Persistence mechanisms in tick-borne diseases : tick-borne diseases
Onderstepoort J Vet Res, 2009 The use of new, highly sensitive diagnostic methods has revealed persistent infections to be a common feature of different tick-borne diseases, such as babesiosis, anaplasmosis and heartwater. Antigenic variation can contribute to disease persistence through the continual elaboration of new surface structures, and we know in several instances how ...

Tick-borne pathogen – Reversed and conventional discovery of disease
Frontiers in Public Health, 2014 Molecular methods have increased the number of known microorganisms associated with ticks significantly. Some of these newly identified microorganisms are readily linked to human disease while others are yet unknown to cause human disease.

The Effect of Disease-induced Mortality on Structural Network Properties [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 10, e0136704 (2015), 2015 As the understanding of the importance of social contact networks in the spread of infectious diseases has increased, so has the interest in understanding the feedback process of the disease altering the social network. While many studies have explored the influence of individual epidemiological parameters and/or underlying network topologies on the ...

Phase diagram of epidemic spreading - unimodal vs. bimodal probability distributions [PDF]
, 2009 The disease spreading on complex networks is studied in SIR model. Simulations on empirical complex networks reveal two specific regimes of disease spreading: local containment and epidemic outbreak. The variables measuring the extent of disease spreading are in general characterized by a bimodal probability distribution.

Relapsing Fevers: Neglected Tick-Borne Diseases [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018 Relapsing fever still remains a neglected disease and little is known on its reservoir, tick vector and physiopathology in the vertebrate host. The disease occurs in temperate as well as tropical countries. Relapsing fever borreliae are spirochaetes, members of the Borreliaceae family which also contain Lyme disease spirochaetes.

Citizen science informs human-tick exposure in the Northeastern United States
International Journal of Health Geographics, 2019 Background Tick-borne disease is the result of spillover of pathogens into the human population. Traditionally, literature has focused on characterization of tick-borne disease pathogens and ticks in their sylvatic cycles.
