Question Congenital toxoplasmosis is a dangerous fetal infection. Why is routine screening for Toxoplasma gondii infection during pregnancy not available for most Canadians? Answer Low prevalence of the infection, high cost associated with testing, low sensitivity of screening tests, false-positive test results, and limitations of treatment effectiveness are all cited as reasons for not routine...
An epizootic of toxoplasmosis occurred among 22 adult and 30 kit black-footed ferrets (Mustela nigripes) maintained under quarantine conditions at the Louisville Zoological Garden (Louisville, Kentucky, USA) in June, 1992. Black-footed ferrets appear to be highly susceptible to acute and chronic toxoplasmosis. Clinical signs were observed in 19 adults and six kits and included anorexia, letharg...
BACKGROUND About 30% of people on Earth have latent toxoplasmosis. Infected subjects do not express any clinical symptoms, however, they carry dormant stages of parasite Toxoplasma for the rest of their life. This form of toxoplasmosis is mostly considered harmless, however, recent studies showed its specific effects on physiology, behaviour and its associations with various diseases, including...
The recently modified fluorescence inhibition test for antibodies to toxoplasmosis is safe and relatively simple to perform. It appears to detect antibodies early in the course of acute systemic infection but is less sensitive than either the dye test or hemagglutination test in detecting chronic infection. Although hemagglutinating antibodies develop later than dye test antibodies in the cours...
Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic disease, recognized as a serious public health problem worldwide due to the ravaging HIV/AIDS pandemic. Who (2003) has reported that tuberculosis (TB) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality due to any one infectious agent worldwide. Few publications exist regarding Toxoplasma and tuberculosis co-infection. This study was carried out in Khartoum Sudan to...
Toxoplasmosis is caused by Toxoplasma gondii and the probability of this infection occurring in the first months of life is usually low because its transmission is related to eating habits. A 6-month-old nursing infant was diagnosed with acute toxoplasmosis, which was identified through anti- T. gondii IgA, IgM and low-avidity IgG serologic assays, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and mouse bioa...
We report the occurrence of congenital toxoplasmosis in three infants born to HIV infected women who had high anti-toxoplasma IgG and negative IgM during pregnancy. We briefly reviewed available literature and discussed the possible transmission mechanisms of congenital toxoplasmosis among HIV infected pregnant women. Serum samples were tested for Toxoplasma gondii IgM and IgG antibodies using ...
ighly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) significantly educed the cerebral toxoplasmosis incidence in HIV-infected atients from high-income countries.1 However, there is carce epidemiological information about this neurological pportunistic disease in lowand middle-income countries, ncluding Brazil. In this letter, we would like to report some ssues about AIDS-related cerebral toxoplasmosis ...
