Taeniid cestodes in a wolf pack living in a highly anthropic hilly agro-ecosystem

open access: yesParasite, 2021
The Italian wolf population in human-modified landscapes has increased greatly in the last few decades. Anthropisation increases the risk of transmission of many zoonotic infections and in this context, control of taeniid cestode species needs to be ...

Unsolved Mystery of Synchronous Metastatic Adenocarcinoma and Echinococcus Cystic Infection, a Major Break Through in Clinical Oncology: A Case Report

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2020
Echinococcus cystic infection is a zoonotic infection caused by the larval stage of cestode species belonging to the genus Echinococcus. Through the modulation of the immune system by this parasite, there is an established link of this infection with the

Helminths in the gastrointestinal tract 1 as modulators of immunity and pathology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Helminth parasites are highly prevalent in many low- and middle-income countries, in which inflammatory bowel disease and other immunopathologies are less frequent than in the developed world.

Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentation in the Great Blue Hole (Lighthouse Reef, Belize): Results from a 30 m long core

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes

Pathology associated with larval Eustrongylides sp. (Nematoda: Dioctophymatoidea) infection in Galaxias maculatus (Actinopterygii: Galaxiidae) from Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Helminth infections within tissues tend to be subjected to a host response that can include encapsulation and melanization to isolate the parasite. The effectiveness of this response depends on the host species. During a survey of parasites of the native

Performance of Cerrado lizards: a test of the center–periphery hypothesis

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The center–periphery hypothesis (CPH) states that species' demographic performance declines from the center towards the periphery of their geographic range due to increasingly suboptimal environmental conditions. We tested the predictions under the CPH using two lizard lineages with different activity patterns and distributions, taking lizard body ...

Helminth gut parasites of black grouse Lyrurus tetrix in northern England, their impact on productivity and possible sources of infection

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Black grouse Lyrurus tetrix declines continue throughout much of temperate Europe, following habitat loss and population isolation, associated with reduced productivity. In northern England, only 1437 lekking males remained in 2014, genetically isolated from other UK populations, and typified by low productivity but high adult survival.

Epidemiological Dynamics of a Visually Apparent Disease: Camera Trapping and Machine‐Learning Applied to Rumpwear in the Common Brushtail Possum

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Visually apparent diseases are valuable for investigating and monitoring the occurrence and prevalence of pathogens in wildlife populations through passive monitoring methods like camera trapping. Rumpwear is characterized by visible signs of hair breakage and damage on the lumbosacral region of common brushtail possums.
