Modelling vector and host distributions to inform potential disease risk: A case study of West Nile virus in the United Kingdom

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 842-862, December 2025.
Correlative modelling approaches can be used successfully to predict the distribution of vectors and hosts involved in vector‐borne diseases of concern. For West Nile virus in the United Kingdom, host distributions are unlikely to be a significant factor influencing change. Vector distributions and urbanisation will drive increasing risk. Projecting to

Hyperfibrinolysis in Cats: A Retrospective Case–Control Study of 154 Cats

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Hyperfibrinolysis (HFL) has not been well described in cats. Hypothesis/Objectives Identify risk factors associated with HFL in cats and evaluate its association with survival. Our hypotheses were that cats share similar conditions as dogs and humans with HFL and that it is associated with a worse prognosis.
