Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Rythmes d'activité chez six espèces de Muridés du Sénégal appartenant aux genres Mastomys, Arvicanthis, Myomys et Dasymys [PDF]

, 1990
Nous avons étudié en cages individuelles les rythmes d'activité de 6 espèces de Muridés sympatriques au Sénégal. La variabilité individuelle est très forte, et de ce fait, nous n'avons pas observé de différences significatives pour l'activité totale ...

Is What Comes out the Same as What Goes in? A Preliminary Investigation of the Isotopic Impacts of Digestion by Red‐Tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) and Eurasian Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Isotope analysis of predator feces and consumed prey remains can be used to non‐invasively track diet and reconstruct past environment and climate conditions. However, one must account for the isotopic difference between diet and feces, as well as the possible influence of digestion on consumed prey tissues.

Protective vaccination against papillomavirus-induced skin tumors under immunocompetent and immunosuppressive conditions: a preclinical study using a natural outbred animal model.

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Certain cutaneous human papillomaviruses (HPVs), which are ubiquitous and acquired early during childhood, can cause a variety of skin tumors and are likely involved in the development of non-melanoma skin cancer, especially in immunosuppressed patients.

Detection and Determinants of Leptospira Infection in Rodents, Cattle, and Humans in Muheza District, Tanzania: A Call for One Health Approach

Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2025.
This study showed co‐agglutination among rodents, cattle, and humans with serovars Hebdomadis, Sokoine, and Grippotyphosa. This study shed light on pathogenic serovars circulating among humans, rodents, and cattle and factors associated with seropositivity.

Zoonotic Host Richness in the Global Wildland–Urban Interface

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 2, February 2025.
In the wildland–urban interface (WUI), where human settlements abut or intermix with wildlands, people may encounter animals that host zoonotic pathogens, which can spillover to cause human disease. We map the distribution of zoonotic hosts in the global WUI and show that large populations in tropical low–middle‐income countries (LMICs) are potentially

Variation in Relative Abundance of Small Mammal Species Caught in Two Different Ecosystems and Implicated in the Spread of Emerging Pathogens in Mali

Applied Sciences
Background: Small rodents and insectivores are potential reservoirs of many pathogens transmissible to humans, such as bacteria, parasites and viruses responsible for epidemics in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in West Africa.

The Bioeconomics of Controlling an African Rodent Pest Species [PDF]

The paper treats the economy of controlling an African pest rodent, the multimammate rat, causing major damage in maize production. An ecological population model is presented and used as a basis for the economic analyses carried out at the village level
