Protozoan and Helminth Contamination in Ecuadorian Agricultural Products: Dominance of Blastocystis sp.

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Foodborne diseases, particularly those caused by parasitic infections, pose significant public health challenges globally, particularly affecting vulnerable populations such as children. In this study, we investigated the parasitic contamination in 773 samples of fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens from Ecuador’s Chimborazo Province. Utilizing a cross‐

Pet and Stray Dogs’ Contribution to Zoonotic Transmission Pathways: A Bibliometric Review

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Based on a large‐scale bibliometric dataset, domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) emerge as the most frequently cited host species in the context of zoonoses, being mentioned in at least 10% of publications for nearly a quarter of the pathogens recognized as zoonotic to humans.

A new parasite discovery in Micronesia: eggs of the nematode Toxocara canis at archaeological sites on Ebon Atoll, Marshall Islands extend the known dog presence by c.600 years

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 59, Issue 3, Page 516-522, October 2024.
ABSTRACT Little is known of helminth parasites in Micronesia in archaeological contexts. This study presents a parasitological analysis of soil and sediment samples from Ebon Atoll in the Marshall Islands, eastern Micronesia. Microscopic eggs of the dog (Canis lupus familiaris) nematode Toxocara canis, which could have adversely affected the health of ...

Hookworm prevalence in ocelots in Costa Rica is inconsistent with spillover from domestic dogs despite high overlap

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Spatial overlap between wildlife and related domestic animals can lead to disease transmission, with substantial evidence for viral and bacterial spillover. Domestic and wild animals can also share potentially harmful helminth parasites, many of which have environmental transmission stages that do not require direct contact between hosts.

Helminths of captive and free‐ranging populations of the mountain gazelle (Gazella gazella): Evidence from faecal examination

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 3, May 2024.
The goal of this study was to analyse the gastrointestinal helminths of mountain gazelle (Gazella gazella), an endangered large mammal species. Over 100 fresh faecal samples from both captive and free‐ranging populations were collected and analysed using various techniques.

Visceral larva migrans by Toxocara cati with multiple nodules in liver.

Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1988
症例は45才の男性.好酸球増加, IgEの上昇を認め,免疫電気泳動法による検索にて,猫回虫による内臓幼虫移行症と診断した.超音波検査,腹部CT検査で,肝に,多発性の小結節性低エコー域,低吸収域を認めた.肝の生検にて,これらの所見に一致すると思われる肉芽腫病変が得られた.肝に形成された肉芽腫を,画像診断で捉え,組織像で確認し得た症例はみられない.これらの所見は,本症の診断上,重要であると考えられた.
