Testicular Degeneration and Infertility following Arbovirus Infection [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2018
During the recent Zika epidemic, it has become apparent that arboviruses could potentially cause reproductive health problems in male patients. Little is known regarding the effects that arboviruses have on the male reproductive tract. Here, we studied bluetongue virus (BTV), an arbovirus of ruminants, and its effects on the testes of rams.

Impact of climate on Australian, non‐Vector‐borne infectious animal diseases: A scoping review

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Changes to Australia's climate continue to be increasingly relevant for human, animal and planetary health, and have far‐reaching impacts on disease emergence and food security. There is a deficit of knowledge in Australia around how climatic conditions are affecting infectious animal diseases, beyond the more obvious spatial distribution changes of ...

Design and optimisation of rapid real‐time PCR assays for the detection of key Culicoides species

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Species‐specific real‐time PCR assays were designed and optimised using primer/probe sets targeting C. obsoletus, C. scoticus, C. chiopterus, C. dewulfi, C. pulicaris, C. punctatus and C. impunctatus. Primer specificity and amplification efficiency were validated through in silico specificity analysis and real‐time PCR amplification profiling.

Come together: Data sharing to support one health responses to vector‐borne disease threats

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
A One Health framework integrating diverse data across human, animal and environmental sectors is essential for effective surveillance and response is vital for responding to vector‐borne disease risks. Communities adopting global data standards, depositing data in shared repositories, and responsible data use can significantly improve VBD data ...

Baseline Seroprevalence of Arboviruses in Liberia Using a Multiplex IgG Immunoassay

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease
Insect-borne viruses may account for a significant proportion of non-malaria and non-bacterial febrile illnesses in Liberia. Although the presence of many arthropod vectors has been documented, the collective burden of arbovirus infections and baseline ...

Temperature and precipitation differently influence entomological indices based on larval or adult sampling

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Larval indices, especially house infestation index (HI) and breteau index (BI), were significantly associated with temperature and precipitation, indicating that warmer and wetter conditions increase Aedes aegypti breeding‐site positivity. Adult indices, trap positivity index (TPI) and adult density index (ADI) showed no significant association with ...

Ecology of arboviruses and their potential mosquito vectors in Benin, Côte d’Ivoire and Gabon: a mini review

Frontiers in Tropical Diseases
Mosquito-borne arboviral zoonoses are an increasingly (re-)emerging threat for millions of people in endemic countries of Africa. Aedes-transmitted yellow fever (YF), dengue (DEN), chikungunya (CHIK), and Zika (ZIK) viruses, as well as Aedes- and Culex ...

Early Warning Systems and Emergency Declarations During Brazil's Largest Dengue Outbreak

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Early warning systems (EWSs) are essential for alert, detection, and response to potential public health emergencies. Brazil's 2024 dengue epidemic, the largest ever recorded, offers a critical case for assessing correspondence between timely epidemic risk detection and health governance responsiveness.
