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,

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

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.

Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Zoonotic Transmission Potential of Cryptosporidium spp. in Snakes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study provides the first global systematic synthesis of Cryptosporidium spp. infection in snakes. A pooled prevalence of 12.6% was identified, with higher occurrence in captive‐associated populations than in wild snakes. Eight Cryptosporidium species, including multiple zoonotic taxa, were reported, underscoring the potential role of snakes within

Cryptosporidiosis [PDF]

Abstract There are up to 17 species of Cryptosporidium that cause human infection, but most human cases are caused by Cryptosporidium hominis (mainly found in humans) and Cryptosporidium parvum (found in humans and animals). C. parvum is a widely (internationally) distributed zoonotic pathogen, and a major cause of diarrhoeal disease ...

From Diagnostic Challenge to Clinical Success: Rapid Multiplex PCR Identification of Cryptosporidium in HIV‐Associated Refractory Diarrhea: A Case Report [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Cryptosporidiosis remains a challenge in people with HIV despite its decreased incidence in developed countries. We report a case of severe diarrhea in a person with HIV where Gram stain findings prioritized cryptosporidium in the differential diagnosis.

Prevalence and Molecular Characterisation of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis in Equines in Algeria [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This cross‐sectional study reports the prevalence and molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis in Algerian equines. C. equi and C. hominis were detected for the first time in Algerian horses and donkeys, respectively, and equines are identified as potential sources of zoonotic C. parvum subtypes.
