Intestinal Physiology and Parasitic Diseases
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1982This paper reviews the major steps in alimentation, digestion, and absorption, which must be intact as a basis for normal nutrition, and discusses evidence relating parasitic infection in humans to effects on intestinal physiology. Parasites, with their ability to induce systemic toxicity and fever, to release active and toxic substances into the ...

Treatment of Intestinal Parasitic Disease
Southern Medical Journal, 1976Although improved sanitation in the United States has resulted in a general diminution in the prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections, some, such as enterobiasis, are not reduced by improved environmental or water sanitation and others, such as amebiasis and hookworm infection, persist in foci. Other infections, notably giardiasis, have increased

Parasitic diseases of the small intestinal tract
Baillière's Clinical Gastroenterology, 1987The epidemiology, clinical aspects, and treatment of human intestinal infections with Giardia, Cryptosporidium, coccidia and Strongyloides in industrialized countries are reviewed. In well-nourished and immunocompetent persons, inapparent infections or mild, transitory gastrointestinal upsets caused by these parasites are quite common.

[Intestinal parasitic diseases in children].
Bacteriologia, virusologia, parazitologia, epidemiologia (Bucharest, Romania : 1990), 2009To compare the incidence of intestinal parasitosis between children with residence in urban and rural areas: to compare the efficacy of parasitologic diagnostic methods.In our study we included two lots of children. The first lot consisted in 74 children from rural areas from which we collected 44 samples of feces and 55 samples for the "Scotch tape ...

Clinical trial methodology in intestinal parasitic diseases
Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1976The high prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections as an index of underdevelopment, especiaily in tropical countries, is related to poverty, poor housing, lack of sanitation, malnutrition, and ignorance. The effects are lowered work capacity, physical and mental retardation, leading to recurrences and exacerbations of the parasitism and ...

Small Intestinal Injury and Parasitic Diseases in AIDS
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1990To examine jejunal biopsies from patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), chronic diarrhea, and weight loss, and to correlate the presence of small intestinal injury with pathogens, histopathologic changes, and absorption.Prospective analysis of jejunal biopsies from 43 patients with AIDS, 10 patients with AIDS-related complex, and ...

Modern Treatment of Common Intestinal Parasitic Diseases
Postgraduate Medicine, 1960Approximately 40 million Americans harbor parasites at the present time. Involvement may be so slight that no symptoms are clinically evident, or the parasite may produce symptoms typical of severe intestinal disease.The author discusses therapeutic agents and regimens he has found to be effective in treating amebiasis, giardiasis, intestinal ...

Treatment and prevention of intestinal parasite–associated disease
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2003Since 1917, only 11 new endoparasiticides have been developed for the horse, of which five chemical classes are in common use. The selection pressure of frequent administration of deworming doses for parasite control programs has been associated with the development of resistance of small strongyle parasites to the effects of benzimidazoles and ...

Intestinal Parasites and Immunomodulation in Neuroinflammatory Disease
2016Some intestinal parasites are major human pathogens, and deworming is rightly advocated to prevent helminth-induced morbidity. Actual understanding of the immunoregulatory responses induced by helminths, in combination with epidemiological and animal studies, suggests however that intestinal worms may have therapeutic potential in autoimmune diseases ...
