Decoding neurodevelopment risks of exposures to intoxication, infection, and trauma during pregnancy

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract The maternal environment plays a pivotal role in fetal neurodevelopment, but adverse conditions during pregnancy may disrupt key developmental processes. Conditions such as intoxication, infection, or trauma during pregnancy have been associated with impaired fetal oxygenation, altered immune signaling, and disrupted placental function, which ...

Household‐Based Epidemiology of Bovine Ixodid Tick Infestation and Associated Risk Factors in Endamehoni, Raya‐Azebo and Enderta Districts, Tigray Region, Northern Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Tick infestation affected 41.5% of cattle in Tigray, with Rhipicephalus species predominating. Infestation was strongly associated with poor housing, poor body condition and management practices, whereas limited awareness of tick‐borne diseases highlights the need for targeted control strategies informed by species‐specific attachment‐site preferences.

Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Zoonotic Transmission Potential of Cryptosporidium spp. in Snakes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study provides the first global systematic synthesis of Cryptosporidium spp. infection in snakes. A pooled prevalence of 12.6% was identified, with higher occurrence in captive‐associated populations than in wild snakes. Eight Cryptosporidium species, including multiple zoonotic taxa, were reported, underscoring the potential role of snakes within

Assessment of the Performance of Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay for Chagas Disease in Dogs Using a Reference Panel of Four Chimeric Proteins

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
We evaluated the performance of an indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) assay for detecting anti‐Trypanosoma cruzi IgG in dogs using four chimeric IBMP antigens and latent class analysis. The IIF assay showed suboptimal sensitivity and overall accuracy compared to ELISA and LCA‐based methods.
