Vector-borne diseases pose a significant threat to human and animal health worldwide. Their emergence is influenced by various factors such as environmental changes, host characteristics, and human behavior. The One Health approach is necessary to thoroughly investigate tick-borne diseases and understand the complex interactions between environmental, animal, and human health. Anthropogenic changes have impacted predators, leading to cascading effects on wildlife prey species and the emergence of vector-borne diseases. The increase in global trade and travel has led to the introduction of several invasive vector species, increasing the risk of zoonotic pathogen spillover. Tick and tick-borne disease research requires an interdisciplinary approach to address challenges in a One Health paradigm.
媒介传播疾病对全球人类和动物健康构成重大威胁。它们的出现受到多种因素影响，如环境变化、宿主特征和人类行为。“同一健康”方法对于全面调查蜱传疾病以及理解环境、动物和人类健康之间的复杂相互作用是必要的。人为变化已经影响了捕食者，导致对野生动物猎物物种产生连锁反应，并引发媒介传播疾病。全球贸易和旅行的增加导致了几种入侵媒介物种的引入，增加了人畜共患病原体溢出的风险。蜱和蜱传疾病研究需要采用跨学科方法来应对“同一健康”范式中的挑战。
