Investigation of clusters of giardiasis using GIS and a spatial scan statistic

open access: yesInternational Journal of Health Geographics, 2004
Background Giardia lamblia is the most frequently identified human intestinal parasite in Canada with prevalence estimates of 4–10%. However, infection rates vary by geographical area and localized 'pockets' of high or low infection rates are thought to ...

Quantitative microbial risk assessment with microbial source tracking for enteric pathogens in southwest Wisconsin private wells

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Private wells supply drinking water for many households, and their contamination by fecal microbes presents a risk of acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI). Risk is thought to vary by contaminating fecal source, but specific associations with fecal source are unknown for most private wells in the United States. This study characterizes AGI risk

A bibliometric study of international scientific productivity in giardiasis covering the period 1971–2010

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2015
Introduction: Despite years of relative neglect, interest in Giardia infection seems to be recently growing, perhaps in part due to its inclusion into the World Health Organization’s Neglected Diseases Initiative since 2004. The purpose of this study was

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

The Role of Companion Animals as ‘Sentinels’ From the One Health Perspective

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
One Health emphasizes the interconnection of human, animal and environmental health. As emotional extensions of humans, companion dogs and cats can serve as sentinels, detecting hazards that can help protect human health from the One Health perspective. When symptoms appear in pets, owners should notice the changes that may pose risks to both human and

Evolutionary divergence and functional insights into the heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferase of Paramecium tetraurelia

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 1681-1707, March 2026.
Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit

Metronidazole and Giardia: In vitro viability assay under microaerobic conditions indicates a multifactorial basis for metronidazole treatment failure

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: Giardiasis, a worldwide intestinal infection caused by the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis, is treatable with metronidazole (MTZ). However, MTZ-refractory giardiasis is common.
