Climate change and Ixodes tick-borne diseases of humans
The evidence that climate warming is changing the distribution of Ixodes ticks and the pathogens they transmit is reviewed and evaluated. The primary approaches are either phenomenological, which typically assume that climate alone limits current and future distributions, or mechanistic, asking which tick-demographic parameters are affected by specific abiotic conditions. Both approaches have p...
متن کاملTick-Borne Diseases of Humans
In “Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Necrotizing Pneumonia,” by Monica Monaco et al., an error occurred on page 1647, in the first full sentence of the third column. The sentence should read “On day 3 of admission, antimicrobial drug therapy was changed to linezolid (600 mg 2 times a day).” The corrected text appears in the online article at http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol11no10/05...

متن کاملComparative Studies in Tick-Borne Diseases in Animals and Humans
In temperate zones of the earth, ticks are the most important arthropod vectors of zoonotic pathogens affecting humans and domestic animals. Ticks transmit the widest range of pathogen types, from viruses to rickettsiae, other bacteria, and protozoa. Historically, research with tick-borne pathogens has lagged behind research with mosquitoes, owing to a combination of their much longer life-cycl...
متن کاملEffects of Climate Change on Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases in Europe
Zoonotic tick-borne diseases are an increasing health burden in Europe and there is speculation that this is partly due to climate change affecting vector biology and disease transmission. Data on the vector tick Ixodes ricinus suggest that an extension of its northern and altitude range has been accompanied by an increased prevalence of tick-borne encephalitis. Climate change may also be partl...
