In addition to the conditions discussed in other chapters in this section, renal involvement has been described in patients with other infections. These infections are usually encountered in the developing countries, especially of the tropical zone. The tropical environment is conducive to growth of a variety of life forms including infection-causing ...

Pathophysiology of nematode infections
International Journal for Parasitology, 1987Abstract Gastrointestinal nematodes are a major cause of reduced productivity in ruminants. An important feature of such infections is reduced feed intake, the aetiology of which remains uncertain. Alterations in gastrointestinal motility and digesta flow may be partially responsible for the inappetance as well as being associated with the ...

Diagnosis of human nematode infections
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2013Many hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are infected by nematodes found in the intestine or tissues with a high prevalence in developing countries. Despite their frequency and morbidity, these infections, which may affect migrants and travelers, remain difficult to diagnosis even in developed countries.

Association between urticaria and nematode infections [PDF]
Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 2018 The association between parasites and urticaria was first suggested in the last century. A wide range, 0-75.4%, of the prevalence of parasitic infection has been reported with chronic urticaria (CU). Moreover, urticaria may be detected in patients with parasitosis.

Many nematodes whose definitive hosts are various animals other than humans can infect humans, but are icapable of maturing to adult parasites in human body and thus completing their life cycles. Two important human diseases, cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) and visceral larva migrans (VLM), are a result of such aberrant infections with larval nematodes ...

Intestinal nematode infections
1992Parasitic nematodes are complex metazoan organisms in which the adult, reproductive forms are long-lived. Individual worms may remain alive throughout much of the childhood of a host. To them, the gut mucosa is both a refuge and a source of sustenance, and yet it would be astonishing if they elicited no immune response or inflammation from the host ...

Nematode Infections of Man: Intestinal Infections
1986In most underdeveloped regions of the world, especially the tropical areas, intestinal helminthiases present high prevalence rates, similar to those found a half-century ago (Botero, 1981). The varied and sometimes important symptomatology caused by these worms, the lowering of work efficiency, and the deterioration of nutritional status are ...

Iridoviruses Infecting Terrestrial Isopods and Nematodes
1985Iridoviruses of terrestrial isopods (IIV) were first described in detail in 1980 (Federici 1980; Cole and Morris 1980) although the distinct purple to blue iridescent coloration produced in infected individuals had been noticed by many individuals long before.

Nematode Infections of Man: Extraintestinal Infections
1986Despite a plethora of anthelmintics active against the nematodes parasitizing the human gut, as illustrated in Chapter 12, far fewer drugs have been or can be used in the treatment of those nematodes that parasitize other organs. This chapter deals with the chemotherapy of diseases caused by such nematodes.
