Molecular evidence of a high prevalence of Opisthorchis viverrini infection in an endemic community in Sakon Nakhon Province, northeastern Thailand [PDF]

Tropical Medicine and Health
Background Opisthorchiasis caused by Opisthorchis viverrini infection is a major public health concern in Thailand. Despite decades of surveillance and control efforts, accurately estimating the true prevalence of O. viverrini remains a challenge.

Hight prevalent of Opisthorchis viverrini infection and coincident Haplorchis metacercariae in cyprinid fishes in upper northeastern region of Thailand [PDF]

Parasite Epidemiology and Control
Cyprinid fishes are commonly acted as second intermediate hosts of Opisthorchis viverrini and Haplorchis spp. This research investigated the prevalence and intensity of both parasites in cyprinid species. This process is regularly used as a guideline for

Inflammatory Responses to Opisthorchis viverrini Infection in Animal Models: A comparison between susceptible and non-susceptible hosts in different anatomical locations [PDF]

Open Veterinary Journal
Background: Inflammation caused by Opisthorchis viverrini infection increases the risk of cholangitis, cholecystitis, and lead to bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma or CCA). However, only certain infected individuals are susceptible to CCA, suggesting
