Temporal Changes in Tick‐Borne Pathogen Prevalence in Questing Ixodes ricinus Across Different Habitats in the North‐Eastern Italian Alps

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 6, December 2024.
This study examines the prevalence of tick‐borne pathogens in Ixodes ricinus ticks in the north‐eastern Italian Alps. It found an average infection rate of 27.1%, with 11 zoonotic pathogens identified, showing varying infection rates across different years and habitats.

An assessment of equine veterinarian knowledge and perceptions of ticks and tick‐borne diseases in the United States to inform continuing education needs

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 527-535, October 2024.
Summary Background Ticks can harm horses and transmit diseases, making them a growing concern for owners and veterinarians. Veterinarians play a crucial role in providing advice on tick prevention and control. Yet, no research has examined their perspectives on equine ticks and tick‐borne disease (TBD).

Temporal pattern of questing tick Ixodes ricinus density at differing elevations in the coastal region of western Norway [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Climate change can affect the activity and distribution of species, including pathogens and parasites. The densities and distribution range of the sheep tick (Ixodes ricinus) and it’s transmitted pathogens appears to be increasing.

Unprecedented genetic variability of PFam54 paralogs among Eurasian Lyme borreliosis‐causing spirochetes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
Utilizing whole genome sequencing data for 141 Eurasian distributed Borrelia isolates, we show that the PFam54 gene array is highly variable among and within Borrelia species, including the absence of genes of known function during infection. Further analysis highlighted though that understudied paralogs most likely are important to completing the ...

The role of P450 enzymes in malaria and other vector‐borne infectious diseases

BioFactors, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 16-32, January/February 2024.
We review published research data on P450 enzymes from all players in vector‐borne infections, that is, pathogens, vectors, and hosts, regarding the potential role of CYPs in disease. We discuss strategies on how to exploit cytochromes P450 in vector‐borne disease control.

Guidelines for diagnosis and treatment in neurology – Lyme neuroborreliosis

GMS German Medical Science, 2020
Lyme borreliosis is the most common tick-borne infectious disease in Europe. A neurological manifestation occurs in 3–15% of infections and can manifest as polyradiculitis, meningitis and (rarely) encephalomyelitis.This S3 guideline is directed at ...

Epidemiological Manifestations Ixodid Tick-Borne Borreliosies in Irkutsk and in other Parts of the Eurasian Area

Epidemiology and Vaccinal Prevention, 2019
Background. Ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (ITBB) is the most prevalent in Northern Hemisphere group of transmissible Spirochaetal infections, ecologically connected with Ixodid ticks. ITBB are etiologically associated with several agents, which determine epidemiological and clinical manifestations of these diseases.
