Prevalence and Factors Associated with Acute Kidney Injury in Sub‐Saharan African Adults: A Review of the Current Literature

International Journal of Nephrology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex condition that can occur in both community and hospital settings and has many aetiologies. These aetiologies may be infectious, toxic, surgical, or related to the different management methods. Although it is a major public health problem worldwide, it must be emphasised that both its incidence and mortality rate ...

Distribution of Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. and Borrelia miyamotoi in Ixodes tick populations in Northern Germany, co‐infections with Rickettsiales and assessment of potential influencing factors

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 595-606, December 2021., 2021
Three thousand one hundred and fifty individual Ixodes ricinus ticks from Northern Germany were screened for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Borrelia miyamotoi, revealing an overall Borrelia prevalence of 30.6%. Analysis of co‐infections with Rickettsiales indicated a negative association between Borrelia and Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection ...

Large and interacting effects of temperature and nutrient addition on stratified microbial ecosystems in a small, replicated, and liquid‐dominated Winogradsky column approach

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 10, Issue 3, June 2021., 2021
We used a modified and highly replicated Winogradsky column approach for analyzing simultaneous global change effects (temperature and nutrient addition) on aquatic stratified microbial communities. We found that these global change treatments can have interaction effects and can differ between the oxic and anoxic layers and the community within ...

Parallelisms and Contrasts in the Diverse Ecologies of the Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Borrelia burgdorferi Complexes of Bacteria in the Far Western United States. [PDF]

, 2016
Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Borrelia burgdorferi are two tick-borne bacteria that cause disease in people and animals. For each of these bacteria, there is a complex of closely related genospecies and/or strains that are genetically distinct and have ...

Brachyspira pilosicoli-induced avian intestinal spirochaetosis [PDF]

, 2015
Avian intestinal spirochetosis (AIS) is a common disease occurring in poultry that can be caused by Brachyspira pilosicoli, a Gram-negative bacterium of the order Spirochaetes. During AIS, this opportunistic pathogen colonises the lower gastrointestinal (

Lyme Disease Risk of Exposure to Blacklegged Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) Infected with Borrelia burgdorferi (Spirochaetales: Spirochaetaceae) in Pittsburgh Regional Parks

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2019
AbstractLyme disease is the most commonly reported vector-borne illness and sixth most commonly reported notifiable infectious disease in the United States. The majority of cases occur in the Northeast and upper-Midwest, and the number and geographic distribution of cases is steadily increasing.

Bacterial diversity in the clarki ecotype of the photosynthetic sacoglossan, Elysia crispata

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020
The bacterial diversity of the solar‐powered sea slug, Elysia crispata (clarki ecotype), was investigated. The results showed inter‐individual variability in bacterial diversity, suggesting that the bacteria live commensally with these sea slugs. Abstract Few studies have examined the bacterial communities associated with photosynthetic sacoglossan sea
