Lyme carditis is a complication occurring in 1%–5% of Lyme disease infections. It can lead to life‐threatening cardiac conduction abnormalities. Treatment with antibiotics may trigger the Jarisch–Herxheimer reaction (JHR), an acute inflammatory response to spirochetal lysis. Here, we present a 32‐year‐old postpartum female with complete heart block and

Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) threaten livestock productivity and public health worldwide, and climate–land‐use change is expanding vector habitats, elevating tick‐borne disease risk. However, TBP diversity and risk in Hubei Province, central China, remain insufficiently defined within a One Health framework.

Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).
