Views of Health Professionals on the Contribution of Climate Change to the Transmission of Lassa Fever in Nigeria and the Implications for Risk Communication

open access: yesAdvances in Public Health, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lassa fever is an acute viral haemorrhagic illness caused by the Lassa virus and is mainly spread through direct and indirect human–rodent interaction. In Nigeria, Lassa fever outbreaks are becoming more frequent, and studies suggest that changes in climatic and ecological conditions will exacerbate these trends. It is crucial that health professionals

Missed Opportunities for Timely Diagnosis and Effective Therapeutic Management of Prolonged Fever: A Case Study of Confirmed Lassa Fever in N’Zérékoré, Guinea, 2022

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Lassa fever is a potentially fatal viral hemorrhagic disease caused by a ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus of the Arenaviridae family, endemic in West Africa. It is highly virulent and contagious in several countries, with a nonspecific clinical presentation that poses a major public health challenge.

Fractional‐Order Mathematical Modeling of Lassa Hemorrhagic Fever in Pregnant Women Under the Caputo Operator

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study examines an etiological hypothesis that is closely related to the complexity of Lassa hemorrhagic fever (LHF), a disease that affects pregnant African women. The abovementioned disease that affects expecting mothers initially appeared in Africa and has negative consequences.

A Scoping Review of Machine Learning Applications Across Epidemiological Stages of Zoonotic Disease

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Emerging zoonotic diseases represent a significant threat to global health. While machine learning (ML) holds promise for their management, a comprehensive understanding of how these technologies are applied across the entire animal‐to‐human transmission pathway is lacking.

Decomposition Dynamics of an Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus morio) Carcass in a Tropical Forest: Implications for Conservation Practices

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We documented the complete decomposition process of a wild Bornean orangutan carcass in a lowland dipterocarp forest in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. This represents the first detailed observation of great ape decomposition in Borneo. Our study provides a rare insight into the often‐overlooked process of carcass breakdown and decomposition in tropical ...

Partitioning Social and Spatial Drivers of Infection Risk

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Contact rates drive disease spread, yet are often oversimplified as uniform across individuals. Using data on Mastomys natalensis, we show that exposure to Morogoro virus is linked to spatial overlap with infected conspecifics, but not overall overlap, and that direct contact occurs with only a few individuals despite broad home range overlap ...
