Clonorchiasis in China: Geospatial modeling of the population infected and at risk, based on national surveillance

open access: yesJournal of Infection
OBJECTIVES Clonorchiasis is highly endemic in China. The unavailability of fine-scale distribution of population with infection and at risk hinders the control.

Imaging diagnosis of clonorchiasis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2007
Among several diagnostic tools for clonorchiasis (Clonorchis sinensis infection), radiologic examinations are commonly used in clinical practices. During the 2 past decades, many reports regarding imaging findings of clonorchiasis were introduced. The basic imaging finding of clonorchiasis is diffuse dilatation of the peripheral intrahepatic bile ducts,

Empirical therapy for hepatic lesions in suspected clonorchiasis: a comparative efficacy analysis of Albendazole and Praziquantel [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundClonorchiasis frequently presents as intrahepatic space-occupying lesions, posing a diagnostic challenge due to the low sensitivity of fecal examination.

Current status of Clonorchis sinensis and clonorchiasis in Korea: epidemiological perspectives integrating the data from human and intermediate hosts

open access: yesParasitology, 2022
Abstract Clonorchis sinensis is a carcinogenic liver fluke that causes clonorchiasis in humans. Clonorchiasis is prevalent in East Asian countries, and approximately 15–20 million individuals are estimated to be infected with this fluke globally.

mNGS and IL-5: potential early diagnostic clues for clonorchiasis before eosinophil rise — a case report [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Clonorchiasis, caused by Clonorchis sinensis, often evades early diagnosis in non-endemic regions due to its nonspecific presentation and the delayed appearance of eosinophilia.

Clonorchiasis in Patients with Biliary and Pancreatic Diseases: Diagnosis and Risk Factors

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background Many epidemiological studies have investigated the risk factors for clonorchiasis, but endoscopic findings of this disease in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) have not been well characterized.

Praziquantel in clonorchiasis and opisthorchiasis. [PDF]

open access: yesTropenmedizin und Parasitologie, 1981
A single stool examination revealed pathogenic intestinal parasites in 462 (58%) of 796 vietnamese and cambodian refugees. 56 (7.0%) were infected with Clonorchis sinensis and/or Opisthorchis viverrini. These patients received Praziquantel in a dosage of 20 mg/kg bwt. p.day on 3 consecutive days. Parasitological controls were completed after 12 months.

Modeling the Transmission Dynamics of Clonorchiasis in Foshan, China

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Clonorchiasis, known as the Chinese liver fluke disease, is caused by Clonorchis sinensis infection with food-borne liver fluke, which is transmitted via snails to freshwater fish and then to human beings or other piscivorous mammals. Clonorchis sinensis

Identification and characterization of Clonorchis sinensis cathepsin B proteases in the pathogenesis of clonorchiasis

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Human clonorchiasis is a prevailing food-borne disease caused by Clonorchis sinensis infection. Functional characterizations of key molecules from C. sinensis could facilitate the intervention of C. sinensis associated diseases.

Genome‐wide exploration reveals distinctive northern and southern variants of Clonorchis sinensis in the Far East

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 833-843, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Clonorchis sinensis is a carcinogenic liver fluke that causes clonorchiasis—a neglected tropical disease (NTD) affecting ~35 million people worldwide. No vaccine is available, and chemotherapy relies on one anthelmintic, praziquantel. This parasite has a complex life history and is known to infect a range of species of intermediate (freshwater
