Species Diversity and Geographical Distribution of Poultry Ascaridids: A Scoping Review. [PDF]

J Parasitol Res
Poultry nematodes, particularly Ascaridid species, significantly affect avian health and productivity and are widely distributed globally. Yet despite over 80% of poultry in developing countries being raised under extensive rearing systems, knowledge on infection risks posed by different poultry nematodes remains limited.

Zoonotic Parasites in Marmosets (Callithrix Spp.) From Southern Brazil: Insights From a One Health Perspective. [PDF]

J Med Primatol
ABSTRACT Background Currently, six species of Callithrix are frequently observed in anthropized and degraded environments in different regions of Brazil. This occupation favors interactions with humans and increases the risk of infection by parasites with zoonotic potential.

Comparative Analysis of Gut Microbiomes in Parasitic Roundworms Reveals Phylogeny-Associated Community Structure and Functional Adaptation. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Roundworm nematodes are globally distributed zoonotic parasites that inhabit the intestinal tract of various mammals. Although these parasites reside in the host’s guts, their own intestinal ecosystems remain poorly understood. Recent evidence suggests that helminths may harbor distinct gut microbiomes that contribute to their physiology and host ...

Seasonal changes in the parasite prevalence of a small Malagasy lemur species (Lepilemur edwardsi)

Integrative Zoology, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 427-439, May 2023., 2023
The folivorous Malagasy primate Lepilemur edwardsi living in the dry deciduous forests of western Madagascar shows a seasonal increase of intestinal parasite prevalence from the wet to the dry season. The increase in intestinal parasites is presumably caused by a decrease in resource availability and quality in the habitat of L. edwardsi. Ectoparasite (

Gastric Anisakiasis Masquerading as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Anisakiasis of the gastrointestinal tract is caused by the consumption of raw or undercooked seafood infected with Anisakis larvae. Penetration of Anisakis larvae into the gastrointestinal mucosa leads to severe epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting, usually within hours of ingestion of the parasite. Suspicion for gastrointestinal Anisakiasis should be

Infection ofHexametra angusticaecoidesChabaud & Brygoo, 1960 (Nematoda: Ascarididae) in a population of captive crested geckoes,Correlophus ciliatusGuichenot (Reptilia: Diplodactylidae)

Parasitology, 2020
AbstractHere we report on the infection of captive crested geckosCorrelophus ciliatusGuichenot (Reptilia: Diplodactylidae), with adults of the ascaridoid nematode,Hexametra angusticaecoidesChabaud & Brygoo, 1960 (Ascarididae). A population of captive crested geckoes became ill and died within a short period of time.

Natural infection in Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocercus) by Lagochilascaris major Leiper, 1910 (Nematoda: Ascarididae) in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Parasitology Research, 2018
Lagochilascariosis is an emerging parasitic disease limited to the American continent, caused by nematodes of the genus Lagochilascaris. Its life cycle is heteroxenous, involving natural definitive hosts (wild carnivores), accidental hosts (domestic carnivores and humans), and intermediate hosts (rodents).

Common Symptoms from an Uncommon Infection: Gastrointestinal Anisakiasis

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Clinicians can be forgiven for thinking of anisakiasis as a rare condition low in the differential diagnosis of abdominal pain. Gastrointestinal anisakiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by consumption of raw or undercooked seafood infected with nematodes of the genus Anisakis.
