| [biology of ixodes ricinus (l.) and its pathogens in wrocław area]. | within 2001-2003, a total of 4743 ticks of ixodes ricinus were trapped from the forest area in masyw sliy (lower silesia, poland) near wrocław. common distribution of ixodid ticks in all examined habitats, located near touristic routes, are potential loci of lyme borreliosis in these recreational areas. out of 1108 tick samples examined by the observation in dfm for the presence of spirochetes, 6.7% were positive. the highest percent of infected ticks (13.1%) was found in 2003. | 2004 | 16859033 |
| [mapping of parasitological environmental data: the tick ixodes ricinus--a case of study]. | while the mapping of health data is not new for epidemiologists the incorporation of differentiated environmental factors, e.g., temperature, rainfall, humidity, elevation, vegetation type, host abundance and distribution, zoonotic reservoirs of infection can create a new opportunities for parasitologists. suitable tools for spatial modeling of health problems and pathogen occurrence in space and time are provided by geographic information system (gis). it is computer-based system which integrat ... | 2009 | 20209815 |
