New Approaches in Taxonomy Representatives of Rickettsiales Order

Эпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика, 2016
Systematics and nomenclature of representatives Rickettsiales order has always been based on a limited number of available phenotypic characteristics, due to their obligate intracellular localization.

From Data to Knowledge to Wisdom: Lessons Learned From the Vancouver Rat Project

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A synthesis of 15 years of research conducted by the Vancouver Rat Project revealed that: (1) Pathogen ecology within rat colonies is the result of complex interactions among rats, pathogens, and vectors. (2) Local and global population structures influence rat and pathogen ecology.

Typhus Group Rickettsiosis, Brazilian Amazon

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Rickettsia rickettsii infection is the only rickettsiosis included in the list of reportable diseases in Brazil, where typhus group rickettsioses, mainly murine typhus, have been underreported.

Drivers of Host–Pathogen Community Assemblages in European Forests and Urban Green Spaces

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite advances in understanding infectious diseases, the persistence and re‐emergence of wildlife pathogens continue to raise public and veterinary health concerns. This study investigates the relationship between biodiversity and rodent‐borne diseases in Europe, focusing on habitat alterations and their impact on rodent diversity.

Urban Environments Impact Parasite Diversity and an Antipredator Response in an Amphibian Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Urbanization reshapes parasite–host interactions in the amphibian Pelophylax perezi, increasing blood parasite diversity and Lankesterella loads under higher anthropogenic pressure. Urban frogs also show longer flight initiation distances and tibiofibulae, indicating altered antipredator strategies.

Ecological considerations for reintroducing Chinook salmon upstream of Shasta Dam

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
In this assessment, we reviewed existing literature to assess the ecological risks, benefits, and uncertainties associated with reintroducing Chinook salmon into the McCloud River, a tributary of the Sacramento River, California. We identified considerations related to population viability, disease, and species interactions.

Advances in Rickettsia Pathogenicity

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009
One century after the first description of rickettsiae as human pathogens, the rickettsiosis remained poorly understood diseases. These microorganisms are indeed characterized by a strictly intracellular location which has, for long, prohibited their detailed study.

An Atypical Skin Presentation of Adult‐Onset Still's Disease With Histological Description: A Case Report

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an auto inflammatory disorder with a variable clinical presentation, and without a pathognomonic diagnostic test, characterized by high spiking fever, arthralgia/arthritis, a suggestive skin rash, elevated white blood cell count 10 G/L (> 80% neutrophils), elevated ferritin, with glycosylated ferritin < 20%
