Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that highly prevalent, especially in developing countries. Biomphalaria tenagophila an important invertebrate host of Schistosoma mansoni Brazil, with some strains (e.g. Cabo Frio) being susceptible to the parasite, whereas others Taim) are completely resistant infection. Therefore, B. research model for studying immune defense mechanisms against S. mansoni. The internal system (IDS) snail comprises hemocytes and hemolymph factors acting together...
Biomphalaria tenagophila is very important for schistosomiasis transmission in Brazil. However its mechanisms of interaction with Schistosoma mansoni are still scantly studied. Since this snail displays strains highly susceptible or completely resistant to the parasite infection, knowledge that would be a useful tool understand mechanism resistance. Particularly, Taim strain consistently shows absolute resistance against trematode, and dominant character. A multidisciplinary research group...
Human neural angiostrongyliasis is an emerging infectious disease caused by nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis. The present study investigated the presence of spp. in terrestrial molluscs collected from following areas Metropolitan Region Aracaju, Sergipe State, Brazil: Barra dos Coqueiros, Nossa Senhora do Socorro, Sao Cristovao and Aracaju. In total, 703 specimens representing 13 mollusc species were screened for Larvae found three species. recovered Achatina fulica used experimental...
Transplantation of the haematopoietic organ from Biomphalaria tenagophila (Taim strain, RS, Brazil), resistant to Schistosoma mansoni, a highly susceptible strain (Cabo Frio, RJ, Brazil) same species, showed in recipient snails resistance against trematode, when successful transplant occurred. The success transplantation could be confirmed by typical molecular marker Taim haemocytes recipients (350 bp detected PCR-RFLP). which did not present donor (unsuccessful transplantation) were...
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the performance of point-of-care circulating cathodic antigen (POC-CCA) test in a highly endemic area Brazil, comparing it Kato-Katz (KK) technique for sensitivity, specificity and intensity reaction relation parasitic load. The community Sergipe, participated study, providing three stool samples, one urine fingers tick blood sample was tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative...
Intestinal parasites cause a significant public health problem worldwide due to the associated morbidities, mainly in infected school-aged children (SAC). The strategy of large-scale deworming SAC control transmission soil-transmitted helminths (STH) has been advocated by World Health Organization and was recently adopted Brazil; however, long-term effects mass on larger parasitological profile have less studied. After five-year period school-based treatment for STH using an annual single...
Biomphalaria glabrata snails are major hosts for the digenetic trematoda Schistosoma mansoni, causative agent of human schistosomiasis. The success or failure infection will be dependent on mobilization molluskan internal defense system, where a role played by circulating hemocytes produced APO (amebocyte-producing organ) snail. In this report, primary culture region B. was obtained first time, as well control ovotestis. Three different cell populations migrated easily from explants in...
Limnic mollusks could negatively affect the ecosystem in which they are found, economy, human and animals´ health. This study reports on a survey of freshwater sources their spatial distribution, as well investigating them for presence trematodes municipality Nossa Senhora de Lourdes, Sergipe, Brazil. was performed through March 2016 November 2017. The were collected different water bodies georeferenced studied area, identified analyzed trematodes. Thirty-four sampled, found 18 (53%) them....
REVISÃO DE LITERATURA RESUMO A ancoragem esquelética com o uso de mini-implantes revolucionou controle na ortodontia, oferecendo uma alternativa mais eficaz e previsível em relação às mecânicas tradicionais que dependem aparelhos extrabucais elásticos intermaxilares. Esse método tem se mostrado particularmente vantajoso, pois reduz ou elimina a necessidade colaboração do paciente, acelerando tratamento garantindo maior precisão nos movimentos dentários. Durante fase retração anterior, etapa...
Objective: To identify the risk factors related to Schistosomiasis mansoni in a quilombola community located highly endemic area Northeast of Brazil. Methods: This is an ecological epidemiological study conducted with 497 individuals, both sexes aged over 4 years. Information on sociodemographic, economic, and environmental data from Patioba was collected through questionnaire, stored Excel database, evaluated by descriptive statistics. Results: From sample, 53.92% were women 46.08% men,...
O este estudo visa analisar a tendência-temporal da hanseníase em Sergipe e sua correlação com os determinantes sociais saúde. Trata-se de um epidemiológico, do tipo ecológico série temporal, abordagens descritivas. No serão utilizados dados Sistema Nacional Agravos Notificação (SINAN) Ministério Saúde, relativos ao período 2007 2017.Foram selecionados trêsindicadores epidemiológicos: coeficientes casos novos na população geral, menores 15 anos o grau II incapacidade física, esses foram...
O estudo visa comparar a eficácia e sensibilidade de três técnicas parasitológicas no diagnóstico das helmintíases em uma área endêmica nordeste do Brasil. Trata-se um epidemiológico, descritivo comparativo, o mesmo foi realizado município Maruim, que fica aproximadamente 30 km da capital estado Sergipe, cidade Aracaju. Foram distribuídos kits coletadas 3 amostras diárias entre os dias 17 20 setembro 2018, posteriormente as foram transportadas até laboratório Entomologia Parasitologia...
Analisar a positividade e os fatores de risco associados à infecção da esquistossomose mansoni das enteroparasitoses em área endêmica, Sergipe, Brasil. Trata-se um estudo transversal. O envolveu 160 moradores do povoado Siebra, situado na zona rural município Maruim, Sergipe. As positividades para Schistosoma e/ou enteroparasitos foram identificadas por meio método Kato-Katz Ritchie, respectivamente, correlacionados com as condições socioambientais região. Em relação foi 49,37%; prevaleceu...
The POC-CCA test is subject to variations in reading interpretations depending on the intensity of its results, and trace have implications for determining prevalence. aim this study was assess whether readings obtained from tests, conducted using a semi-quantitative scale (the G Score classification determination), exhibited concurrence with direct visual interpretation (positive, negative, or trace) performed by two distinct analysts. Photographs diagnostic tests municipality Maruim, state...
