Parasitology Today, 1988
Mexico - the northernmost country of Latin America - has long been thought to have an unusually low prevalence of Chagas disease compared with other Latin American countries. This has seemed unusual because of the large number of vector species and subspecies reported from the country, and the social and ecological conditions that seem to parallel ...

Autoimmunity and Chagas’ Disease
1989The protozoan flagellate Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas’ disease and has been estimated to infect between 10 and 12 million people in Central and South America (WHO 1960). T. cruzi has a complex life cycle involving stages in both a vertebrate and an insect vector host, the reduviid or assassin bugs, members of the subfamily ...

Chagas-Krankheit und Chagas-Leiden
1972Die amerikanische Trypanosomose, verursacht durch das Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas, 1909), war ursprunglich eine auf Wirbellose (Triatominae) beschrankte Parasitose, die sich nach Einbeziehung von Vertebraten in den parasitaren Entwicklungscyclus auf zahlreiche Wirbeltierarten ausdehnte.

Chagas' Disease and Chagas' Syndromes: The Pathology of American Trypanosomiasis
1968Publisher Summary Chagas' disease-like all really great and important discoveries-has its own and very peculiar history, called by Magalhaes , a “tragicomedy, which embittered and destroyed the life of one of our greatest compatriots”. In this history it is useful to distinguish the following six periods. Chagas in 1908 discovered in the intestine of

AIDS Patient Care and STDs, 2000
Chagas' disease can reactivate in patients with AIDS and present as a brain mass lesion or an acute diffuse meningoencephalitis indistinguishable from other opportunistic infections or neoplastic processes, such as toxoplasma encephalitis or central nervous system (CNS) primary lymphoma.

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1976
Two different histological types of congenital Chagas disease are defined. In one type, parasites were seen within the skeletal and cardiac fibers, and in the other, they are found mostly within the cells of the reticuloendothelial system. The latter was often associated with parasitized giant-cells with a single, lobulated, hyperchromatic nucleus.
