Investigation of the Blood Microbiome in Horses With Fever of Unknown Origin
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2025.ABSTRACT Background Fever of unknown origin (FUO) without a respiratory component is a frequent clinical presentation in horses. Multiple pathogens, both tick‐borne and enteric, can be involved as etiologic agents. An additional potential mechanism is intestinal barrier dysfunction.

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 9-22, February 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction Lyme disease (LD) is caused by infection with the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bb) through the bite of an infected Ixodes spp. tick. LD has emerged as a public and animal health issue in Canada, with human incidence increasing in part due to the expansion of Ixodes scapularis ticks and their vertebrate hosts.

Individual variation underlies large‐scale patterns: Host conditions and behavior affect parasitism
Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 1, January 2025.Abstract Identifying the factors that affect host–parasite interactions is essential for understanding the ecology and dynamics of vector‐borne diseases and may be an important component of predicting human disease risk. Characteristics of hosts themselves (e.g., body condition, host behavior, immune defenses) may affect the likelihood of parasitism ...

Human pathogens associated with the blacklegged tick Ixodes scapularis: a systematic review
Parasites & Vectors, 2016 The blacklegged tick Ixodes scapularis transmits Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu stricto) in eastern North America; however, the agent of Lyme disease is not the sole pathogen harbored by the blacklegged tick. The blacklegged tick is expanding its range into areas of southern Canada such as Ontario, an area where exposure to blacklegged tick bites and tick-
