The genetic diversity of Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan agent of Chagas disease, is widely recognized. At present, T. cruzi is partitioned into seven discrete typing units (DTUs), TcI-TcVI and Tcbat.

Carlos Chagas and Chagas' Disease
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1977Few medical eponyms deserve perpetuation. Their origin often is obscure, their validity dubious, and the honor (if it be an honor) frequently undeserved. Not so for Chagas' disease. The reason American trypanosomiasis is better known throughout the world by its eponym is recorded in these words of Miguel Couto (who was described as the best Brazilian ...

Chagas disease is an independent predictor of stroke and death in a cohort of heart failure patients
International Journal of Stroke, 2021Background and Aims Chagas disease is a common cause of heart failure (HF) and death in developing countries. Although stroke is known to occur in these patients, an accurate estimate of stroke incidence is lacking. We aimed to determine the incidence of

Trypanocidal treatment of Chagas disease.
Enfermedades Infecciosas y Microbiologia Clinica, 2020Chagas disease is a neglected parasitosis caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. This infection is present in most Latin American countries, although, due to migratory movements, it is a growing cause for concern in non-endemic countries ...

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
Chagas' disease is one of the most important public health problems in South America and Mexico. Migrations from rural areas into urban zones have contributed to the spread of the disease. The main targets of the disease within the body are the heart, the alimentary tract, and the nervous system.

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.

Chagas disease as example of a reemerging parasite.
Seminars in diagnostic pathology, 2019Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan that causes Chagas disease, is primarily transmitted by three main Triatomine vectors in endemic areas. However, the infection has become a potential emerging disease because the vector is found in non-endemic areas ...

American trypanosomiasis and its etiologic agent Trypanosoma cruzi were first described by Carlos Chagas in 1909.12 Chagas single-handedly characterized this new disease in all of its aspects by first discovering the causative agent and its vector and then seeking out and describing human cases of infection ...

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.
