Intestinal Parasitic Infections in Marginalized Populations: Prevalence and Risk Factors Among the Bantar Community of Sunsari, Nepal

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Intestinal parasite infections remain highly prevalent (53.3%) among the Bantar community in Sunsari, Nepal, with Ascaris lumbricoides being the most common parasite and nail‐biting habit identified as a significant risk factor. The findings highlight the urgent need for targeted water, sanitation, hygiene, and health education interventions.

Intestinal Parasitic Infections in Red Pandas From Community Forests of Eastern Nepal

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Wild red pandas (Ailurus fulgens) from community forests of eastern Nepal showed a high intestinal parasite burden, with 66.7% of faecal samples testing positive. Helminthic infections (75%) were more prevalent than protozoan infections (50%), and mixed gastrointestinal infections occurred in 45.8% of individuals.

European mistletoe shares a similar demographic strategy with non‐parasitic plants

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.
European mistletoe (Viscum album) does not have a distinct demographic strategy from non‐parasitic plants, as quantified by time‐based life history traits. We found that mistletoe vital rates were driven by mistletoe size and position in the host tree.

Comparative Analysis of Gut Eukaryotic Communities in Three Laboratory‐Reared Cockroach Species Using Metabarcoding

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cockroaches are known reservoirs for diverse bacterial microbiomes. However, comprehensive analyses of the eukaryotic communities within cockroaches remain limited. In this study, we selected three long‐term laboratory‐reared cockroach species (Blattella germanica, Periplaneta fuliginosa, and Periplaneta japonica) and performed metabarcoding ...

Population dynamics ofTrichuris suisin trickle-infected pigs

Parasitology, 2009
SUMMARYThe population dynamics ofTrichuris suisin pigs was studied during long-term experimental infections. Twenty-three 10-week-old pigs were inoculated with 5T. suiseggs/kg/day. Seven, 8, and 8 pigs were necropsied at weeks 4, 8, and 14 post-start of infection (p.i.), respectively. The median numbers of worms in the colon were 538 (min–max: 277–618),
