Extraneurological Presentations of Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus: A Rare Case of TBEV‐Associated Myocarditis With Fever and Bicytopenia and a Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose Tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE), a zoonotic disease caused by the tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), usually manifests with a biphasic course with neurological involvement during its second phase. Extraneurological manifestations are rare but clinically relevant.

Exploitation of Host Cell Biology and Evasion of Immunity by Francisella Tularensis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Francisella tularensis is an intracellular bacterium that infects humans and many small mammals. During infection, F. tularensis replicates predominantly in macrophages but also proliferate in other cell types. Entry into host cells is mediate by various

Lethal Case of Bourbon Virus Leading to Shock and ECMO Utilization

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
We present a lethal case of Bourbon virus infection in a 63‐year‐old Caucasian, diabetic male who was previously in good health. The patient had spent time in the wooded areas of Bourbon County, Kansas, and removed three ticks from his body 5 days prior to presentation.

Seasonal and Regional Dynamics of Streptococcus agalactiae and Francisella orientalis Infections in Brazilian Tilapia: A Six‐Year National Study

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Streptococcus agalactiae and Francisella orientalis are major bacterial pathogens affecting Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) worldwide, leading to substantial economic losses in aquaculture. This study investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of these pathogens in tilapia production units of Brazil and identified risk factors associated ...

Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High‐Throughput Microfluidic Real‐Time PCR

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

Putting the Jigsaw Together - A Brief Insight Into the Tularemia

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2015
Tularemia is a debilitating febrile and potentially fatal zoonotic disease of humans and other vertebrates caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Francisella tularensis. The natural reservoirs are small rodents, hares, and possibly amoebas in water.
