Visceral leishmaniasis: a global overview
Journal of Global Health Science, 2020 The leishmaniases are protozoan infections that are among the neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). Over one billion people are at risk of these diseases in virtually all continents. These diseases debilitate large numbers of people, keeping them from full,

Leishmaniasis in Germany [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 In 2000, a reference center was created to systematically record leishmaniases in Germany. We analyzed 58 cases of leishmaniases imported during a 2-year period. These findings will serve as a baseline for the sandfly vector's anticipated northward move because of global warming and as an advisory for immunocompromised persons traveling to ...

Transient superdiffusion and long-range correlations in the motility patterns of trypanosomatid flagellate protozoa [PDF]
PLoS ONE 11(3): e0152092 (2016), 2016 We report on a diffusive analysis of the motion of flagellate protozoa species. These parasites are the etiological agents of neglected tropical diseases: leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania braziliensis, African sleeping sickness caused by Trypanosoma brucei, and Chagas disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi.

Vaccination with Leishmania mexicana LPG induces PD-1 in CD8+ and PD-L2 in macrophages thereby suppressing the immune response: A model to assess vaccine efficacy [PDF]
Vaccine Volume 32, Issue 11, 5 March 2014, Pages 1259-1265, 2019 Leishmania lipophosphoglycan is a molecule that has been used as a vaccine candidate, with contradictory results. Since unsuccessful protection could be related to suppressed T cell responses, we analyzed the expression of inhibitory receptor PD-1 in CD8+ and CD4+ lymphocytes and it is ligand PD-L2 in macrophages of BALB/c mice immunized with various ...

Grenander--Stone estimator: stacked constrained estimation of a discrete distribution over a general directed acyclic graph [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In this paper we integrate isotonic regression with Stone's cross-validation-based method to estimate a distribution with a general countable support with a partial order relation defined on it. We prove that the estimator is strongly consistent for any underlying distribution, derive its rate of convergence, and in the case of one-dimensional support ...

Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2019 Background: Pentavalent antimonials such as meglumine antimoniate (MA, Glucantime), are the first-line treatment against leishmaniasis, but at present, they have basically lost their efficacy. This study was aimed to explore epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate (
