Tick-borne rickettsioses in Europe

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2012
Rickettsioses are caused by obligate intracellular bacteria within the genus Rickettsia, mainly transmitted by arthropods. Until recently, Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) caused by Rickettsia conorii was considered the only tick-borne rickettsiosis in Europe. However, 'new' TBR have been described in Europe during last years.

Tick-borne rickettsioses in international travellers [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2004
Tick-borne rickettsioses are of emerging importance in today's travel medicine but have until recently received little attention. We describe the current knowledge of tick-borne rickettsioses as they relate to international travel, their microbiological diagnosis, treatment, possible prevention, and future prospects.Literature-based review and personal

Tick-Borne Rickettsioses around the World: Emerging Diseases Challenging Old Concepts [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2005
SUMMARYDuring most of the 20th century, the epidemiology of tick-borne rickettsioses could be summarized as the occurrence of a single pathogenic rickettsia on each continent. An element of this paradigm suggested that the many other characterized and noncharacterized rickettsiae isolated from ticks were not pathogenic to humans.

Tick-borne Diseases: Tick-borne Spotted Fever Rickettsioses in Africa

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2008
In the field of tick-borne rickettsioses, discussion is ongoing about new vectors and the geographic zones of the diseases. New Rickettsia spp. that cannot yet be linked to human disease are sometimes detected in arthropods. In Africa, in addition to R. conorii and R.

Occurrence and clinical manifestations of tick-borne rickettsioses in Western Siberia: First Russian cases of Rickettsia aeschlimannii and Rickettsia slovaca infections

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2022
Rickettsia sibirica subsp. sibirica is a main agent of tick-borne rickettsioses in Western Siberia, Russia. Recently, the first cases of Rickettsia raoultii infection in patients hospitalized in Novosibirsk Province were described. The aim of this study was to establish the etiologic agents of tick-borne rickettsioses in Western Siberia during three ...
