The 20 pages that link to Lyme disease, each with the reason it gives.

• ZoonosisBroader topic: Its pathogen circulates among animal hosts before ticks transmit it to people.

• Vector-borne diseaseBroader topic: It shows how tick life stages and animal hosts contribute to transmission.

• AmoxicillinRelated: Amoxicillin is an oral treatment option for some early Lyme disease cases.

• Vector controlRelated: Tick management and bite prevention are applied to reduce exposure.

• DoxycyclineRelated: Doxycycline is a standard treatment for many early Lyme disease presentations.

• EctoparasiteRelated: Ticks are ectoparasites that can transmit the bacteria causing this disease.

• TetracyclineRelated: Tetracycline-class drugs, especially doxycycline, treat many cases of Lyme disease.

• TickRelated: It is a prominent example of a human disease transmitted by ticks.

• White-tailed deerRelated: Deer support adult blacklegged ticks, though they do not transmit the bacteria that cause Lyme disease.

• AcariRelated: It illustrates the public-health consequences of tick feeding and pathogen transmission.

• CeftriaxoneRelated: Intravenous ceftriaxone is used for selected severe manifestations, including certain neurologic or cardiac cases.

• Bacterial infectionBroader topic: It exemplifies bacterial transmission through an arthropod vector and disease beyond the initial bite.

• Tick-borne diseaseBroader topic: It is a common tick-borne disease in parts of North America, Europe, and Asia.

• Bell's palsyCompared with: Lyme disease can cause facial palsy, particularly where the infection is prevalent.

• HematophagyRelated: Tick feeding can transmit the bacteria that cause the disease.

• Tetracycline antibioticsRelated: Doxycycline is commonly used for many manifestations of this infection.

• Jarisch–Herxheimer reactionRelated: Treatment can provoke a similar reaction, particularly in early infection.

• CefuroximeRelated: Oral cefuroxime axetil is one treatment option for selected manifestations of Lyme disease.

• BorreliaBroader topic: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species cause Lyme disease, its most widespread human illness.

• Natural reservoirBroader topic: Small mammals and birds maintain Borrelia bacteria that ticks transmit to humans.
