Hepatic Fascioliasis Complicated by Multisite Venous Thromboembolism: A Rare Association and Implications for Parasite‐Associated Coagulopathy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Hepatic fascioliasis is a trematode flatworm infection caused by Fasciola hepatica or Fasciola gigantica. Its association with venous thrombosis is exceedingly rare and can lead to significant morbidity when complicated by such conditions. Here, we report a rare case of hepatic fascioliasis complicated by multisite venous thromboembolism (VTE),

Haematobiochemical Alterations and Pathological Lesions Induced by Fasciolosis in Slaughtered Cattle at Gondar ELFORA Abattoir, Northwest Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
Haematobiochemical findings showed lower mean values for haemoglobin (HGB), haematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), total erythrocyte count (TEC), lymphocytes, monocytes, total protein, albumin and glucose. Conversely, they had higher mean values for mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), total leukocyte count (TLC), neutrophils ...

Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.

Effect of Host Species on Hatchability of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica Eggs from Sheep and Cattle

Journal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2020
Introduction: Successful development of free-living stages of parasitic helminths depends on larva ability to survive, develop, and hatch. In this study, we aimed to study the host role in the hatching process of Fasciola species.

In Vitro Effects of Vanadate Erbium/Silver Oxide (ErVO4/AgO) and Vanadate Iron/Silver Oxide (FeVO4/AgO) Nanoparticles on the Adult of Fasciola hepatica

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Fascioliasis is a common hepatic parasitic disease that is caused by Fasciola, resulting in significant economic losses by reducing production and consigning viscera in animals. Currently, there is little research regarding the impact of chemical compounds on the ultrastructure and motility of adult F. hepatica.

Evaluating the In Vitro Anthelmintic Activity of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) Against the Adult Stages of Fasciola hepatica

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
Resistance to currently deployed flukicide is a growing health problem. This study evaluated the in vitro anthelmintic activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) at 0.05, 0.10 and 0.12 mg/mL against Fasciola hepatica. The fastest mortality and paralysis rates of flukes were obtained at 0.12 mg/mL of ZnO‐NPs. Furthermore, SEM results showed complete
