Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), caused by the tick-borne severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), is a disease that is endemic to East Asia and has mortality rates reaching 30%. Despite its substantial public health impact, no vaccines or antiviral treatments are currently available. The […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Cockroaches, particularly Blattella germanica and Periplaneta americana, are among the most medically important insects, because of their close association with human living environments. They act as a critical reservoir and vector for a diverse range of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. These pathogens pose substantial public health challenges, […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. The objectives of this study were to characterise the epidemiology of human and animal brucellosis in the eastern Algerian province of Constantine, and to identify the interactions between humans and animals, to establish strategies from a unique health perspective considering the context of endemicity and eradication challenges. […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. This study was aimed at evaluating the relationship between microscopic agglutination test (MAT) seropositivity and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) reactivity in cattle. An additional objective was assessment of the diagnostic value of both tests in detecting seropositivity and infection caused by pathogenic Leptospira. Blood and urine samples […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Hematologic disorders occur frequently in patients with Ebola virus disease (EVD) and are characterized by one or several abnormalities in blood cells, including hemostasis, which is poorly documented. This study described the hematologic abnormalities of Ebola patients and the impact on the outcomes of patients who were […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. This study analyzed the distribution and progression of prion seeds across the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral tissues, by evaluating the real time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) reactivity of the brain, and other organs and tissues, from hamsters in early, middle-early, middle-late and terminal stages of intracerebral […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Northeastern China has a high incidence of tick-borne diseases. Emerging and re-emerging tick-borne viral diseases pose a considerable threat to public health. To date, ten tick-borne viruses have been identified to cause disease in humans or animals in northeastern China. The complex diversity of tick-borne viral diseases […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. The zoonotic pathogen Campylobacter is a major foodborne bacterial species worldwide. The distribution and drivers of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in global Campylobacter strains remain largely unknown. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis of longitudinal trends and driving factors of AMR in Campylobacter is necessary at a global level. 66,771 Campylobacter genomes (24,115 from C. coli and 42,656 from C. jejuni) […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Inner Mongolia, with its vast grasslands providing ideal habitats for ticks, has recently emerged as a hotspot of novel tick-borne virus (TBV) prevalence. However, the diversity of TBVs and their potential spillover risks remain to be elucidated. In 2021, 500 Haemaphysalis longicornis, Ixodes persulcatus, and Dermacentor silvarum ticks were collected […]
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), an exotoxin produced by single- or multi-drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), can induce food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome. Because no treatment is available for SEB-poisoned patients, development of a safe and effective SEB antidote is urgently needed. First, SEB was prepared, and native SEB […]
