Cryptosporidium spp. are parasites with zoonotic potential that cause intestinal
diseases, generally intense diarrheal, on their hosts, which tend to be
immunocompromised. Large populations of pigeons in urban environments can lead
to greater human exposure to Cryptosporidium spp., as this bird is considered a
potential reservoir and is able to transmit several pathogens. This study aimed
in deter... hiện toàn bộ

Hydatid cyst is the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. In previous studies
inhibitory effect of this parasite on cancer cell growth in culture medium has
been shown. In this study effect of hydatid cyst antigens on tumor growth in
experimental animals has been investigated. Two antigens of hydatid cyst
including protoscolices excretory secretory antigen and hydatid fluid absorbed

Parasitic infestation often present with superficial nodular swelling. Fine
needle aspiration cytology plays an important role in prompt diagnosis of the
disease. To study the role of FNAC in the diagnosis of parasites presenting as
skin or subcutaneous nodules. Total 361 cases of superficial swellings at
various sites were subjected to fine needle aspiration cytology. Out of the 361
cases, 35 cas... hiện toàn bộ
