Countries in the Southeast Asia region have a high prevalence of soil-transmitted helminth, such as roundworm, whipworm, and hookworms [Ancylostoma duodenale, Necator americanus, Ancylostoma ceylanicum]. Recent molecular-based surveys have revealed that A. ceylanicum, a zoonotic hookworm,
Systemic lupus erythematosus was diagnosed in a dog with concurrent nematode infection. The clinical signs of disease were unusually severe and included multiple neurologic deficits, polyarthritis, and weight loss. The dog was thrombocytopenic, and serotest results included positive lupus

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), which re-emerged in China in October 2010, has spread rapidly worldwide. Detailed analyses of the complete genomes of different PEDV strains are essential to understand the relationships among re-emerging and historic strains worldwide. Here, we analysed the
Diarrhoea caused by multiple nematode infection is uncommon in Spain, therefore we are not very familiar with the diagnosis and treatment of these patients.
The objective of our study was to explain the variability of average daily weight gain (ADWG) due to gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infection for 291 non treated first grazing season (FGS) heifers, from 12 independent groups in the western part of France, by combining parasitological and clinical

Hypovitaminosis A is a problem in many parts of the developing world. Beyond the stop-gap measures of capsule distribution and food fortification, increased consumption of accessible sources of vitamin A, specifically of the carotenoid provitamin A in yellow, orange, and green plants, has been
The United States Food and Drug Administration has approved the parasiticidal agent nitazoxanide for treatment of diarrhea caused by Giardia lamblia/intestinalis or Cryptosporidium parvum. This novel agent has a broad spectrum of activity against many other gastrointestinal pathogens, including
This paper presents a study on the bagging and collection of household solid waste and the health implications for children. The research was conducted in nine human settlements on the outskirts of Salvador, Bahia State, Brazil. Intestinal nematode infection, predominantly involving Ascaris
