Rare Infectious Diseases: Detection and Clinical Implications
Rare infectious diseases are infections that are uncommon, have a low incidence, and are caused by newly emerging pathogens, cross‐species or ectopic infections, or host immunodeficiencies. The detection and diagnosis of rare infections is one of the main reasons for misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

A quantitative risk assessment for human Taenia solium exposure from home slaughtered pigs in European countries [PDF]
Background: Taenia solium, a zoonotic tapeworm, is responsible for about a third of all preventable epilepsy human cases in endemic regions. In Europe, adequate biosecurity of pig housing and meat inspection practices have decreased the incidence of T ...

• Porcine cysticercosis is endemic in pigs raised in Makurdi slaughterhouses. The prevalence is observed to be higher in older pigs, suggesting that age may be a potential risk factor. • Cysticerci were predominantly found in the shoulder muscles of pig carcasses, highlighting the part as a critical focus for future interventions.

ABSTRACT Neurocysticercosis, a leading cause of acquired epilepsy, can present as disseminated disease with widespread cystic lesions. A 33‐year‐old male with seizures and weakness showed radiologically confirmed neurocysticercosis. Treatment with steroids, antiparasitics, and antiseizure medication led to improvement. Early diagnosis and public health

Taenia solium Neurocysticercosis
After many years as a relatively rare neurological disorder, Taenia solium (pork tapeworm) neurocysticercosis is now seen more frequently in patients in the United States. Humans are the definitive and only hosts of the tapeworm stage. The larval stage develops in the pig, the intermediate host, following ingestion of tapeworm eggs excreted in the ...

This study reveals that Zbp1 plays a pivotal role in regulating neuroimmune interactions during Angiostrongylus cantonensis (AC) infection. Zbp1 modulates lymphocyte infiltration and natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity by promoting cytokine secretion and M1 polarization of macrophages, shaping the CNS immune microenvironment.
