Prolonged Fever in Children: An Inpatient Diagnostic Framework for Infections in Australia

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 532-539, April 2025.
ABSTRACT There are many causes of fever in children, ranging from common and self‐limiting to serious and life threatening. Careful assessment of children with prolonged fever without an obvious or identified source requires detailed history and examination with consideration of infections unique to the specific geographical region and individual ...

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

open access: yesFood 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.

Rickettsiosis Infections in Sarawak: Epidemiological Insights and Public Health Strategies

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Rickettsiosis infections pose a significant public health concern in Sarawak, Malaysia. Despite their importance, these infections remain poorly recognised, under‐researched and inadequately documented within the context of the Sarawak region. This comprehensive evaluation seeks to address this knowledge gap by providing an in‐depth analysis of ...

Complete Genome Sequence ofRickettsia typhiand Comparison with Sequences of Other Rickettsiae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2004
ABSTRACTRickettsia typhi, the causative agent of murine typhus, is an obligate intracellular bacterium with a life cycle involving both vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Here we present the complete genome sequence ofR. typhi(1,111,496 bp) and compare it to the two published rickettsial genome sequences:R. prowazekiiandR. conorii.

Phosphatidylserine-binding receptor, CD300f, on macrophages mediates host invasion of pathogenic and non-pathogenic rickettsiae

open access: yesInfection and Immunity
Some arthropod-borne obligate intracellular rickettsiae are among the most virulent human pathogens. Rickettsia species modulate immune (e.g., macrophages; MΦ) and non-immune cell (e.g., endothelial cells) responses to create a habitable environment for ...

Wildlife Pathogens and Zoonotic Disease Risk Assessment in Vietnam: A Wildlife Trade Hotspot

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Vietnam is a wildlife trade hotspot presenting multiple high‐risk interfaces for pathogen spillover from wildlife to humans. However, the zoonotic disease risk remains poorly characterized in the country and needs to be assessed to better inform policy dialog and legislative reforms.
