The Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis) occupies a wide range of natural and human‐modified habitats, yet research effort across its range is highly uneven. Our systematic review of 173 studies synthesises patterns in population trends, habitat use, breeding ecology, threats and ecosystem services, revealing strong geographic and thematic biases in available ...

Offshore wind energy is rapidly expanding in the North sea foraging grounds of internationally important seabirds, with predicted impacts on their survival and productivity. Since reduction to breeding colony disturbance is a proposed compensation measure for these impacts, we used a seven‐year dataset of > 1400 black‐legged kittiwake nests at an ...

Q Fever in Africa: A Systematic Review of Prevalence, Zoonotic Potential and Disease Burden
Q fever is widespread across Africa, with livestock as the primary source of human infections. Although some prevalence data exist, its economic burden is still lacking. The findings underscore the need for a One Health approach that integrates surveillance, economic assessment and control to reduce the disease burden.

CLIMATE CHANGE INFLUENCES ON THE RISK OF AVIAN INFLUENZA OUTBREAKS AND ASSOCIATED ECONOMIC LOSS [PDF]
This paper examines the effect that climate has on Avian Influenza outbreak probability. The statistical analysis shows across a broad region the probability of an outbreak declines by 0.22% when the temperature rises 1 Celsius degree and increases by 0 ...

Aggregation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in a Human H5N1 Clade 2.2 Hemagglutinin [PDF]
The evolution of H5N1 has attracted significant interest 1-4 due to linkages with avian 5,6 and human infections 7,8. The basic tenets of influenza genetics 9 attribute genetic drift to replication errors caused by a polymerase complex that lacks a ...

A 70‐year‐old man with interstitial lung disease developed a fever and facial rash, with new bilateral ground‐glass opacities on high‐resolution computed tomography. Parvovirus B19 infection was confirmed, suggesting viral infection as a trigger of acute exacerbation through direct and immune‐mediated mechanisms.
