Current Distribution of Selected Vector‐borne Diseases in Domestic Dogs From Bucharest, Romania

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
Serological testing of 317 dogs in Bucharest (2020‐2024) revealed an overall Canine vector‐borne diseases (CVBD) seroprevalence of 8.8%, with Dirofilaria immitis (12.62%) being the most common. Shelter and older dogs had higher infection rates. Climate change and vector expansion may influence pathogen spread, underscoring the need for enhanced ...

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Zoonotic Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Ixodes ricinus Complex (Acari: Ixodidae) From Urban and Peri‐Urban Areas of Kosovo

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 174-183, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Ixodes ricinus, the castor bean tick, is the most prevalent tick species in Europe. It favours habitats such as shrubs, deciduous and mixed forests, but can also be found in urban environments. Due to its high vector competence, it is of enormous veterinary as well as medical importance, transmitting tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE ...

First Evidence of Hepatozoon canis in Dogs With Clinical Signs in the North of Lima, Peru

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study was aimed at detecting the presence of Hepatozoon canis in dogs with clinical signs in the northern area of Lima, Peru. Peripheral blood samples (n = 152) were collected from dogs with hematological alterations and clinical signs suggestive of hemoparasitosis. PCR was used to amplify the 18S ribosomal RNA gene of Hepatozoon sp.
