APMIS, Volume 133, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.ABSTRACT We report a case of imported Clonorchis sinensis infection under the modality of “visiting friends and relatives.” Clonorchis was not diagnosed initially, and a second stool sample was necessary. It is important that health personnel collect detailed information from the patient and be trained in parasitological diagnosis of imported ...
