Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets
ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.

Risk Factors for Tick‐Borne Diseases in Germany: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne diseases (TBDs) have proliferated in Germany. The two most prevalent TBDs, Lyme‐borreliosis and tick‐borne encephalitis, can present with nonspecific symptoms and lead to serious neurological complications. To date, a review synthesising the risk factors of acquiring a TBD in Germany is missing.

A TLR8 Variant Identified From Whole Exome Sequencing as a Sepsis‐Prone Mutation
Whole‐exome sequencing of sepsis patients identified a recurrent high‐impact TLR8 rs3764880 variant enriched in bacterial sepsis. Single‐cell transcriptomics localized elevated TLR8 expression to non‐classical monocytes, while bulk RNA‐seq and functional assays demonstrated enhanced IFN‐β responses following TLR8 stimulation.
