Lyme Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
When asked to think of headlining diseases, many would choose bubonic plague, smallpox, Ebola, or leprosy. However, Lyme disease makes up for more confirmed diagnostic cases in the United States than all the aforementioned diseases combined.

Yersinia pestis and Plague: some knowns and unknowns.

open access: yesZoonoses, 2023
Since its first identification in 1894 during the third pandemic in Hong Kong, there has been significant progress of understanding the lifestyle of Yersinia pestis, the pathogen that is responsible for plague.

Bacterial profiling of White Plague Disease across corals and oceans indicates a conserved and distinct disease microbiome

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2014
Coral diseases are characterized by microbial community shifts in coral mucus and tissue, but causes and consequences of these changes are vaguely understood due to the complexity and dynamics of coral‐associated bacteria.

Modeling the Justinianic Plague: Comparing hypothesized transmission routes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The Justinianic Plague, the first part of the earliest of the three plague pandemics, has minimal historical documentation. Based on the limited primary sources, historians have argued both for and against the "maximalist narrative" of plague, i.e.

mRNA vaccines in disease prevention and treatment

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
mRNA vaccines have emerged as highly effective strategies in the prophylaxis and treatment of diseases, thanks largely although not totally to their extraordinary performance in recent years against the worldwide plague COVID-19.

Bacterial profiling of White Plague Disease in a comparative coral species framework

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2013
Coral reefs are threatened throughout the world. A major factor contributing to their decline is outbreaks and propagation of coral diseases. Due to the complexity of coral-associated microbe communities, little is understood in terms of disease agents ...

Performance of plague rapid diagnostic test compared to bacteriology: a retrospective analysis of the data collected in Madagascar

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Plague is a highly fatal disease caused by Yersinia pestis. Late diagnosis hampers disease outcome and effectiveness of control measures, induces death and disease spread.

The role of louse-transmitted diseases in historical plague pandemics

open access: yesThe Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2021
The rodent-murine ectoparasite-human model of plague transmission does not correspond with historical details around plague pandemics in Europe. New analysis of ancient genomes reveal that Yersinia pestis was unable to be transmitted by rat fleas until around 4000 Before Present, which challenges the rodent-murine ectoparasite-human model of plague ...
