The epidemiology of infections with Giardia species and genotypes in well cared for dogs and cats in Germany

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Giardia is now considered the most common enteric parasite in well cared for dogs and cats in developed countries. The ecology, epidemiology and clinical impact of infections with this parasite in such animals is still not fully understood due

Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Risk Factors of Cryptosporidium spp. in HIV/AIDS Patients: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis (2017–2025)

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Cryptosporidium spp. is a major opportunistic pathogens in HIV/AIDS patients, contributing substantially to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite advances in HIV/AIDS management, the global burden, genetic diversity, and risk factors of cryptosporidiosis in this high‐risk group remain incompletely understood.

Blastocystis in a Liver Abscess: An Unusual Extraintestinal Location

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Blastocystis is a common anaerobic protist of uncertain pathogenicity that inhabits the human intestine. Rare cases reported in the literature suggest possible extraintestinal dissemination by unclear mechanisms. We followed a 43‐year‐old Peruvian woman presenting with low‐grade fever and gastrointestinal symptoms who was diagnosed with a liver abscess

In vitro and ex vivo evaluation of the anti-Giardia duodenalis activity of the supernatant of Slab51 (SivoMixx).

PLoS ONE, 2019
The effects on Giardia duodenalis of Slab51 probiotic supernatants were evaluated in vitro and ex vivo. In vitro, Slab51 (101 UFC) was cultured and the obtained supernatant was filtered, adjusted at pH 7, and added (100μl/ml) as such (Slab51 FS) or after

Genotyping of Giardia duodenalis in children in upper Egypt using assemblage- specific PCR technique.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Giardia duodenalis is a common gastrointestinal protozoan parasite, causing diarrheal illness in humans worldwide. Yet, the distribution of G. duodenalis genotypes among human patients and their clinical relevance remains controversial.

Detection and genetic characterization of Giardia duodenalis in pigs from large-scale farms in Xinjiang, China

Parasite, 2019
To study the presence of Giardia duodenalis in Xinjiang, northwest China, we collected 801 fecal specimens from seven large-scale pig farms and screened them using PCR targeting the SSU rRNA gene. Twenty-one (2.6%) of the specimens from five farms were G.
