Zoonotic Disease Transmission May Be Linked to Host Co‐Occurrence Network Topology

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1554, Issue 1, Page 110-120, December 2025.
A global analysis of zoonotic host co‐occurrence networks identified 22 networks from five continents (A) and 87 hosts from 16 orders of mostly birds but also mammals (B) as having a high potential for disease transmission. ABSTRACT Most human pathogens are zoonotic, transmitted from vertebrate hosts to humans.

Geographic Translocation of Bats: Known and Potential Problems

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
Natural, accidental, and intentional translocation of bats, both intra- and intercontinentally, has been documented. Some bats have been translocated while incubating infectious diseases, including rabies or related lyssavirus infections; others have ...

Bat trait, genetic and pathogen data from large-scale investigations of African fruit bats, Eidolon helvum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Bats, including African straw-coloured fruit bats (Eidolon helvum), have been highlighted as reservoirs of many recently emerged zoonotic viruses. This common, widespread and ecologically important species was the focus of longitudinal and continent-wide

Defining the risk of human exposure to Australian bat lyssavirus through potential non-bat animal infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Human infection with Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV) was first reported in November 1996, six months after the first identification of the virus in a flying fox in May 1996.

Causal Associations Between 4907 Circulating Proteins and Hyperlipidemia: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study Based on European Ancestry

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective This study employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the causal relationships between 4907 circulating proteins and hyperlipidemia, with the aim of identifying potential drug targets. Methods Instrumental variables were derived from genome‐wide association study (GWAS) data on 4907 circulating proteins ...

Mokola Virus in Domestic Mammals, South Africa

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
We recently identified 2 Mokola viruses from domestic mammals (a dog and a cat) in South Africa. These cases occurred 8 years after the last reported case of infection with this virus.

Citizen science and wildlife disease surveillance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Achieving effective wildlife disease surveillance is challenging. The incorporation of citizen science (CS) in wildlife health surveillance can be beneficial, particularly where resources are limited and cost-effectiveness is paramount.

Diverse hosts, diverse immune systems: Evolutionary variation in bat immunology

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1550, Issue 1, Page 151-172, August 2025.
Bats are recognized to have distinct immune systems from other vertebrates that may allow them to host virulent pathogens without showing disease. However, these flying mammals are also incredibly diverse, such that bats should not be expected to be immunologically homogenous.

Application of high-throughput sequencing to whole rabies viral genome characterisation and its use for phylogenetic re-evaluation of a raccoon strain incursion into the province of Ontario [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Raccoon rabies remains a serious public health problem throughout much of the eastern seaboard of North America due to the urban nature of the reservoir host and the many challenges inherent in multi-jurisdictional efforts to administer co-ordinated and ...
