Zoonotic Ectoparasites Infesting Commensal Invasive Murid Rodents

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases
Rodents are associated with the spread of deadly zoonotic and emerging infectious diseases. Their widespread distribution is strongly linked to their ability to thrive in human-altered environments with access to food and shelter. Thus, humans are exposed to zoonotic agents that can spread and infect them directly and indirectly.

Mapping the Ectoparasitic Landscape in Non-Descriptive Village Chickens of Central Bangladesh: Prevalence, Intensity, and Associated Risk Factors

Journal of Agricultural Sciences
Purpose: Ectoparasitic infestations pose a major threat to non-descriptive village chickens (NDVCs) and could result in economic losses. However, systematic data regarding the ectoparasitic burden on NDVCs in central Bangladesh remain limited. Therefore,

Ectoparasites: Tick Infestation

Most of the domesticated birds are susceptible to a wide range of ectoparasites like flies, fleas, lice, ticks, and mites. Ectoparasites besides causing direct injuries with skin-associated lesions, irritation, and anemia act as vectors with a significant impact on the transmission of a variety of pathogens.

The diagnosis and control of ectoparasite infestation

1997
This chapter covers the diagnosis and treatment of ectoparasite infestation and associated dermatoses of domestic animals. It includes discussion of ectoparasite control and the more widely used types of ectoparasiticides, but not a comprehensive list of all ectoparasiticides available worldwide.

Ectoparasites infesting dogs and cats in Bishoftu, central Oromia, Ethiopia

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2019
A total of 200 dogs and 137 cats were examined for the presence of fleas, ticks and lice in Bishoftu, central Oromia, Ethiopia from September 2009 through April 2010. At least one ectoparasite species was found on 97% (194/200) of the dogs and 90.5% (124/137) of the cats. On dogs, fleas (Ctenocephalides felis (95%), Pulex irritans (20.5%), Echidnophaga

Immunomodulation of host responses to ectoparasite infestation – an overview

Veterinary Parasitology, 1984
Immune reactivity stimulated by ectoparasites and other arthropods has received increased attention in recent years. It is clear that a broad range of host responses are elicited, and immune effector mechanisms appear to be active in limiting infestation with blood-feeding arthropods. Host immune responsiveness appears to be altered as a consequence of

[Delusional ectoparasitic infestation in multiple system atrophy].

Der Nervenarzt, 2002
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a neurodegenerative disease of unclear etiology and pathogenesis. Clinically, there are combinations of extrapyramidal, cerebellar, pyramidal and autonomic dysfunctions. Diagnosis is sorted into different categories according to criteria.

Group-Living and Infestation by Ectoparasites in Passerines

The Condor, 1991
Using data from an 1 l-year field study, I determined whether group-living passerine species showed greater infestation by contact-transmitted ectoparasites (feather mites) than sympatric, solitary species. Differences in infestation by mobile hippoboscid flies between group-living and solitary passerine species were also examined. Among the 45 species

Ectoparasitic infestation of the lashes.

Journal of the American Optometric Association, 1985
Phthirus pubis, commonly known as the crab louse, has as its habitat the pubic and inguinal regions of the body. Transfer between hosts is most commonly a result of sexual contact. On occasion, Phthirus pubis will leave its usual seat of predilection and infest other hair-bearing body parts.

Ectoparasitic Infestation.

Adolescent medicine (Philadelphia, Pa.)
The author considers the two primary ectoparasitic infections of the genital region in young men: scabies and pediculosis pubis. In view of the widely held perception that poor hygiene is associated with these parasites, the need for attention to the patient's emotional state is stressed.
