a global zoonosis that presents severe public health challenge and major economic burden, especially for the countries in the South Eastern Europe and the Med-iterranean. The incidence of brucellosis caused by Brucella melitensis is very high, primarily in sheep and goats. The World Health Organization (WHO) designated brucellosis as one of 7 neglected, under-detected, and underreported zoonoti...

The relationship between blood groups and some infections such as norovirus, cholera, and malaria has been reported. Despite the importance of brucellosis, there is a lack of data on the relationship between blood groups and brucellosis. Thus, in this study, we examined the relationship between blood groups and brucellosis. In this case-control study, the blood groups of 100 patients with bruce...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of life of patients infected with brucellosis compared to a control population from the same geographic region. The quality of life of brucellosis positive and brucellosis negative individuals from rural and urban areas of Mexico was evaluated using the Short-Form SF-36 Health Survey. This survey is a generic measure of physical and mental healt...

Brucellosis is an economically important disease worldwide. Bangladesh has been reported an endemic area for brucellosis. The occurrence of brucellosis in people and the distribution of the disease among the livestock to be spatially related. A survey of brucellosis was carried out in sheep of Netrakona and Mymensingh districts of Bangladesh. A total number 102 blood samples were collected from...

Background: In a low transmission zone for malaria, we explored the presence of brucellosis as an alternative diagnosis in febrile patients. Specifically, the objective of our study was to determine the proportion of patients presenting to the hospital with malaria-like febrile symptoms that were concurrently brucellosis seropositive, and assess related risk factors. Methods: The study was done...

Russia has extensive experience in controlling brucellosis in large and small animals, based on systematic animal health and disease control measures, combined with the use of specific prophylaxis. Widespread application of the live brucellosis vaccine Brucella abortus strain 82 has led to a dramatic reduction in the prevalence of brucellosis. Among the distinctive properties of this vaccine ar...

Brucellosis is a zoonosis caused by Brucella species. Brucellosis research in natural hosts is often precluded by practical, economical and ethical reasons and mice are widely used. However, mice are not natural Brucella hosts and the course of murine brucellosis depends on bacterial strain virulence, dose and inoculation route as well as breed, genetic background, age, sex and physiological st...

Brucellosis is an infection that affects mammals’ cells caused by a species from the genus Brucella, gram-negative, immobile, facultative, intracellular, and microaerophilic coccobacillus. In humans, pathogen are Brucella melitensis, B. abortus, suis canis. We presenting case of 62-year-old man with confirmed brucellosis his consequent cardiovascular, cutaneous, gastrointestinal, hepatic, osteo...

Background: Brucellosis in male goats is characterized by arthritis, orchitis and epididymitis, which may induce infertility. Nevertheless, these lesions were categorized as chronic while acute lesions had not been described. This study investigates the histopathological and immuno histochemistry reactions in organs of bucks acutely infected by Brucella melitensis. Results: Only testis and prep...
