Role of mustelids in the life-cycle of ixodid ticks and transmission cycles of four tick-borne pathogens

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Elucidating which wildlife species significantly contribute to the maintenance of Ixodes ricinus populations and the enzootic cycles of the pathogens they transmit is imperative in understanding the driving forces behind the emergence of tick ...

New horizons in the pharmacological management of venous thromboembolism

open access: yesHemaSphere, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Many patients suffer from venous thromboembolism (VTE) and its consequences. Despite substantial advancements with the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), patients and clinicians still encounter challenges in the acute and long‐term management of VTE, such as recurrent events, anticoagulant‐related bleeding complications, and ...

Sufficient reproduction numbers to prevent recurrent epidemics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1186-1200, June 2025.
Abstract Current practice in the design and evaluation of control measures in disease ecology and epidemiology, including vaccination, is largely based on reproduction numbers (RNs), which represent prognostic indices of long‐term disease transmission, both in naïve populations (basic RN) and in the presence of prior exposure or infection containment ...

Anaplasma phagocytophilum prevalence in ticks and rodents in an urban and natural habitat in South-Western Slovakia

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Ixodes ricinus is the principal vector of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the ethiological agent of granulocytic anaplasmosis in Europe. Anaplasmosis is an emerging zoonotic disease with a natural enzootic cycle. The reservoir competence of rodents

Combined enhancement of ascorbic acid, β‐carotene and zeaxanthin in gene‐edited lettuce

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1954-1967, June 2025.
Summary Lettuce is widely grown and consumed but provides lower nutritional value compared to other leafy greens, particularly in the essential vitamins A and C. To address this, major control points in carotenoid and ascorbic acid (AsA) production were targeted using a viral‐based CRISPR/Cas9 system in the commercial lettuce cultivar ‘Noga’.

Occupancy, spatial variance, and the abundance of species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A notable and consistent ecological observation known for a long time is that spatial variance in the abundance of a species increases with its mean abundance and that this relationship typically conforms well to a simple power law (Taylor 1961 ...

Potentials of castor seed meal (Ricinus communis L.) as feed ingredient for Oreochromis niloticus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The potentials of castor seed (Ricinus communis) meal as feed ingredient for Oreochromis niloticus was determined by using boiled seeds to prepare five diets which were fed to the fish species.

Toxic plants and companion animals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Poisoning by substances of plant origin is unusual in both dogs and cats, yet it is possible; as many veterinarians do not know which plants can contain toxic active principles, the possibility of intoxication by ornamental plants commonly used to ...

Delineating Anaplasma phagocytophilum Ecotypes in Coexisting, Discrete Enzootic Cycles

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
The emerging tick-borne pathogen Anaplasma phagocytophilum is under increasing scrutiny for the existence of subpopulations that are adapted to different natural cycles. Here, we characterized the diversity of A.
