Rodent-borne zoonotic diseases in Southeast Asia: A narrative review

open access: yesTropical Biomedicine
Rodent-borne zoonotic diseases, including hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, leptospirosis, and rickettsiosis, significantly impact public health. However, there is a limited understanding of these diseases in Southeast Asia, a region emerging as a hotspot for zoonotic diseases.

Dynamics of Rodent-Borne Zoonotic Diseases and Their Reservoir Hosts: Invasive Rattus in South Africa [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference, 2012
Author(s): Julius, Rolanda S.; Bastos, Armanda D.; Chimimba, Christian T.; Brettschneider, Helene | Abstract: Lack of adequate sanitation and pest control, and poor housing conditions that prevail in much of both rural and urban South Africa, cause rodent populations to thrive, promoting contact with humans, which results in increased risk of zoonotic ...

How much effort is required to accurately describe the complex ecology of a rodent‐borne viral disease?

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
AbstractWe use data collected on 18, 1‐ha live trapping grids monitored from 1994 through 2005 and on five of those grids through 2013 in the mesic northwestern United States to illustrate the complexity of the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus)/Sin Nombre virus (SNV) host‐pathogen system.

Building an early warning system for tick- and rodent-born diseases in Europe

open access: yes, 2012
The number of recorded emerging zoonotic diseases due to various micro-organisms harboured by rodents and ticks in Europe is increasing. Several factors may be involved in this rise, ranging from the capacity to identify new pathogens and recognise clinical signs of disease, to real changes in exposure and the spatial and temporal distribution and ...

Host aggregation and local density corresponds to heterogeneity in tick-borne and rodent-borne diseases

open access: yes, 2023
Host-parasite-pathogen dynamics in nature have been linked to a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, which shape the spatio-temporal heterogeneity of environment. Here we evaluated how anthropogenic food manipulation may affect hosts local density and space-use patterns, parasite burden, and pathogen prevalence The study was carried out from ...

The role of W.H.O. in the study and control of rodent-borne disease

open access: yes, 1974
While little information is available on the distribution and incidence of most of the diseases with rodent reservoirs, many of them are known to be widespread and may have considerable public health importance in some of the foci in which they are found.
