Age‐Based Variations in the Gut Microbiome of the Shennongjia (Hubei) Golden Snub‐Nosed Monkey (Rhinopithecus roxellana hubeiensis)

BioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The gut microbiota represents a source of genetic and metabolic diversity of a complex polymicrobial ecosystem within its host. To investigate age‐based variations of the gut microbiota among Shennongjia golden snub‐nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus roxellana hubeiensis), we characterized the microbial species in fecal samples from 18 Shennongjia golden ...

Ancient <i>Borrelia</i> genomes document the evolutionary history of louse-borne relapsing fever. [PDF]

Science
Several bacterial pathogens have transitioned from tick-borne to louse-borne transmission, which often involves genome reduction and increasing virulence. However, the timing of such transitions remains unclear.

Whole-genome sequences of six <i>Borrelia recurrentis</i> strains obtained via PacBio sequencing. [PDF]

Microbiol Resour Announc
ABSTRACT Provided are whole-genome sequences of six Borrelia recurrentis strains that had been earlier isolated from louse-borne relapsing fever patients. The sequences of each genome presented here included one linear chromosome and 5 linear plasmids, whose average size was

Comparative Analysis of Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever Spirochaetes from Ethiopia and Nigeria

Pathogens, 2023
Despite increasing reports of tick-borne diseases in Africa, remarkably, reports of tick-borne relapsing fever (TBRF) in Nigeria are lacking. Ornithodoros savignyi from Nigeria have been reported with the relapsing fever Candidatus Borrelia kalaharica ...

Emerging bacterial infectious diseases/pathogens vectored by human lice

Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2023
Human lice have always been a major public health concern due to their vector capacity for louse-borne infectious diseases, like trench fever, louse-borne relapsing fever, and epidemic fever, which are caused by Bartonella quintana, Borrelia recurrentis,

The epidemiology and geographic distribution of relapsing fever borreliosis in West and North Africa, with a review of the Ornithodoros erraticus complex (Acari: Ixodida). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Relapsing fever is the most frequent bacterial disease in Africa. Four main vector / pathogen complexes are classically recognized, with the louse Pediculus humanus acting as vector for B. recurrentis and the soft ticks Ornithodoros sonrai, O.

Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of Pediculus Capitis Prevention and Control and Their Predictors among Schoolchildren in Woreta Town, Northwest Ethiopia, 2018: A School‐Based Cross‐Sectional Study

International Journal of Pediatrics, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background. Pediculus capitis is a human head lice infestation, a major public health issue that is most prevalent in resource‐limited countries globally. The current study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice of pediculus capitis prevention and control and their predictors among schoolchildren in North West Ethiopia. Methods.
