An epidemiological survey was undertaken from March to September 2010 to assess the prevalence and zoonotic aspects of scabies in small ruminants in two agro-ecological zones in southern Benin. Small ruminant (n = 444) smallholders and 1,807 of their animals (1,233 West African dwarf goats and 574 West African dwarf sheep) were included in the study. The animals underwent physical examination a...
The diagnosis of Norwegian scabies was missed for a year for an elderly long-term-care facility resident. Serpiginous tracks were noted on the surface of Sabouraud dextrose agar used for fungal culture of the skin scrapings. This unusual laboratory manifestation must alert clinical microbiologists to the possible diagnosis of scabies.
BACKGROUND Pruritic scabies lesions caused by Sarcoptes scabiei burrowing in the stratum corneum of human skin facilitate opportunistic bacterial infections. Emerging resistance to current therapeutics emphasizes the need to identify novel targets for protective intervention. We have characterized several protein families located in the mite gut as crucial factors for host-parasite interactions...
BACKGROUND Impetigo and scabies are endemic diseases in many tropical countries; however the epidemiology of these diseases is poorly understood in many areas, particularly in the Pacific. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We conducted three epidemiological studies in 2006 and 2007 to determine the burden of disease due to impetigo and scabies in children in Fiji using simple and easily reproduc...
During seven years, our research group conducted a big and multicenter study on comparing different medications with different dosage in the treatment of scabies. This study led to multiple publications in high impact peer reviewed journals. There were some minor errors in the releasing of study results that I want to point out in this letter. In the Alipour et al. [1] study none of 420 patient...
the prevalence of sarcoptes in rural areas has been investigated by many investigators. sarcoptes infestation in areas with poor education and hygienic is higher than urban areas. in this study, one severe case of sarcoptes scabiei infestation is described from a four months old child. confirmation of scabies was done by clinical examination of child and by the identification of the mite by mi...
Scabies is a major threat to the well being of mountain-dwelling Bovid hosts, Rupicapra rupicapra and Rupicapra pyrenaica. Severe outbreaks are in progress over a significant part of their distribution area and resource managers demand improved methods to monitor, analyse and possibly forecast the spread and effects of scabies at the population level. An amplified capture enzyme-linked immunoso...
Bullous scabies is a rare disease that is usually diagnosed in elderly patients. The clinical, histological, and immunological findings are identical to bullous pemphigoid. In a review of the literature, we found reports of 24 cases. We present a new case of bullous scabies in a 72-year-old man. The lesions responded to treatment with oral ivermectin.
Norwegian scabies is a rare skin infestation by the mite Sarcoptes scabei var hominis. This condition typically presents with widespread, crusted lesions associated with hyperkeratotic scales. The elderly, the debilitated, and patients who are immunocompromised are at risk for this more severe form of scabies. The authors discuss the presentation, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of this der...
