Laboratory findings in symptomless clonorchiasis [PDF]
The duration of infection, frequency of eating raw fresh water fishes, and a series of liver function tests were studied in a group of 23 Korean symptomless cases with Clonorchis sinensis, and compared with those in a control group of uninfected persons.

Correlation between discharged worms and fecal egg counts in human clonorchiasis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Stool examination by counting eggs per gram of feces (EPGs) is the best method to estimate worm burden of Clonorchis sinensis in infected humans. The present study investigated a correlation between EPGs and worm burden in human clonorchiasis.

Genome-wide expression patterns associated with oncogenesis and sarcomatous transdifferentation of cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The molecular mechanisms of CC (cholangiocarcinoma) oncogenesis and progression are poorly understood. This study aimed to determine the genome-wide expression of genes related to CC oncogenesis and sarcomatous transdifferentiation.
