Occurrence and Haematology of Canine Tick‐Borne Protozoa in Dhaka City, Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
• 30.62% of dogs were infested with Rhipicephalus sanguineus, which was mostly found on their neck and chest; however, infection with protozoa was 23.13%, where Babesia canis was the most prevalent (11.88%). • RBC counts, haemoglobin and PCV were significantly lower in infected dogs with higher eosinophilic counts.

Molecular detection of Babesia spp. in dogs in Germany (2007–2020) and identification of potential risk factors for infection

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background In Europe, canine babesiosis is most frequently caused by Babesia canis and Babesia vogeli, and occasionally by Babesia gibsoni.. In Germany, B. canis is recognized as endemic.

Estimated seroprevalence of Ehrlichia canis in dogs in a remote community in the Northern Territory, Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 1-2, Page 66-72, January-February 2026.
Background The emergence of Ehrlichia canis in northern Australia in 2020 has reshaped the landscape of tick‐borne diseases in dogs, particularly in rural and remote communities where the brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus linnaei) is endemic. Despite the rapid spread of ehrlichiosis and reported impacts on dog health, its prevalence remains poorly ...

Spatial Heterogeneity of Tick‐Borne Pathogens Outpaces Genetic Structuring in Anatolian Dermacentor reticulatus Populations

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Understanding how vector population structure influences pathogen circulation remains a major challenge in tick‐borne disease ecology, particularly in biogeographically transitional regions. Dermacentor reticulatus, a widespread Palearctic tick species and vector of multiple pathogens, provides a useful system to investigate this relationship in a ...

Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High‐Throughput Microfluidic Real‐Time PCR

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

Acute febrile illness is associated with Rickettsia spp infection in dogs

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Rickettsia conorii is transmitted by Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks and causes Mediterranean Spotted Fever (MSF) in humans. Although dogs are considered the natural host of the vector, the clinical and epidemiological significance of R ...

Serum Sialic Acid as a Biomarker of Inflammation and Infection: Insights From Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Serum sialic acid (SSA) levels, including total sialic acid (TSA), lipid‐bound sialic acid (LBSA), and protein‐bound sialic acid (PBSA), have been extensively studied as biomarkers of inflammation and infection across various species and diseases. In parasitemic sheep, elevated SSA levels likely reflect host–pathogen interactions and immune activation.
