Cutaneous reactions during treatment with Nifurtimox or Benznidazole among Trypanosoma cruzi seropositive adults without symptomatic cardiomyopathy: A safety sub analysis of a placebo‐controlled randomised trial

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 7, Page 673-684, July 2025.
Abstract Objectives To determine, in a randomised placebo‐controlled trial, if cutaneous adverse reactions during treatment (CARDT) with Benznidazole occur as often as with Nifurtimox, and whether the dose and duration of treatment change that frequency.

Rewiring the Vehicle: Trypanosoma cruzi Parasites Alter the Antennae of Their Triatomine Hosts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
Parasite Trypanosoma cruzi infects triatomine bugs. Infection induces antennal sensillum change in distribution and number in bugs. Antennal sensillum changes can make the bugs' search for food more efficient. ABSTRACT This study investigates the antennal phenotype of the kissing bug Triatoma pallidipennis (Stål), a primary vector of Chagas disease, by

Can body traits, other than wings, reflect the flight ability of Triatominae bugs?

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2015
: INTRODUCTION : Insects of the subfamily Triatominae are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi , the Chagas disease parasite, and their flying behavior has epidemiological importance.

Chagas Disease Vectors of Espírito Santo, Brazil: First Report of Triatoma infestans (Klug, 1834) (Hemiptera, Triatominae) in the Brazilian State and Development of an Identification Key Based on Cytogenetic Data.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2021
Chagas disease is a potentially life-threatening illness caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted, mainly, by hematophagous insects of the Triatominae subfamily.

Empowering communities through One Health and ArtScience: An innovative approach to combat Chagas disease in endemic areas of Minas Gerais, Brazil

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2025.
This study combines One Health and ArtScience to address Chagas disease in Latin America through Chagas Express XXI in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Six workshops revealed significant gaps in local understanding of transmission and control, emphasizing the need for education tailored to endemic socio‐environmental contexts.

Cytogenetic studies on Mepraia gajardoi (Heteroptera: Reduviidae). Chromosome behaviour in a spontaneous translocation mutant

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2004
We analysed the chromosome complement and male meiosis in a natural population of Mepraia gajardoi (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae). The normal karyotype of this species is 20 autosomes plus X1X2Y in males and X1X1X2X2 in females. We confirmed that M.

A revised classification of the assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae) based on combined analysis of phylogenomic and morphological data

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 102-138, January 2025.
This study produces the first combined morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis for Reduviidae and reveals synapomorphies and diagnostic traits for clades at the ranks of subfamilies and tribes. Based on our resulting robust phylogenetic reconstructions and subsequent optimization of morphological character information, we propose a ...
