Population fluctuations and synanthropy explain transmission risk in rodent-borne zoonoses (original) (raw)

2022, Nature Communications

AI-generated Abstract

This research investigates the dynamics of rodent populations and their association with human habitats (synanthropy) to evaluate the transmission risk of zoonotic diseases carried by rodents. By analyzing population fluctuations alongside their proximity to urban areas, the study aims to reveal the patterns that enhance or mitigate disease spread. The findings underscore the importance of considering both ecological and anthropological factors in disease prevention strategies.
