Background The Atlixco municipality, Puebla State, at a mean altitude of 1840 m, was selected for study Fasciola hepatica infection in schoolchildren Mexico. This area presents permanent water collections continuously receiving thaw from Popocatepetl volcano (5426 m altitude) through the community supply channels, conforming an epidemiological scenario similar to those known hyperendemic areas Andean countries. Methodology and Findings A total 865 6–14 year-old were analyzed with FasciDIG...
Coprologic surveys were carried out in villages of the Behera Governorate Nile Delta region Egypt to characterize epidemiologic features human fascioliasis caused by Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica this lowland endemic area comparison with only areas hyperendemic for disease Andean highlands South America. The prevalences detected (range = 5.2-19.0%, mean 12.8%) are highest obtained Egypt. previous results suggests that Delta, is spreading from an original situation sporadic cases...
The performance of Fas2-ELISA for the diagnosis Fasciola hepatica infection in children living areas high endemicity fascioliasis Peruvian Andes is analyzed. based on detection circulating IgG antibodies elicited infected individuals against a F. antigen termed Fas2. study was conducted three Andean localities, Huertas-Julcan Junin, Asillo Puno, and Cajamarca, with total population 634 an age range 1 to 16 years old. Child prevalence 21.1% Huertas-Julcan, 25.4% Asillo, 24% estimated by...
Large areas of the province Punjab, Pakistan are endemic for fascioliasis, resulting in high economic losses due to livestock infection but also affecting humans directly. The prevalence varies pronouncedly space and time (1-70%). Climatic factors influencing fascioliasis presence potential spread were analysed based on data from five meteorological stations during 1990-2010. Variables such as wet days (Mt), water-budget-based system (Wb-bs) indices normalized difference vegetation index...
The Bolivian northern Altiplano is characterized by a high prevalence of Fasciola hepatica infection. In order to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy large-scale administration triclabendazole as an appropriate public health measure control morbidity associated with fascioliasis, pilot intervention was implemented in 2008.Schoolchildren from endemic community were screened for fascioliasis treated single (10 mg/kg). Interviews occurrence adverse events conducted on treatment day, one...
Fascioliasis is caused by Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. The latter, always considered secondary in human infection, nowadays appears increasingly involved Africa Asia. Unfortunately, little known about its pathogenicity, mainly due to difficulties assessing the moment a patient first becomes infected differential diagnosis with hepatica. A long-term, 24-week, experimental study comparing gigantica was made for time same animal model host, Guirra sheep. Serum biochemical parameters of...
Fascioliasis, only foodborne trematodiasis of worldwide distribution, is caused by Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica, liver flukes transmitted freshwater snails. Southern southeastern Asia an emerging hot spot despite its hitherto less involvement in human infection. In Vietnam, increasing cases have been reported since 1995, whereas sixteen throughout 1800–1994. A database was created to include epidemiological data fascioliasis patients from the 63 Vietnam provinces 1995–2019. Case...
