Canine Leishmaniasis in an Endemic Area for Human Leishmaniasis in Nicaragua. [PDF]
J Trop Med, 2022 In this study, the frequency of canines infected with Leishmania spp. in an area endemic to leishmaniasis in humans was determined. A descriptive pilot study was conducted between the months of October and December 2020 on dogs from Rota, a community in the municipality of León, which included 45 specimens from the peridomestic area.

Topical insecticides control Leishmania reservoir dogs [PDF]
, 2002 Canids and domestic dogs are reservoir hosts of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL) caused by Leishmania infantum. Hence, one of the approaches to reduce the incidence of human ZVL is to cull infected dogs (e.g >850 000 dogs are screened per year with ...

Vaccines for Canine Leishmaniasis [PDF]
Advances in Preventive Medicine, 2014 Leishmania infantumis the obligatory intracellular parasite of mammalian macrophages and causes zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL). The presence of infected dogs as the main reservoir host of ZVL is regarded as the most important potential risk for human infection.

Canine cutaneous leishmaniasis [PDF]
Journal of Parasitic Diseases, 2014 Canine cutaneous leishmaniasis (CCL) is a significant veterinary problem. Infected dogs also serve as parasite reservoirs and contribute to human transmission of cutaneous leishmaniasis. Histologically, the lesions were nodular to diffuse interstitial granulomatous dermatitis with histiocytic pseudorosettes together with numerous amastigotes within ...

Topical insecticide treatments to protect dogs from sand fly vectors of leishmaniasis. [PDF]
, 2001 We compared the susceptibility of sand fly vectors to four topical insecticide treatments applied to domestic dogs, a reservoir of human leishmaniasis. Dogs were exposed to sand flies pretreatment and at 1 week, 1 month, and 2 months posttreatment.

Predicting the distribution of canine leishmaniasis in western Europe based on environmental variables. [PDF]
, 2011 The domestic dog is the reservoir host of Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis endemic in Mediterranean Europe. Targeted control requires predictive risk maps of canine leishmaniasis (CanL), which are now explored ...

Proteomic analysis in canine leishmaniasis [PDF]
Veterinary Research Communications, 2010 The aim of this study was to perform a proteomic analysis on serum of dogs naturally infected with Leishmania parasite. Sera from 24 dogs, n. 8 with high IFAT titre of anti-Leishmania antibodies (>or= 1:640), n. 8 with uncertain titre (= 1:40), and n. 8 with IFAT negative were used.
