Experimental Rodent Models of Cardiovascular Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2020
Cardiovascular diseases, as the most common non-communicable disease in the world, cause a high mortality rate today and bring a serious medical burden to countries worldwide, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Experimental rodent models are

Impact of climate change on vector- and rodent-borne infectious diseases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Health Monitoring, 2023
Background: Endemic and imported vector- and rodent-borne infectious agents can be linked to high morbidity and mortality. Therefore, vector- and rodent-borne human diseases and the effects of climate change are important public health issues.

Rodent-borne diseases and their public health importance in Iran.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
BackgroundRodents are reservoirs and hosts for several zoonotic diseases such as plague, leptospirosis, and leishmaniasis. Rapid development of industry and agriculture, as well as climate change throughout the globe, has led to change or increase in ...

Rodent reservoirs of future zoonotic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
SignificanceForecasting reservoirs of zoonotic disease is a pressing public health priority. We apply machine learning to datasets describing the biological, ecological, and life history traits of rodents, which collectively carry a disproportionate number of zoonotic pathogens.

An analysis of rodent density patterns and its spatial–temporal correlations using geographically and temporally weighted regression in southeastern China [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionRodents are significant vectors, harboring diverse pathogenic microorganisms which can spread a variety of infectious diseases. Surveillance on rodent density patterns should be prioritized as early warning indicators for prevention and ...

Rodent models for prion diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2008
Until today most prion strains can only be propagated and the infectivity content assayed by experimentally challenging conventional or transgenic animals. Robust cell culture systems are not available for any of the natural and only for a few of the experimental prion strains.

Rodent-borne diseases in Thailand: targeting rodent carriers and risky habitats [PDF]

open access: yesInfection Ecology & Epidemiology, 2012
Background: Comparative analysis, which aims at investigating ecological and evolutionary patterns among species, may help at targeting reservoirs of zoonotic diseases particularly in countries presenting high biodiversity.
