Education on Tickborne Diseases and Prevention Strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Research suggests that around 300,000 people are diagnosed with Lyme disease each year and that around one billion dollars is spent on healthcare for Lyme disease alone.

CASP16 Protein Monomer Structure Prediction Assessment

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The assessment of monomer targets in the Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction Round 16 (CASP16) underscores that the problem of single‐domain protein fold prediction is nearly solved—no target folds were incorrectly predicted across all Evaluation Units.

The economic burden of Lyme disease and the cost-effectiveness of Lyme disease interventions: A scoping review

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Introduction While Lyme disease (LD) is mostly treatable, misdiagnosed or untreated LD can result in debilitating sequelae and excessive healthcare usage.

Science, Politics, and Values: The Politicization of Professional Practice Guidelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Connecticut Attorney General’s recent allegations that the Infectious Disease Society of America violated antitrust law through its treatment guidelines for Lyme disease were neither based in sound science or appropriate legal judgment.

The Borrelia afzelii outer membrane protein BAPKO_0422 binds human Factor-H and is predicted to form a membrane-spanning beta-barrel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The deep evolutionary history of the Spirochetes places their branch point early in the evolution of the diderms, before the divergence of the present day Proteobacteria.

Assessment of Protein Complex Predictions in CASP16: Are We Making Progress?

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The assessment of oligomer targets in the Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction Round 16 (CASP16) suggests that complex structure prediction remains an unsolved challenge. Even the leading groups can only predict slightly more than half of the targets to high accuracy.

Modified two-tiered testing algorithm for Lyme disease serology: the Canadian context

open access: yesCanada Communicable Disease Report, 2020
Background: Lyme disease (LD) is emerging in many parts of central and eastern Canada. Serological testing is most commonly used to support laboratory diagnosis of LD.

Modeling the effects of variable feeding patterns of larval ticks on the transmission of Borrelia lusitaniae and Borrelia afzelii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia burgdoferi sensu lato (sl) group cause Lyme Borreliosis (LB), which is the most commonly reported vector-borne zoonosis in Europe. B. burgdorferi sl is maintained in nature in a complex cycle involving Ixodes ricinus

A natural barrier: tick‐repellent potential of a spruce‐derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.
