Effectiveness and safety of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging, 2022
Background Microwave ablation (MWA) is a popular therapy for liver malignant tumor in recent years. Few studies have been conducted on its use in the treatment of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE).

Improved serodiagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis of humans using an in vitro-produced Echinococcus multilocularis antigen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Serology is an important tool for the diagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) in humans. In order to improve serodiagnostic performance, we have developed an in vitro-produced Echinococcus mulilocularis metacestode vesicle fluid (EmVF) antigen for ...

The Global Burden of Alveolar Echinococcosis

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
BACKGROUND: Human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is known to be common in certain rural communities in China whilst it is generally rare and sporadic elsewhere. The objective of this study was to provide a first estimate of the global incidence of this disease by country. The second objective was to estimate the global disease burden using age and gender

Retrospective Cross‐Sectional Study of Occupational Infection Risk With Zoonotic Pathogens in Austrian Veterinary Practitioners in the Year 2022

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
• Vaccination rates against rabies and TBEV and accordingly the respective seroprevalence rates exceed 90% among Austrian veterinary practitioners. • The prevalence of antibodies against HEV and the colonisation with MRSA increases with the age of the study participants from 6.2%/6.2% in the youngest age group to 23.3%/21.9% in the oldest group. • MRSA

Progress on the development of rapid diagnostic tests for foodborne neglected zoonotic helminthiases : a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Foodborne Neglected Zoonotic Helminths (FNZH) are parasites of both economic and public health importance. They include Taenia solium, Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato, Echinococcus multilocularis and Foodborne trematodes (FBT).

eComment. Alveolar echinococcosis of the lung [PDF]

open access: yesInteractive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2013
We read with great interest Karaman et al.'s rare case concerning lung infection with Echinococcus alveolaris [1]. We would like to highlight two points concerning the conservative treatment and imaging characteristics of alveolar echinococcosis (AE). AE is a severe disease, with a mortality of over 90% in untreated patients.

Spatiotemporal Transcriptomic Profiling Reveals the Dynamic Immunological Landscape of Alveolar Echinococcosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 18, May 15, 2025.
An unprecedented high‐resolution spatial atlas of the E. multilocularis infection foci is obtained, revealing the dynamic functions of neutrophils, Spp1+ macrophages, and fibroblasts during disease progression. The transition of parasite control strategy from “active killing” to “negative segregation” by the host may provide instructive insights into ...
