T Follicular Helper Cell Immune Signatures Associated With Disease Severity in Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is marked by high case fatality and profound antiviral immune dysregulation, yet the clinical implications of changes in circulating T follicular helper (Tfh) cells remain unclear. Methods We enrolled 79 patients with RT‐PCR‐confirmed SFTSV infection who were hospitalized from May to October

A One Health Assessment of Tick and Tick‐Borne Pathogen Diversity and Zoonotic Risk in Hubei Province, Central China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) threaten livestock productivity and public health worldwide, and climate–land‐use change is expanding vector habitats, elevating tick‐borne disease risk. However, TBP diversity and risk in Hubei Province, central China, remain insufficiently defined within a One Health framework.

Recent Advances in Humoral Immunity Dysregulation in Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus (SFTSV) Infection: A Systematic Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) infection causes profound dysregulation of humoral immunity, leading to immunopathology and impaired viral clearance. However, the mechanisms underlying B cell dysfunction and inadequate antibody responses remain poorly defined.

Multiple Introductions of the Asian Longhorned Tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis) to the United States Revealed Using Mitogenomics

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
The Asian longhorned tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis, is a significant global vector and threat to both agriculture and public health. Formerly known only in the Eastern Hemisphere, parthenogenetic ALT have been reported from 20 states across the eastern and central US, with a pattern of expansion suggestive of multiple distinct populations.

Current Status of Vector-Borne Diseases in Croatia: Challenges and Future Prospects

, 2023
Different vector-borne pathogens are present or have (re-)emerged in Croatia. Flaviviruses tick-borne encephalitis (TBEV), West Nile (WNV), and Usutu (USUV) are widely distributed in continental regions, while Toscana virus (TOSV) and sandfly fever ...

Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Plays Important Role in Predicting In‐Hospital Mortality in Patients With Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome: A Multi‐Center Observational Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) has been proposed as a reliable indicator of nutritional state and, when decreased, is closely associated with the severity and mortality risk of infectious disease. The current study retrospectively recruited patients who were admitted for SFTS from January 1, 2011 to January 1, 2024 at six medical ...

Metatranscriptomic Analysis Uncovers RNA Virus Diversity in Ticks From the China–Russia–North Korea Border Region

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks serve as critical viral vectors, and border regions, acting as convergence zones of complex ecosystems, provide diverse habitats for ticks and their hosts, thereby underscoring the need to investigate the tick‐borne virome composition in such areas. In this study, metatranscriptomic analysis of five tick species, namely Haemaphysalis longicornis,

Metagenomic Analysis of Tick‐Borne Viruses Associated With Hyalomma asiaticum From Different Hosts in the Surrounding Areas of Urumqi, China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Tick‐borne viruses (TBVs) represent a serious risk to global public and animal health. Despite the remarkable species diversity of ticks documented in Urumqi and its adjacent regions of China, scientific investigations into TBVs in this ecologically significant area have been strikingly scarce.
