Landscape structure affects the prevalence and distribution of a tick-borne zoonotic pathogen [PDF]
Background Landscape structure can affect pathogen prevalence and persistence with consequences for human and animal health. Few studies have examined how reservoir host species traits may interact with landscape structure to alter pathogen communities ...

Epidemiological features of Ixodic tick-borne Borreliosis in children in the Ulyanovsk region
This paper presents materials on the incidence of children with ixodiс tick-borne borreliosis in the Ulyanovsk region for the period 1996—2017.28 cases of tick-borne borreliosis among children were recorded. Tick suction in April-May was observed in 6 (21.4%) children, in June—August — in 12 (42.9%), in September—November — in 10 (35.7%).

Habitat properties are key drivers of Borrelia burgdorferi (s.l.) prevalence in Ixodes ricinus populations of deciduous forest fragments [PDF]
Background: The tick Ixodes ricinus has considerable impact on the health of humans and other terrestrial animals because it transmits several tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) such as B. burgdorferi (sensu lato), which causes Lyme borreliosis (LB).

Preliminary Evaluation of Tick Protein Extracts and Recombinant Ferritin 2 as Anti-tick Vaccines Targeting Ixodes ricinus in Cattle [PDF]
Anti-tick vaccines have the potential to be an environmentally friendly and cost-effective option for tick control. In vaccine development, the identification of efficacious antigens forms the major bottleneck. In this study, the efficacy of immunization

Tick‐Borne Viruses in Finland: Public Health Risks, Interventions and Research Insights
ABSTRACT Ticks are obligate haematophagous arthropods that serve as vectors for diverse pathogens, including viruses, bacteria and protozoa. In Finland, the two primary tick species, Ixodes ricinus (castor bean tick) and Ixodes persulcatus (taiga tick), have been identified in the transmission of tick‐borne viruses (TBV), notably tick‐borne ...

[Ixodes tick-borne borreliosis with erythema nodosum].
Ixodes tick-borne borrelioses (ITBB) is a group of natural-and-focal transmissible infections caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and characterized by multiple organ dysfunctions and a chronic progressive course. The pathognomonic marker of an acute period of the disease is migratory erythema at the site of tick suction.

Rapid Northward Expansion of the Blacklegged Tick, Ixodes scapularis, in Response to Climate Change
The blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, can transmit human diseases such as Lyme disease and is exposing new human populations to this risk due to its rapid expansion into Canada. We used community science data (eTick and iNaturalist) to understand the environmental factors responsible for the distribution of I.
