Ticks From Mink and Their Associated Microorganisms in Spain

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Wildlife is an important source of emerging zoonotic agents, including tick‐borne ones. Wild carnivores such as mink are commonly parasitized by ticks, which are vectors and reservoirs of zoonotic diseases. Besides the importance of these arthropods as potential sources of diseases in mink, and the role of these mammals as reservoirs of infectious ...

Prevalence of Anaplasma, Ehrlichia and Rickettsia infections in dogs in Iran: A meta‐analysis study

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 2, March 2024.
This study assesses Rickettsiales bacteria prevalence in Iranian dogs, which can affect both animals and humans. Dogs’ interactions with people and livestock make them potential carriers of these zoonotic pathogens. Data gathered until 1 March 2022, from various sources revealed disparities among genera, with 20.1% for Anaplasma spp.

Diagnosis of a Rare Rickettsia felis Infection Complicated with Unusual Pericardial Effusion and Cardiac Tamponade Using an mNGS Test

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The occurrence of sporadic rickettsial infections has been consistently undervalued and overlooked, primarily owing to a limited emphasis on routine examinations for rickettsioses in clinical practice. At present, the immunofluorescence assay is the prevailing diagnostic method for suspected rickettsioses that enables the detection of specific ...
