Assessing the Use of Oxford Nanopore Technologies Sequencing for Detection of Stable Wolbachia Bacterial Strain in Symbiosis in Wild Anopheles Mosquitoes From the WHO African Region

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study assesses Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencing to detect Wolbachia in Anopheles mosquitoes. To do this, samples were analysed using the ONT field sequencing kit and sequenced using a minION flow cell and the ONT 16S barcoding kit and Rapid barcoding kit sequenced using Flongle flow cells.

Diagnosis and Management of Infectious Encephalitis in Adults: Guidelines From the European Academy of Neurology and European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Encephalitis is difficult to diagnose and manage, posing a challenge to clinicians. Since the last European guidelines were published in 2010, novel causes have emerged, diagnostic processes have evolved and treatments assessed which need to be reflected in updated guidelines.

Trends in Crimean–Congo Hemorrhagic Fever in Iraq, 2023–2025: A Descriptive Ecological Study of National Surveillance Data and Public Health Response Activities

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) remains a significant zoonotic and public health threat in endemic regions, including Iraq, which has experienced repeated outbreaks over the past decade. Recent surveillance data suggest evolving transmission dynamics influenced by climatic variability, ecological conditions, and the intensity

Molecular and Serological Screening of West Nile and Usutu Virus in Birds and Humans: A Sentinel Study in Finland

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
We developed sensitive real‐time PCR assays for West Nile virus and Usutu virus to screen bird and human samples in Finland. Although no positive samples were detected, active migratory flyways and recent cases in neighbouring countries highlight the risk of future introduction and the need for continued surveillance.

Seroprevalence of Lumpy Skin Disease and Livestock Owners’ Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices in Selected Districts of Kazakhstan

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
A cross‐sectional study conducted in 12 districts across four regions of Kazakhstan assessed LSDV seropositivity in cattle and livestock owners’ knowledge, attitudes and practices. Serum samples from 338 cattle were tested by ELISA, and questionnaires were completed by 533 livestock owners. Animal‐level and herd‐level seroprevalence were 23.4% and 18.8%

Molecular Detection, Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Babesia microti Infecting Wild Rodents

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Blood samples from 284 rodents captured across seven districts of Pakistan were screened for Babesia microti using 18S rRNA PCR. Overall prevalence was 12%, with infection detected in Rattus rattus, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus. Phylogenetic analysis showed close similarity with global isolates.

Spatio‐Temporal Dynamics of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Infection Using Animal Sentinel Herds in Senegal: March 2021–June 2024

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever virus (CCHFV) is a zoonotic arbovirus of major public health, transmitted to humans and animals by ticks or animals infected. Although previous evidence of CCHFV circulation was reported in central and southeastern bioecological areas of Senegal, its spatial and temporal dynamics remain poorly understood.
