The Ecology of Lyme Borreliosis in Sweden
The geographical distribution of Lyme borreliosis (Lb) in the North European countries appears to coincide with the geographical distribution of the principal vector, the common tick Ixodes ricinus.

Lyme disease is a multisystem illness which is caused by the strains of spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and transmitted by the tick, Ixodes. Though very commonly reported from the temperate regions of the world, the incidence has increased worldwide due to increasing travel and changing habitats of the vector.

Borrelia and Genital Lichen Sclerosus: A Critical Review of the Evidence
ABSTRACT Background Lichen sclerosus (LSc) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that primarily affects the genitalia. Growing evidence supports chronic occlusive urine exposure as the principal pathogenic driver, though other mechanisms, including mechanical irritation, hormonal influences, autoimmunity, and infection, have been proposed.

HEMATOLOGICAL PARAMETERS IN PREDICTING OF THE COURSE OF LYME BORRELIOSIS IN CHILDREN
The study involved 224 patients with Lyme borreliosis children with erythema (103) and without erythema (121 children) forms. The analysis of the clinical symptoms and hematological parameters in the course of the disease was prosecute.

Risk Factors for Tick‐Borne Diseases in Germany: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne diseases (TBDs) have proliferated in Germany. The two most prevalent TBDs, Lyme‐borreliosis and tick‐borne encephalitis, can present with nonspecific symptoms and lead to serious neurological complications. To date, a review synthesising the risk factors of acquiring a TBD in Germany is missing.

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.

Background. It is difficult to confirm the diagnosis of the mixed infection of the erythema migrans form of Lyme borreliosis and tick-borne encephalitis at the onset of the disease because of delayed seroconversion. Purpose.

Lyme borreliosis in Europe [PDF]
Despite improvements in prevention, diagnosis and treatment, Lyme borreliosis (LB) is still the most common arthropod-borne disease in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, with risk of infection associated with occupation (e.g. forestry work) and certain outdoor recreational activities (e.g. mushroom collecting).

Citizen Science Tick Observations Serve as an Early Warning System for Tick‐Borne Diseases
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick observation data collected through citizen science is increasingly utilised to map tick‐borne infection risk areas indirectly, that is, based on the rate of tick encounters or occurrence of ticks. However, direct associations between tick observations and Lyme borreliosis (LB) cases have received little attention.
