Parasitism

2008
Parasitism is a pervasive phenomenon in nature involving, either as hosts or as parasites, virtually all species on Earth. By definition, parasites are costly for their hosts as they divert resources for their growth, reproduction, and survival with no rewards for the hosts.

Parasites and Parasitic Diseases

2018
Parasitism is a form of existence. Parasitism means “life of an organism (‘parasite’) at the expense of another organism (host)”. If the profit is on both sides, this is called symbiosis. The host may be damaged but not necessarily. Parasites are therefore mono- or multicellular organisms.

Leishmania — A Parasitized Parasite

New England Journal of Medicine, 2011
Leishmaniasis can be visceral and deadly or restricted to a cutaneous lesion. A particularly severe form of disease is caused by an unregulated inflammatory response. A recent study suggests that this response may be triggered by a virus that infects the Leishmania parasite.

Parasitization of the Parasite

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1973
ABSTRACT To the Editor.— After I had read Dr. Vincent de Paul Lynch's comments to a letter on parasite transmission by Dr. Paul Abrahm (222:1309, 1972), I felt impelled to add a few of my comments.

Biliary Parasites

Digestive Surgery, 1998
Parasitic diseases of the biliary tract occur frequently in tropical and subtropical areas and cause high morbidity and mortality. In general, neither the clinical presentation nor the general laboratory findings are sufficiently unique to raise the possibility of a parasitic biliary infestation in the mind of the surgeon. Once considered, however, the

Parasite of a Parasite

2018
For a journal like ebr, long devoted to peer-to-peer reviews (of writers for and by writers), the engagement by Jhave with Sean Braune's Language Parasites suggests a variation on that model. Their parasite-to-parasite encounter bodes well to supplement (if not overtake) the hidden, professionalized peer review models that keeps all of us so busy and ...

Cutaneous parasites

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1998
Recent developments in leishmanial research include better survey procedures to determine risk factors in the community. Community-based scabies control is seen as the only way to reduce the morbidity caused by this infection in developing countries.
