Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

An international study on emerging arboviral infections and blood safety
Abstract Background Emerging and re‐emerging arboviral infections are a risk to blood safety. We conducted an international survey on how blood establishments respond to current and future arbovirus threats. Study Design and Methods A questionnaire on arbovirus donor deferral strategies, pathogen reduction, and donation screening was distributed to ...

Unusual MRI features in a case of presumed canine tick‐borne meningoencephalomyelitis
Abstract A 7‐year‐old, standard, wire‐haired dachshund presented with quickly progressive multifocal central nervous system signs, which localised to the brainstem and cervical myelopathy, including reduced cervical and thoracic limb muscle tone and withdrawal reflexes. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral, approximately symmetric, T2‐weighted

Pharmacy‐Based Immunization Delivery: A Comprehensive History and Current Challenges
ABSTRACT Pharmacists and their teams have a long history of involvement with vaccines. This paper describes the contributions of pharmacy‐based immunization delivery in the United States from the 1800's to date. Early activities centered around storage and distribution of antitoxins and vaccines. From the 1950s through the early 1990s, pharmacists were

Reverse Genetics of Orthoflaviviruses: Strategies for Constructing Functional or Infectious cDNA
ABSTRACT Reverse genetics (RG) systems have transformed RNA virus research by enabling the recovery of recombinant viruses entirely from cloned cDNA. These platforms allow precise, hypothesis‐driven manipulation of viral genomes and support systematic phenotypic analyses in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract: Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is an infectious disease that presents a growing public health concern in Europe. This systematic literature review explores the effects of TBE on the cognitive functions of children and adolescents. Most research findings indicate that, after TBE, children and adolescents may have impairments in executive ...

Knowledge mapping of risk mitigation measures against vector‐borne diseases
Abstract A comprehensive synthesis of current evidence on surveillance, prevention and control measures for 25 selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) affecting animals in the EU is presented here. The assessment integrates evidence from systematic literature reviews, modelling studies, field investigations and expert judgement.
