Parasitic Infections and Associated Cognitive Outcome Among School‐Aged Children in Africa: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Parasitic infections like schistosomiasis, soil‐transmitted helminths, and malaria can impair nutrient absorption, oxygen supply, and brain function, leading to memory deficits, attention deficits, reduced intelligence quotient, weak academic performance, and motor or executive deficits.

Strongyloides fuelleborni kellyi in New Guinea: neglected, ignored and unexplored [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2021
Strongyloidiasis remains endemic throughout the Island of New Guinea. While many infections are caused by Strongyloides stercoralis, a second human-infecting Strongyloides species, Strongyloides fuelleborni kellyi, is also present. S. f.

Stricturing Diseases of the Gastrointestinal Tract—Current Clinical Practice

open access: yesJGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal stricture can occur in the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and anorectum. Most of the strictures are benign. The prevalence of esophageal strictures (ES) secondary to eosinophilic esophagitis has increased. Pyloric stenosis (PS) is rarely seen in clinical practice.

Strongyloides stercoralis in Alcoholic Patients: Implications of Alcohol Intake in the Frequency of Infection and Parasite Load

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Strongyloides stercoralis infection in immunocompromised subjects, including chronic alcoholics, can lead to a severe disease. Moreover, its prevalence in alcoholic patients seems to be higher than that in the general population.

Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma in French Guiana (1990–2019): Epidemiology, clinical features, and HTLV‐1 genetic diversity in the two main ethnic populations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 6, Page 1528-1540, 15 March 2026.
What's new? Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is a rare and aggressive malignancy caused by human T‐cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV‐1). The authors comprehensively analyzed the epidemiological and clinical features of ATL over a 30‐year period in French Guiana, a region with high HTLV‐1 endemicity and a multiethnic population.

Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 and Strongyloides stercoralis Co-infection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundThe distribution of human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) overlaps with that of Strongyloides stercoralis. Strongyloides stercoralis infection has been reported to be impacted by co-infection with HTLV-1. Disseminated strongyloidiasis

Structural and functional characterisation of the fork head transcription factor-encoding gene, Hc-daf-16, from the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus (Strongylida) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Despite their phylogenetic diversity, parasitic nematodes share attributes of longevity and developmental arrest (=hypobiosis) with free-living nematodes at key points in their life cycles, particularly in larval stages responsible for establishing ...
