Cryptosporidiosis and Filtration of Water from Loch Lomond, Scotland [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Previous evidence has suggested an association between consumption of unfiltered water from Loch Lomond, Scotland, and cryptosporidiosis. Before November 1999, this water had been only microstrained and disinfected with chlorine; however, since that time,

Cryptosporidiosis [PDF]

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2002
Cryptosporidiosis is a self-limited diarrheal disease that occurs in the community setting but can be chronic and potentially serious in immunocompromised patients. Community outbreaks are often associated with water-borne transmission. Cryptosporidium research has increased dramatically since the human disease was first recognized in 1976. The present

A comparison of risk factors for cryptosporidiosis and non-cryptosporidiosis diarrhoea: A case-case-control study in Ethiopian children. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
BackgroundCryptosporidiosis is a major cause of diarrhoea in young children in low-and-middle-income countries. New interventions should be informed by evidence pertaining to risk factors and their relative importance.

Therapeutic Effects of Matricaria chamomilla Extract in an Immunosuppressed Mouse Model of Cryptosporidiosis. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) extract significantly reduced oocyst shedding and intestinal lesions in immunosuppressed mice infected with Cryptosporidium parvum, while enhancing antioxidant defences (GPx, TAC). These findings suggest chamomile as a promising phytotherapeutic agent for cryptosporidiosis. ABSTRACT Background Cryptosporidiosis, caused

A One Health Molecular Investigation and Exploratory Epidemiological Analysis of Cryptosporidium spp. in A Shared Human-Animal Ecosystem. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
A One Health molecular investigation of Cryptosporidium across humans, animals and the environment revealed the circulation of multiple zoonotic species and subtypes within a shared ecosystem. Molecular characterisation and phylogenetic analysis highlighted transmission at the human–animal–environment interface. The findings emphasise the importance of

Evaluation of Next-Generation Sequencing Applied to Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis Epidemiological Study

Pathogens, 2022
Background. Nowadays, most of the C. parvum and C. hominis epidemiological studies are based on gp60 gene subtyping using the Sanger sequencing (SgS) method. Unfortunately, SgS presents the limitation of being unable to detect mixed infections.
