Estimating scrub typhus and murine typhus incidence among adolescents and adults in Yangon, Myanmar

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 9, Page 978-986, September 2025.
Abstract Objectives Rickettsioses are frequent causes of treatable febrile illness in Southeast Asia, including Myanmar. Accurate estimates of the incidence of rickettsioses are needed to inform investments in disease prevention and control. We sought to estimate the incidence of rickettsioses among adults and adolescents by combining sentinel hospital

Legionella pneumophila modulates the host cytoskeleton by an effector of transglutaminase activity

mLife, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 232-248, June 2025.
Abstract The bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila delivers more than 330 effector proteins into host cells through its Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS) to facilitate its intracellular replication. A number of these effectors modulate organelle trafficking pathways to create a membrane‐bound niche called the Legionella‐containing vacuole ...

Comparison of Hemostatic Activity in Canine Leukoreduced Cryoprecipitate, Cryopoor Plasma, and Fresh Plasma

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 120-131, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background To date, no studies have reported the evaluation of hemostatic activity in canine leukoreduced cryoprecipitate (LR‐CRYO) and leukoreduced cryopoor plasma (LR‐CPP). Objectives We aimed to compare the hemostatic activity of LR‐CRYO and LR‐CPP to leukoreduced fresh plasma (LR‐FP) and to evaluate the preservation of LR‐CRYO by ...

In vitro susceptibilities of Coxiella burnetii, Rickettsia rickettsii, and Rickettsia conorii to the fluoroquinolone sparfloxacin [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1991
In vitro susceptibilities of Rickettsia rickettsii, Rickettsia conorii, and Coxiella burnetii to the new fluoroquinolone sparfloxacin (AT-4140; RP 64206) were determined. Plaque and dye uptake assays were used to measure the MICs against R. rickettsii and R. conorii. The susceptibilities of C.

Rickettsial seropositivity in the indigenous community and animal farm workers, and vector surveillance in Peninsular Malaysia

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2017
Rickettsioses are emerging zoonotic diseases that are often neglected in many countries in Southeast Asia. Rickettsial agents are transmitted to humans through exposure to infected arthropods.
