Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis. [PDF]

Trop Med Int Health
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Autochthonous Outbreak and Expansion of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis, Uruguay [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
We report an outbreak of canine visceral leishmaniasis in Uruguay. Blood specimens from 11/45 dogs tested positive for Leishmania spp. Specimens of Lutzomyia longipalpis sand flies were captured; typing revealed Leishmania infantum. Our findings document an expansion of visceral leishmaniasis to southern South America and risk for vectorborne ...

Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis in Sicily [PDF]

Military Medicine, 2000
The Sicilian province of Catania is an active foci for human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the Mediterranean area. Approximately 10 to 15 cases of VL are diagnosed via hospital admissions each year in this community. Recently, an increase in VL case reporting by Sicilian physicians was noted, with 38 and 37 VL cases in 1996 and 1997, respectively ...

Interstitial pneumonitis in canine visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1986
Forty-one naturally infected dogs with visceral leishmaniasis from an urban area of Corumbá (Mato Grosso do Sul-BRAZIL) were studied and three types of lung involvement due to visceral leishmaniasis were characterized; a cellular, a cellular-fibrotic and a fibrotic type. These types seem to represent a sequential evolutive proce'as.

Splenic Nodules: Canine Visceral leishmaniasis? [PDF]

Acta Scientiae Veterinariae, 2021
Background: Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is a parasitic disease of high lethality caused by the protozoan Leishmania infantum in Brazil and is often related to splenomegaly. However, splenic nodules in dogs, although frequent, have not previously been reported as associated with CVL, but with neoplastic diseases.
