Epidemiological and Clinical Characteristics of Alveolar Echinococcosis: An Emerging Infectious Disease in Alberta, Canada.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2021
Human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a zoonotic cestode infection which is usually fatal in the absence of treatment. Treatment involves major surgery or indefinite antiparasitic therapy.

Evaluation of the Diagnostic Performance of Recombinant Antigen B1 for Detection of Cystic Echinococcosis Using Lateral Flow Dipstick Test

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2020
Background: Human echinococcosis is a neglected zoonotic disease distributed worldwide. It comprises cystic and alveolar forms, the former being the more prevalent disease.

Emerging human alveolar echinococcosis in Hungary (2003–2018): a retrospective case series analysis from a multi-centre study

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background Human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by Echinococcus multilocularis is an underreported, often misdiagnosed and mistreated parasitic disease mainly due to its low incidence.

Human alveolar echinococcosis in Slovenia [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2007
Between January 2001 and December 2005, 1263 patients suspected of having echinococcosis were screened serologically by indirect haemagglutination assay (IHA). IHA-positive patient sera were then retested by western blot for confirmation and differentiation between Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis infection.

Massive sympathetic nerve infiltration in advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Alveolar echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease that mostly affects the liver, with vascular invasion and a protean clinical symptom. However, no reports of sympathetic nerve infiltration in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis have been reported ...

In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli [PDF]

open access: yesDans Endoscopic Microscopy III, (Guillermo J. Tearney and Thomas D. Wang - Editors) - In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli, San Jose : \'Etats-Unis d'Am\'erique (2008), 2008
Fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) is a new technique that can be used during a bronchoscopy to analyze the nature of the human bronchial and alveolar mucosa fluorescence microstructure. An endoscopic fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy system with spectroscopic analysis capability was developed allowing real-time, simultaneous images

Surface tension effects on flow dynamics and alveolar mechanics in the acinar region of human lung [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, in-vitro setups, and experimental ex-vivo approaches have been applied to numerous alveolar geometries over the past years. They aimed to study and examine airflow patterns, particle transport, and particle-alveolar wall deposition fractions.
