Roundworm nematodes are globally distributed zoonotic parasites that inhabit the intestinal tract of various mammals. Although these parasites reside in the host’s guts, their own intestinal ecosystems remain poorly understood. Recent evidence suggests that helminths may harbor distinct gut microbiomes that contribute to their physiology and host ...

Background Toxocara spp. is one of the most neglected zoonotic soil‐transmitted helminths worldwide, causing toxocariasis in humans. The objective of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of Toxocara spp. in dogs, cats, and their owners, the coprodiagnostic incidence in dogs and cats, the risk factors, and association with atopy in owners of ...

Background Soil‐transmitted helminthiases (STHs) in stray dogs and cats, including hookworm infection, strongyloidiasis, and toxocariasis, are prevalent globally. The lack of STH control in these stray animals leads to an increased prevalence of STHs in southern Thailand. Suddenly, the El Niño 2014–2016 induced a 14‐month‐long drought. We thus aimed to
