Populations at Risk for Alveolar Echinococcosis, France

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
During 1982-2007, alveolar echinococcosis (AE) was diagnosed in 407 patients in France, a country previously known to register half of all European patients. To better define high-risk groups in France, we conducted a national registry-based study to identify areas where persons were at risk and spatial clusters of cases. We interviewed 180 AE patients

Liver Alveolar Echinococcosis Metastasized to the Breast [PDF]

open access: yesBreast Care, 2011
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a potentially fatal and chronically progressive infestation produced by the multivesicular metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis, which most commonly affects the liver, lungs, and brain.We present a case of AE in which an alveolar cyst, as a result of exophytic growth, adhered to intra-abdominal and pelvic organs ...

Suitability of Fourier transform infrared microscopy for the diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis in human tissue sections

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2024.
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a global health concern caused by cestodes. In this retrospective case study, Fourier transform infrared microscopy was explored for detecting and identifying CE through biochemical changes in human tissue sections. Results revealed the method's ability to distinguish echinococcus elements from human tissue, irrespective ...

The role of cell‐free DNA in non‐invasive diagnosis of urinary tract infection

open access: yesUroPrecision, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 41-50, June 2024.
Abstract Urinary tract infection (UTI) constitutes a pervasive health concern. UTIs are dichotomously classified into upper and lower strata, and further categorized as either complicated or uncomplicated. Upper UTIs predominantly afflict the renal and ureteral domains, typified by conditions exemplified in pyelonephritis, whereas lower UTIs manifest ...
