Large-Scale Molecular Epidemiological Survey of Blastocystis sp. among Herbivores in Egypt and Assessment of Potential Zoonotic Risk

Microorganisms
Given the proven zoonotic potential of the intestinal protozoan Blastocystis sp., a fast-growing number of surveys are being conducted to identify potential animal reservoirs for transmission of the parasite.

Zoonotic Transmission Assessment of Cryptosporidium spp. in Close Human–Pet Environments in Yunnan Province, China

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study revealed Cryptosporidium infection rates of 11.1% in dogs and 10.4% in cats in human–pet environments in Yunnan, China. Molecular evidence documents one case of pet‐to‐human transmission involving an immunocompromised elderly owner, suggesting vulnerable individuals face higher infection risks despite minimal transmission to immunocompetent ...

Seroprevalence of Neospora caninum in Camelids of the New and Old World: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Based on the present systematic review and meta‑analysis, the pooled prevalence of N. caninum in camelids was 10% (95% CI: 7%–12%) with significant heterogeneity (I2 = 93.75%, p < 0.0001). The highest rate was detected in Old World camelids, 14% (95% CI: 10%–19%), indicating that this group is more susceptible to N. caninum exposure.

Eimeria spp. in Cattle: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This global synthesis, based on 203 studies across 55 countries, revealed a substantial worldwide burden of Eimeria spp. infection in cattle (33.6%), with calves and females showing disproportionately higher infection frequencies and E. bovis and E. zuernii identified as the predominant pathogenic species.

The Dairy Ruminant Gut Microbiome: Profile, Responsiveness to Seasonality and Impact on Milk Quality

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
The dairy ruminant gut microbiome that is shaped by host and diet is affected by seasonality and rearing. These factors can impact dairy productivity and milk quality potentially through the gut microbiota. ABSTRACT The gut microbiome (GM) and particularly the rumen microbiome (RM) affect the ruminant health and they are associated with milk quality ...

Agrarian counterpoint

American Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 171-182, May 2026.
Abstract In Colombia's northeastern borderlands, agrarian economies shape how disease risk and stigma are understood and managed. As shown in ethnographic fieldwork in and around the Catatumbo region, cutaneous leishmaniasis—a sandfly‐transmitted disease that produces chronic skin lesions—appears in two radically different guises across adjacent ...

European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy (ENOVAT) 2025 guidelines for surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis in dogs and cats

Journal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 67, Issue 5, Page 383-405, May 2026.
Surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis involves the administration of antimicrobials to reduce the risk of a surgical site infection and represents a significant proportion of all antimicrobial use in cats and dogs. This evidence‐based, European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy guideline provides recommendations for both peri ...
