Prevalence, risk factors and molecular identification of paramphistomid species in sheep from a Spanish endemic area [PDF]

Irish Veterinary Journal
Background Paramphistomids are ruminal trematodes that cause important losses in tropical and subtropical regions. However, their presence in Europe has increased significantly in recent decades.

A Study into the Identity, Patterns of Infection and Potential Pathological Effects of Rumen Fluke and the Frequency of Co-Infections with Liver Fluke in Cattle and Sheep

Ruminants, 2023
Rumen fluke (RF) are trematode parasites that have increased in prevalence within European ruminant livestock since the 1990s. Morbidity and mortality can result from the development of juvenile flukes in the duodenum, however, evidence for significant ...

Assessing the microbiota of the snail intermediate host of trematodes, Galba truncatula [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background The microbiome is known to play key roles in health and disease, including host susceptibility to parasite infections. The freshwater snail Galba truncatula is the intermediate host for many trematode species, including the liver and rumen ...

Prevalence of Helminths in Small Ruminant Farms and Evaluation of Control Practices Used to Counter Anthelmintic Resistance in Southern Italy [PDF]

Pathogens
Anthelmintic resistance in small ruminants is a serious worldwide problem. To reduce their spread, it is essential to know the prevalence of helminths on farms and the control practices adopted.

Environmental influences on the distribution and ecology of the fluke intermediate host Galba truncatula: a systematic review [PDF]

Parasitology
Galba truncatula is one of the most distributed intermediate hosts of Fasciola hepatica across Europe, North Africa and South America. Therefore, understanding the environmental preferences of this species is vital for developing control strategies for ...

Detoxome Capacity of the Adult Rumen Fluke Calicophoron daubneyi Extends into Its Secreted Extracellular Vesicles. [PDF]

J Proteome Res
Helminth parasites have long adapted to survive hostile host environments and can likely adapt against the chemical anthelmintic challenge. One proposed adaptation route is via Phase I and II xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (XMEs). For successful Helminth pharmacotherapy discovery programs, a working understanding of Helminth-derived chemical ...

Transmission of Calicophoron daubneyi and Fasciola hepatica in Galicia (Spain): Temporal follow-up in the intermediate and definitive hosts. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors, 2016
Paramphistomosis caused by Calicophoron daubneyi and fasciolosis caused by Fasciola hepatica are common parasitic diseases of livestock animals. Transmission of the diseases depends on the presence of intermediate hosts, i.e. freshwater gastropods such as lymnaeids.

Study on Cattle Trematodiasis and Related Risk Factors in Damot Sore District, Wolaita Zone, Southern Ethiopia

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Trematodes are chronic, debilitating diseases in livestock, causing significant economic losses worldwide. From mid‐December 2021 to May 2022, a cross‐sectional study was carried out in the Damot Sore District to estimate the prevalence of trematode infections in cattle and associated risk factors.

Optimized conditions for thein vitroexcystment ofCalicophoron daubneyimetacercariae [PDF]

Parasitology, 2017
AbstractParamphistomosis, caused byCalicophoron daubneyi, is an emerging infection of ruminants throughout Western Europe. Despite its prevalence, many questions remain regarding the basic biology of this parasite and how it interacts with its host. Consequently, there is a need to develop methods to studyC.
