Transmission parameters of vector-borne infections
Médecine Et Maladies Infectieuses, 2011Vector-borne infections are those for which the agent (virus, bacteria, or parasite) is transmitted from an infected host (animal or human) to another by a hematophagous arthropod (mosquito, tick, lice, and flea). Two parameters quantify the dynamics of a vector-borne infection: (1) the basic reproductive number (R(0)) that is the mean number of ...

Emerging Vector-Borne Infections
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1991The principles that regulate the transmission of vector-borne infectious agents are briefly described. In particular, the circumstances that may lead to human exposure to various North American zoonoses are analyzed.

Zoonotic aspects of vector-borne infections.
Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2015Vector-borne diseases are principally zoonotic diseases transmitted to humans by animals. Pathogens such as bacteria, parasites and viruses are primarily maintained within an enzootic cycle between populations of non-human primates or other mammals and largely non-anthropophilic vectors. This 'wild' cycle sometimes spills over in the form of occasional

Therapy of vector-borne protozoan infections in nonendemic settings
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2011Vector-borne protozoan infections are responsible for a wide variety of illnesses (mainly malaria, trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis) affecting tropical and subtropical areas, but increasingly diagnosed in nonendemic settings. This article summarizes the therapeutic developments for these conditions during the past decade and focuses specifically on ...

An epidemiological survey of vector-borne pathogens infecting cattle in Kyrgyzstan
Parasitology International, 2023Cattle production is a major contributor to the national economy of Kyrgyzstan. Most cattle in Kyrgyzstan are managed via extensive systems and graze in communal pastures. As a result, infestations with ectoparasites are widespread, implying that various vector-borne diseases might be common in cattle.

Modeling the impact of global warming on vector-borne infections
Physics of Life Reviews, 2011Global warming will certainly affect the abundance and distribution of disease vectors. The effect of global warming, however, depends on the complex interaction between the human host population and the causative infectious agent. In this work we review some mathematical models that were proposed to study the impact of the increase in ambient ...
