Reframing Disease Reservoirs

open access: yesCalenda, 2021
The idea of disease reservoirs – that particular animals, people, or environments harbour or distribute disease – has profoundly shaped human relationships to nature. The concept has been epistemologically fraught, taking on different meanings amongst different groups of people in different periods.

Identifying Reservoirs of Infection: A Conceptual and Practical Challenge

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
Many infectious agents, especially those that cause emerging diseases, infect more than one host species. Managing reservoirs of multihost pathogens often plays a crucial role in effective disease control. However, reservoirs remain variously and loosely

Reservoir interactions and disease emergence [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical Population Biology, 2007
Animal populations act as reservoirs for emerging diseases. In order for transmission to be self-sustaining, a pathogen must have a basic reproduction number R0>1. Following a founding transmission event from an animal reservoir to humans, a pathogen has not yet adapted to its new environment and is likely to have an ...

Experience with ustekinumab in reservoir Crohn's disease

open access: yesRevista Española de Enfermedades Digestivas, 2021
Crohn's disease of the reservoir is a pathology of difficult diagnosis and complex approach due to the scarce documented evidence on it. Recently, studies have been published on the treatment strategies available for this entity. Based on the above, we have analyzed the experience of our center in the treatment of reservoir Crohn's disease with one of ...

The pathogenesis of zoonotic viral infections: Lessons learned by studying reservoir hosts

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Zoonotic viral infections that cause severe disease or even death in some people may be asymptomatic or mild in reservoir hosts. Comparison of the pathogenesis of these two host categories may potentially explain the difference in disease.

Rodent reservoirs of future zoonotic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
Significance Forecasting reservoirs of zoonotic disease is a pressing public health priority. We apply machine learning to datasets describing the biological, ecological, and life history traits of rodents, which collectively carry a disproportionate number of zoonotic pathogens.
