Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1779-1792, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

‘Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis’ in Europe

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, 2018
‘Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis’ is an uncultured emerging bacterium that is provisionally included in the family Anaplasmataceae. In Europe, it is transmitted by Ixodes ricinus ticks. Rodents are the reservoirs.

Unusual MRI features in a case of presumed canine tick‐borne meningoencephalomyelitis

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
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

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
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.

From Infection to Anxiety: A Sequential Model Linking Latent Toxoplasmosis to Psychological Distress via Health and Stress

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Psychology, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 1026-1043, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying the drivers of chronic stress is crucial for understanding its impact on mental health. Latent toxoplasmosis, a widespread parasitic infection, has been linked to various psychological changes. The Stress‐Coping Hypothesis proposes that at least some of these changes are consequences of chronic stress arising from the infection's ...

Anaphylactic transfusion reaction to group B platelets related to alpha‐gal syndrome: A case report

open access: yesTransfusion, Volume 66, Issue 8, Page 1690-1693, August 2026.
Abstract Background Alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS), a distinct form of IgE‐mediated hypersensitivity to the carbohydrate galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐Gal), typically occurs after repeated tick bites and leads to allergic reactions after ingestion of mammalian meat.

Search for blood or water is influenced by Borrelia burgdorferi in Ixodes ricinus

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
An increasing number of studies suggest that vector-borne parasites are able to alter phenotypic traits in their arthropod vectors so that microorganism transmission is enhanced.

Mapping Zoonotic Risk With a Biogeographic Perspective on Transmission Cycles

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim When mapping the transmission risk of zoonotic diseases, the way vectors and wild carrier hosts are integrated into the modelling process has relevant impacts on the final output. The wide diversity of zoonotic cycles entails that a single methodological approach may be insufficient to cover the influence of vectors and wild carrier hosts ...
