Burden and determinants of anaemia among in‐school young adolescents in Ethiopia, Sudan and Tanzania
Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView., 2023 ‐ We found a substantial burden of anaemia among urban in‐school young adolescents in Ethiopia, Sudan and Tanzania. ‐ The prevalence and adjusted risk of anaemia were higher among boys compared with girls. ‐ Anaemia risk among young adolescents was associated with multiple modifiable indices, including poor diet quality, food insecurity and ...

Parasites & Vectors, 2018 BackgroundThe red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is widely distributed in the world; in central Europe, it is the most numerous wild species of the family Canidae. It can play the role of a definitive host for many intestinal parasites, including zoonotic helminths.

General model of sex distribution, mating probability and egg production for macroparasites with polygamous mating system [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The reproductive habits of helminths are important for the study of the dynamics of their transmission. For populations of parasites distributed by Poisson or negative binomial models, these habits have already been studied. However, there are other statistical models that describe these populations, such as zero-inflated models, but where reproductive

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2021 Anthelmintic resistance (AR) has thus far only rarely been reported for intestinal helminths of dogs and cats, in contrast to parasites of livestock and horses.

Pathogens, 2020 The study investigated the presence of resistance to benzimidazoles in Haemonchus contortus helminths from ruminant species in Greece through the detection of the Phe/Tyr polymorphism in the amino acid at position 200 of the β-tubulin protein.

Pregnancy and helminth infections [PDF]
Parasite Immunology, 2014 SummaryIt has been proposed that helminth infection may be particularly detrimental during pregnancy, through adverse effects on maternal anaemia and on birth outcomes, and that anthelminthic treatment during pregnancy will therefore be particularly beneficial. However, the few treatment trials that have been conducted have given, but little support to

Mathematical model of mating probability and fertilized egg production in helminth parasites [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In the modeling of parasite transmission dynamics, understanding the reproductive characteristics of these parasites is crucial. This paper presents a mathematical model that explores the reproductive behavior of dioecious parasites and its impact on transmission dynamics.

Veterinary Integrative Sciences, 2023 Rodents are known as reservoirs of different zoonotic parasites. This study aimed to determine the occurrence of zoonotic helminths in rodents from different habitats in selected municipalities in Cotabato Province. A total of 120 rodents and shrews

PLoS Pathogens, 2018 Despite causing considerable damage to host tissue at the onset of parasitism, invasive helminths establish remarkably persistent infections in both animals and plants.
