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

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 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-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.

American Trypanosomiasis (Chagas' Disease)
Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1994Gastrointestinal dysfunction is a major problem for many patients with chronic Chagas' disease, as are cardiac dysrhythmias and cardiomyopathy. The underlying anatomic abnormality in these patients is a denervation of the gastrointestinal tract. This process of nerve destruction usually develops insidiously over many years, and it is highly variable in
