Epidemiology and clinical features of soil-transmitted helminths
Tropical Parasitology, 2017Soil-transmitted helminths (STH) consist of Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworm (Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). It affects nearly 1.7 billion people globally in which Ascaris contributes nearly 1.2 billion cases.

Trends in Parasitology, 2009
By definition, parasites harm their hosts. Yet substantial evidence from animal models of human disease support the hypothesis that infection with helminths can suppress the development of other maladies. Here, the view is presented that assessment of the immunophysiological response to helminths could identify that infection with specific parasites ...

Eradication of helminthic infections
Mathematical Biosciences, 1993The eradication of helminthic infections described by models of the Nåsell-Hirsch type is investigated. Simple criteria are proposed for comparing the efficiency of different modes of eradication.

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) As our ability to recognise and diagnose human disease caused by helminth parasites has improved, so our understanding of the epidemiology and clinical manifestations of these diseases has improved.

Helminths, immunology and equations
Parasitology Today, 1991Although the immune system is becoming better characterized, it is by no means becoming easier to predict the outcome of activation given the many potential influences upon the ultimate expression of an immune response. In this article, Nicky Schweitzer and Roy Anderson investigate the application of mathematics to this highly nonlinear system, and ...

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses development of vaccines against helminth parasites. Progress toward the development of vaccines against helminth parasites has been disappointing. In some respects, this is surprising as the first commercial vaccine against a helminth infection, parasitic bronchitis of cattle, was introduced nearly 30 years ago,

Neuropeptide Physiology in Helminths
2010Parasitic worms come from two distinct, distant phyla, Nematoda (roundworms) and Platyhelminthes (flatworms). The nervous systems of worms from both phyla are replete with neuropeptides and there is ample physiological evidence that these neuropeptides control vital aspects of worm biology.

Pathogenesis of helminths in equines
Veterinary Parasitology, 1985This review summarizes information on the clinical signs, gross and microscopic lesions associated with nematode and cestode infections and discusses the development of these conditions in the equine host.

Helminths: Comparison of their rhodoquinone
Experimental Parasitology, 1973Abstract A rhodoquinone (RQ) has been isolated from Stephanurus dentatus and has been shown to be identical with RQ-9 from Ascaris lumbricoides var. suis (A. suum) . The ratio of RQ/mg N is fairly constant among larval, juvenile, and adult forms of S. dentatus with an average value of 1.63 μg/mg N. A Chromatographie survey found RQ in all eleven
