ARACHNIDISM

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1926
REPORT OF A TYPICAL CASE One late summer evening, a young Mexican laborer, while sitting down in an infrequently used outdoor toilet in a suburb of Los Angeles, felt a sharp prick on the end of the glans penis. On looking down he saw a coarse web spun across the hole in the seat of the toilet, and a shiny black spider with a red spot on its belly ...

A case of necrotising arachnidism

, 2006
Arachnidism is a clinical entity occuring as local or systemic manifestations after a spider bite. Bite of Loxosceles spiders causes a clinical reaction termed as loxoscelism. Cutaneous loxoscelism manifests as cutaneous necrosis whereas systemic symptoms and findings are observed in visserocutaneous loxoscelism.

Intravascular Coagulation: The Cause of Necrotic Arachnidism

, 1973
Venom from the brown recluse spider (Loxosceles reclusa) when injected into the skin of rabbits causes a characteristic inflammatory necrotic ulcer, comparable to the natural necrotic spider bite seen in man.

Spiders in Brazil: from arachnidism to potential therapeutic use of their venom part 1 of 2

, 2022
Spider envenomation, generically known as arachnidism, is described in many places around the world. In terms of medical importance, the following genera of animals stand out as the main origin of the morbid condition: Atrax (Sidney funnel web spider ...

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

Open‐land‐derived agroforestry and effects of abandonment of management of the main crop on ecosystem services and woody plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

Digging into dirt: Rewilding with threatened mammals shapes soil‐emerging insect assemblages

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
By comparing insect communities across treatments at two time points, we show that reintroduced digging mammals shape soil‐emerging insect assemblages. This provides empirical evidence that restoring ecosystem engineers may drive broader community‐level change in semi‐arid ecosystems. Abstract Digging mammals function as ecosystem engineers by altering

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
