Protozoan Infection in the Perinatal Period
The Journal of Perinatal & Neonatal Nursing, 1997Protozoan infections represent an area of concern for advanced practice nurses, particularly those working in rural areas or urban environments with refugee populations and those caring for patients with immunodeficiency-related diseases. Some of these infections have major effects on the fetus and neonate yet pose minimal problems to the mother ...

Intestinal protozoan disease diagnosed in pregnancy is mostly controlled by symptomatic treatment. Specific therapy can be delayed until after delivery. Only severe cases, i.e. continued diarrhea leading to malnutrition of either mother or fetus, require an immediate specific drug therapy, which might be harmful to the fetus due to toxic and ...

Alternatively activated macrophages in protozoan infections
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2007A type 1 cytokine-dependent pro-inflammatory response inducing classically activated macrophages is crucial for parasite control during protozoan infections but can also contribute to the development of immunopathological disease symptoms. Accumulating evidence indicates that interleukins 4, 13 and 10, transforming growth factor-beta, immune complexes ...

Human Waterborne Trematode and Protozoan Infections
2007Waterborne trematode and protozoan infections inflict considerable morbidity on healthy, i.e., immunocompetent people, and may cause life-threatening diseases among immunocompromised and immunosuppressed populations. These infections are common, easily transmissible, and maintain a worldwide distribution, although waterborne trematode infections remain

Protozoan Infections of Man: Other Infections
1986The choice of the optimal chemotherapy for the protozoan infections covered in this chapter deserves particular attention by physicians because of the potentially lifethreatening nature of some of these diseases such as pneumocystosis, toxoplasmosis, and amebiasis, and because of the large numbers of individuals with clinical diseases caused by ...

Protozoan Infections in Pregnancy
1985Protozoans, unique single-cell organisms unlike the rest of the animal phyla, are distributed throughout nature. Only a small number are pathogens. Considering their diversity and the changes in the environment and host responses resulting from human industry, agriculture, animal husbandry, and living practices, we should not be surprised to ...

Protozoan Infections of the Gastrointestinal Tract
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2012The review provides current views on human protozoan parasites of the gut. The recognition of the importance of cryptosporidium, cyclospora and microsporidia over the last three decades emphasises the possibility that more pathogenic intestinal protozoa are presently unrecognized.

[Physiopathology of protozoan infections].
Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales, 1997The pathophysiology of diseases produced by protozoal infections is caused not only by a direct effect of the parasites on their host (e.g. host cell lysis or parasite adherence), but also by indirect effects, where molecules of parasite origin exert an effect on host cells, which in turn produces a cascade of events (including the secretion of ...
