Secretory glands in cercaria of the neuropathogenic schistosome Trichobilharzia regenti - ultrastructural characterization, 3-D modelling, volume and pH estimations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Cercariae of schistosomes employ bioactive molecules for penetration into their hosts. These are released from specialized unicellular glands upon stimuli from host skin.

Legacy parasite collections reveal species-specific population genetic patterns among three species of zoonotic schistosomes (Trematoda: Schistosomatidae)

open access: yes, 2021
Multi-host helminth systems are difficult to study at a population level due to inherent spatial and temporal sampling challenges. Consequently, our understanding of the factors affecting gene flow, genetic drift and effective population size is limited.

HISTOPATHOLOGY OF Holochilus brasiliensis(RODENTIA: CRICETIDAE)INFECTED WITH Schistosoma mansoni(SCHISTOSOMATIDA: SCHISTOSOMATIDAE)

open access: yesRevista de Patologia Tropical, 2007
Schistosomiasis prevalence in swamplands of North-eastern Brazil is complicated by the presence of alternative hosts, such as the marsh rat Holochilus brasiliensis . However, the effects of Schistosoma mansoni on this host – at both individual and population levels - are unknown. We investigated the pathological effects of S.

Hematological and Biochemical Profile of Patients Infected with Schistosoma mansoni in Comparison with Apparently Healthy Individuals at Sanja Town, Northwest Ethiopia: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background. Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that resides in the vascular system of vertebrates, causing a chronic, debilitating disease that affects more than 200 million people and 800,000 deaths per year in over 70 countries. This parasite causes liver dysfunction and disorders normal hematological and biochemical profiles in addition to ...

Identification of a major causative agent of human cercarial dermatitis, Trichobilharzia franki (Muller and Kimmig 1994), in southern England and its evolutionary relationships with other European populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Trichobilharzia is the most species rich and widely distributed genus of schistosomes and is known throughout Europe and North America as an agent of human cercarial dermatitis. The disease is caused by an acute allergic reaction in the skin

Ocorrência de Schistosoma mansoni (SAMBON, 1907) (Digenea: Schistosomatidae) em um Município Endêmico no Sul da Bahia / Occurrence of Schistosoma mansoni (SAMBON, 1907) (Digenea: Schistosomatidae) in an Endemic Municipality in Southern Bahia- Brazil

open access: yes, 2021
A esquistossomose e uma endemia parasitaria, tipica das Americas, Asia e Africa e atualmente ainda representa um problema de saude publica. Estima-se que aproximadamente 25 milhoes de pessoas ainda correm risco de contrair essa doenca.

Can the studies at a spatial scale of 100s meters detect the spatiotemporal fluctuations of a parasite assemblage? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The importance of small-scale heterogeneity in local factors which overrides that of larger-scales factors, suggest that local factors play a major role in determining the richness and prevalence of larval digeneans in intertidal gastropods.

Quantum Non-Objectivity from Performativity of Quantum Phenomena [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We analyze the logical foundations of quantum mechanics (QM) by stressing non-objectivity of quantum observables which is a consequence of the absence of logical atoms in QM.

First Record of Trichobilharzia physellae (Talbot, 1936) in Europe, a Possible Causative Agent of Cercarial Dermatitis

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Several species of avian schistosomes are known to cause dermatitis in humans worldwide. In Europe, this applies above all to species of the genus Trichobilharzia.
