factor to LSc. Thirty‐six studies were included. No significant differences in Borrelia detection were observed between LSc and comparator dermatoses using ELISA, PCR, culture, or microscopy. A significant difference observed with IHC was considered an outlier.

Mapping Zoonotic Risk With a Biogeographic Perspective on Transmission Cycles
ABSTRACT Aim When mapping the transmission risk of zoonotic diseases, the way vectors and wild carrier hosts are integrated into the modelling process has relevant impacts on the final output. The wide diversity of zoonotic cycles entails that a single methodological approach may be insufficient to cover the influence of vectors and wild carrier hosts ...

Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato Employs Several Escape Mechanisms to Bypass the Human Defense System
Integrated overview of host defense and immune evasion in Lyme Borreliosis. Bbsl evades immunity through tick saliva‐mediated suppression of innate defenses, TLR2/NOD2‐driven cytokine dysregulation, and interference with JAK/STAT and CIITA‐dependent antigen presentation.
