A large-scale epidemiological investigation on trematode infections in small ruminants in Bangladesh. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci, 2022
Background The important trematode species in small ruminants: Paramphistomum sp., Fasciola spp. and Schistosoma spp. seriously affect the productivity of domestic ruminants in endemic areas. Methods In the present study, we identified the potential risk

Artyfechinostomum sufrartyfex Trematode Infections in Children, Bihar, India. [PDF]

Emerg Infect Dis, 2019
Eating raw or insufficiently cooked mollusks is a known risk factor for human echinostomiasis. We confirmed identification of Artyfechinostomum sufrartyfex trematodes as the causative agent of disease among 170 children in northern Bihar, India.

Aetiopathogenesis, clinico-epidemiological and diagnostic aspects of human ocular trematode infections: a scoping review protocol. [PDF]

BMJ Open
Introduction Human ocular trematode infections, caused by parasitic flatworms, are a significant public health concern worldwide. It can lead to mild-to-severe consequences if untreated.

Trematodes in snail intermediate hosts of a subarctic lake: updated perspectives on molecular diversity. [PDF]

Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl
Subarctic freshwater ecosystems have traditionally been considered species-poor in parasites, but recent molecular studies increasingly challenge this view. We present an updated molecular assessment of trematode diversity in molluscan intermediate hosts

Molecular insights into seasonal trematode infections in Bithynia Snails: host lineages, parasite diversity, and Opisthorchis viverrini susceptibility in southern Lao PDR. [PDF]

Trop Med Health
Background Opisthorchiasis, caused by Opisthorchis viverrini, is a major public health concern in Southeast Asia. Despite control programs, O. viverrini infection persists and contributes to severe liver diseases, including cholangiocarcinoma. This study

Trematode recolonization in first intermediate snail hosts after large-scale stream restoration. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors
Background Parasite recolonization and succession following disturbance are inherently linked to the recovery of free-living species, yet patterns governing parasite recolonization in freshwater ecosystems remain largely unexplored.

From coast to interior: Trematodes completing freshwater life cycles are dominant in gulls recorded inland. [PDF]

Parasitology
Large gulls (Laridae) have expanded from coastal regions into inland Central Europe, where they increasingly exploit fishponds, landfills, and urban habitats.

Pathological and Epidemiological Assessment of Trematode Burden in Ruminants From Central Ethiopia. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Background Trematode infections in ruminants cause major economic losses through reduced productivity and liver condemnation, with their epidemiology closely linked to snail habitats, rainfall patterns, and poor grazing management.

Matrix-Dependent Sensitivity of Two Pan-Trematode PCR Assays for Detecting <i>Schistosoma</i> spp. in Clinical Human Samples. [PDF]

Infect Dis Rep
Background: Schistosoma spp. are trematodes occurring in tropical endemic areas but can be imported to non-endemic regions as causes of travel-associated infections.
