Retrospective evaluation of vector-borne infections in dogs imported from the Mediterranean region and southeastern Europe (2007-2015). [PDF]
Parasit Vectors, 2019 BackgroundCanine vector-borne infections have gained importance in Germany due to growing tourist traffic and an increased import of dogs from abroad. Endemic regions for pathogens such as Leishmania infantum, Hepatozoon canis, Ehrlichia canis, Anaplasma

Increased risk for autochthonous vector-borne infections transmitted by Aedes albopictus in continental Europe. [PDF]
Euro Surveill, 2018 Autochthonous outbreaks of chikungunya and dengue during the past decade showed that continental Europe is vulnerable to Aedes albopictus–borne infections. Ae. albopictus has spread geographically, resulting in more people exposed to risk.

A conceptual model for optimizing vaccine coverage to reduce vector-borne infections in the presence of antibody-dependent enhancement. [PDF]
Theor Biol Med Model, 2018 Many vector-borne diseases co-circulate, as the viruses from the same family are also transmitted by the same vector species. For example, Zika and dengue viruses belong to the same Flavivirus family and are primarily transmitted by a common mosquito ...

Surveillance of Vector-Borne Infections (Chikungunya, Dengue, and Malaria) in Bo, Sierra Leone, 2012-2013. [PDF]
Am J Trop Med Hyg, 2017 Malaria remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in West Africa, but the contribution of other vector-borne infections (VBIs) to the burden of disease has been understudied. We used rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for three VBIs to test blood

Emerging roles of non-coding RNAs in vector-borne infections. [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2020 Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are nucleotide sequences that are known to assume regulatory roles previously thought to be reserved for proteins. Their functions include the regulation of protein activity and localization and the organization of subcellular ...

Infection and exposure to vector-borne pathogens in rural dogs and their ticks, Uganda [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 In rural parts of Africa, dogs live in close association with humans and livestock, roam freely, and usually do not receive prophylactic measures. Thus, they are a source of infectious disease for humans and for wildlife such as protected carnivores. In 2011, an epidemiological study was carried out around three conservation areas in Uganda to detect ...

Geographic range of vector-borne infections and their vectors: the role of African wildlife
Revue scientifique et technique, 2015 The role of African wildlife in the occurrence of vector-borne infections in domestic animals has gained renewed interest as emerging and re-emerging infections occur worldwide at an increasing rate. In Africa, biodiversity conservation and the expansion

Analysis of the dynamics of a vector-borne infection with the effect of imperfect vaccination from a fractional perspective [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 The burden of vector-borne infections is significant, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where vector populations are high and healthcare infrastructure may be inadequate.
