Biotic Assembly of the Species of Triatomini (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) in the Mexican and South American Transition Zones

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To infer the biogeographic history of the Triatomini by evaluating how their species became part of the biogeographic transition zones of the New World. This group of blood‐feeding insects includes key vectors of Chagas disease. Understanding their dispersal and diversification over geological time may help elucidate the temporal dynamics ...

Nifurtimox Is Effective Against Neural Tumor Cells and Is Synergistic with Buthionine Sulfoximine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Children with aggressive neural tumors have poor survival rates and novel therapies are needed. Previous studies have identified nifurtimox and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) as effective agents in children with neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma.

A Novel Predictive Score to Identify the Necessity for Epicardial Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation: EPI‐VT‐Score

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
The novel EPI‐VT‐Score accurately predicts the need for epicardial VT ablation using simple clinical, echocardiographic and ECG variables, optimizing patient selection and procedural outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Epicardial ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation is a therapeutic option for drug‐refractory VT, particularly when endocardial ablation fails

Spatial Interpolation in Applied Insect Ecology: A Review, Including Guidelines and Datasets for Practical Use

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation represents a fundamental approach in applied insect ecology, offering insight into species distributions and supporting biodiversity analysis, pest management and disease vector mapping. Insects—including important pollinators—face escalating threats due to habitat loss, climate change and anthropogenic pressures. As data‐

Early detection of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in Chagas' disease

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Background Chagas' disease may cause left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and its early detection in asymptomatic patients would allow to stratify the risk and to optimize medical treatment.

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Continuing evidence of Chagas disease along the Texas-Mexico border.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
BackgroundChagas disease is a chronic parasitic infection that progresses to dilated cardiomyopathy in 30% of human cases. Public health efforts target diagnosing asymptomatic cases, as therapeutic efficacy diminishes as irreversible tissue damage ...

Chagas' disease of the colon

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1976
Abstract One hundred cases of chagasic megacolon operated upon in Bahia, Brazil, have been analysed. The principal theories of the pathological physiology of the disease are discussed. The pre- and postoperative radio-graphic features of the colon are presented, and the surgical treatment as well as the incidence of complications and ...
