Reduced incidence of tick paralysis cases in dogs and cats at two emergency clinics in South‐East Queensland since 2015: new generation prophylactics as possible explanatory variables

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 101, Issue 9, Page 356-365, September 2023., 2023
Introduction This study aimed to determine the incidence of canine and feline tick paralysis cases presenting to two veterinary emergency hospitals before and after the introduction of new generation prophylactic acaricides. Methods This was a retrospective study, investigating the number of tick paralysis cases presenting to two emergency and critical

An invasive human commensal and a native marsupial maintain tick populations at the urban fringe

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 460-471, September 2023., 2023
Long‐nosed bandicoots hosted more ticks of all life stages than other small mammals in urban areas of Sydney, Australia. Introduced black rats were more abundant at most sites and therefore important in hosting larval and nymphal ticks and could be managed to control ticks.

The abundance and geographic distributions of two species of ticks in South Australia: Bundey Bore revisited

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 563-584, May 2023., 2023
We investigated the effects of climate on the abundance and the geographic distribution of ticks at Bundey Bore Station. We found that climate and various aspects of the abundance of ticks and their lizard host accounted for a substantial amount of the variation in the abundance and the geographic distribution of the two species of ticks.

Mapping and monitoring tick (Acari, Ixodida) distribution, seasonality, and host associations in the United Kingdom between 2017 and 2020

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 152-163, March 2023., 2023
The risk of tick‐borne disease is linked to the distribution, seasonal activity and host associations of vector species, all of which can be informed by surveillance and citizen science The Tick Surveillance Scheme (established since 2005) in the United Kingdom monitors distribution changes in Ixodes ricinus and other native or imported vector species ...

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...

EAACI Molecular Allergology User's Guide 2.0

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 34, Issue S28, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Since the discovery of immunoglobulin E (IgE) as a mediator of allergic diseases in 1967, our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms of IgE‐mediated allergies has remarkably increased. In addition to understanding the immune response and clinical symptoms, allergy diagnosis and management depend strongly on the precise identification of ...
