Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Tick-borne diseases have been an increasing threat to human and animal health all over the world. Anaplasmosis is one of the emerging tick-borne diseases and has zoonotic potential. A new novel species, which was detected in China in 2010–2012 and provisionally named Anaplasma capra in 2015, causes zoonotic infections and infects many different animal species. In this study, we investigated the presence of A. capra in domestic ruminants from Turkey. A total of 468 blood samples (cattle, sheep, and goat) were examined by the gltA gene-specific nested polymerase chain reaction, revealing the presence of A. capra in six samples (1.28%): one of them from cattle (0.41%) and the other five from sheep (3.22%). According to DNA sequences results of the gltA gene, A. capra isolates identified in the present study were shown high nucleotide similarity with A. capra isolates detected from different hosts. However, the nucleotide differences were detected in the same nucleotide positions between A. capra isolates. For this reason, we thought that at least two different A. capra genotypes could be circulating in the world. As a result, it is seen that A. capra, which was determined to be a new species with zoonotic potential, was revealed in European and Asian countries and in different hosts. In order to raise awareness about human anaplasmosis infections, it is important to reveal the prevalence of the species in the world. The emergence of A. capra in Turkey reveals the need for a re-evaluation of the human and animal health risk analysis in terms of anaplasmosis.
