متن کاملSubmicroscopic Human Parasitic Infections
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification provides a powerful tool for parasite detection. This chapter examines the use of PCR to diagnose malaria in patients with low parasite densities (submicroscopic infections, SMI) and also occult loaiosis (OL: Loa loa infection without detectable circulating microfilaria on standard microscopy). It provides therefore the issue of management of these ...
متن کاملClimate changes and emerging fungal infections
Background: Candida auris is a globally emerging yeast pathogen that has shown not only resistance to most anti-fungal drugs but also thermo-tolerance to temperatures higher than the mammalian’s body temperature. Although it has been only a decade since the fungus was identified, its spread of infections has been rapid and quasi-epidemics have been reported. Co-occurrences of the fungus infecti...
متن کاملGenetics of parasitic infections.
Parasites cause much suffering mainly in countries of the southern hemisphere. Hundreds of millions of individuals are infected by schistosomes, leishmanias, plasmodiums, trypanosomes, and various other parasites, and severe clinical disease occurs in a sizable fraction of the infected population causing death and severe sequelae. The outcome, asymptomatic, subclinical or clinical disease, of a...
متن کاملCysticercosis: an emerging parasitic disease.
Cysticercosis (i.e., tapeworm infection) is an increasingly common medical problem in the United States, especially in the Southwest and other areas of heavy emigration from endemic areas or in populations with significant travel to these areas. The larval stage of the pork tape-worm, Taenia solium, causes the clinical syndrome of cysticercosis, with humans as dead-end hosts after ingestion of ...
