Contamination can be decreased by screening food handlers through physical exam and laboratory tests. The aim of this study was determining the prevalence of intestinal parasites in 2010.

متن کاملMalnutrition and parasitic helminth infections.
The Global Burden of Disease caused by the 3 major intestinal nematodes is an estimated 22.1 million disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) lost for hookworm, 10.5 million for Ascaris lumbricoides, 6.4 million for Trichuris trichiura, and 39.0 million for the three infections combined (as compared with malaria at 35.7 million) (World Bank, 1993; Chan et al. 1994); these figures illustrate why s...
متن کاملParasitic Infections and Inflammatory Diseases
The mammalian immune system is continuously exposed to infectious microorganisms as well as innocuous substances in the environment. Depending on the genetic makeup, the innate and adaptive immune responses develop and determine the frequency and the course of infectious diseases. The immune response to an infection is initiated by molecular recognition of damage-associated patterns (DAMPs) by ...
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 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...
