Human immune cell engraftment does not alter development of severe acute Rift Valley fever in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Rift Valley fever (RVF) in humans is usually mild, but, in a subset of cases, can progress to severe hepatic and neurological disease. Rodent models of RVF generally develop acute severe clinical disease.

Review on Major Challenges of Veterinary Service Delivery in Ethiopia

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Ethiopian veterinary services face systemic barriers, including inadequate infrastructure, a severe shortage of qualified veterinarians, and underfunded diagnostic facilities, particularly in rural and pastoralist areas. These challenges, compounded by limited access to molecular diagnostic tools, poor data sharing, and low public awareness, result in ...

Rift Valley fever: a review [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2020
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a mosquito-borne viral disease, principally of ruminants, that is endemic to Africa. The causative Phlebovirus, Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), has a broad host range and, as such, also infects humans to cause primarily a self ...

Seroprevalence and Associated Risk Factors of Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease in Livestock in Ethiopia: Findings From a National Surveillance (2016–2023)

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly contagious, endemic threat to Ethiopia's livestock sector, requiring precise data to guide effective control. This cross‐sectional study analysed 19,699 serum samples from cattle, sheep, and goats collected between 2016 and 2023 using NSP‐ELISA.

The small genome segment of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus harbours a single transcription-termination signal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Transcription termination of the mRNA produced from the small (S) genome segment of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (BUNV) has previously been mapped to two cis-acting sequences located within the 5′ UTR using a virus-free replication assay.

Threshold Dynamics in a Periodic Three-Patch Rift Valley Fever Virus Transmission Model

open access: yesComplexity, 2019
This paper investigates a three-patch Rift Valley fever virus transmission model with periodic coefficients. The basic reproduction number Ri0i=1,2,3 is calculated for the model by using the next infection operator method. The threshold conditions on the

Rift Valley Fever in Chad

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
To evaluate the importance of human exposure to Rift Valley fever virus in Chad, investigations were carried out to determine specific antibody prevalence in domestic ruminants during the 2002 rainy season. Results highlighted recent, substantial, active

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1779-1792, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Mycoplasma Contamination Alters the Expression Profile of Pro‐Inflammatory Cytokines by Human Innate Immune Cells

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The impact of Mycoplasma contaminations on in vitro test systems has been extensively discussed and in vitro studies have demonstrated various effects on the physiology of the contaminated cell line. Thus far, little is known about the effect of biologically active substances, such as viruses produced in contaminated cell lines on primary ...

Bunyaviral diseases of animals (excluding Rift Valley fever and Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever): Chapter 3.10.1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The order Bunyavirales has hundreds of members distributed over 12 families with a large number of genera. Most viruses of the different families are transmitted to vertebrates by arthropods (arboviruses).
