25. Toxocariase humana e parasitoses intestinais em areas sob o risco de enchentes no municipio de Campinas, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil
Human intestinal parasitoses remain a very common public health problem, and their geographical distribution and prevalence are associated with several factors, particularly the low socio-economic status of the population. Nematodes such as Toxocara canis and Toxocara cati (parasites in dogs and cats, respectively) are the main agents of the visceral and ocu

26. Ovos de Toxocara spp. em praças públicas no município de Sorocaba, São Paulo, Brasil
A larva migrans visceral - LMV - é uma síndrome causada pela infecção humana por ovos larvados de helmintos como o Toxocara spp., que usualmente compromete o cão e o gato. Dentre os fatores de risco para a ocorrência da LMV, destaca-se o tamanho da população desses animais. Sorocaba é uma cidade com uma população canina duas vezes superior à reco

27. Ocorrência de larva migrans na areia de áreas de lazer das escolas municipais de ensino infantil, Araçatuba, SP, Brasil
A areia das áreas de lazer de escolas podem constituir vias de transmissão para várias zoonoses parasitárias, representando risco potencial para as crianças que brincam nesses locais. Foi avaliada a ocorrência de agentes de larva migrans em 28 escolas municipais de ensino infantil de Araçatuba, SP. Foram colhidas 535 amostras de areia das áreas de la

28. Human toxocarosis. Its seroprevalence in the City of La Plata
Toxocara canis is very common in dogs throughout the world. It is the primary cause of visceral larva migrans (VLM) in humans. Soil contaminated with T. canis embryonated eggs is the main source of infection of man. Our objective was to describe Toxocara seroprevalence in humans in the city of La Plata associated with some determinants such asage, presence o

31. Diagnosis of human toxocariasis by antigen capture enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.
AIMS--To evaluate an antigen capture enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) which detects a carbohydrate epitope on the excretory-secretory (ES) antigens of Toxocara canis in clinical practice. METHODS--Serum specimens from healthy adults, patients with acute visceral larva migrans, ocular and inactive toxocariasis, and with other helminth infections were

32. Toxocariasis: Clinical Aspects, Epidemiology, Medical Ecology, and Molecular Aspects
Toxocariasis is caused by a series of related nematode species (ascarids) that routinely infect dogs and cats throughout the world. The eggs from these ascarids are common environmental contaminants of human habitation, due largely to the fact that many kinds of dogs and cats serve as pets, while countless others run wild throughout the streets of most urban

33. MRI in cerebral toxocaral disease.
Toxocara canis, the common roundworm in the dog, can cause "visceral larva migrans" syndrome in humans, which may include generalised illness, eosinophilia, and symptoms arising from larval invasion of different organs. Of these, the clinically most important are liver, lungs, eyes and CNS. Involvement of the different parts of the CNS in human toxocaral dis

34. Gnathostomiasis, Another Emerging Imported Disease
Gnathostomiasis is a food-borne zoonosis caused by the late-third stage larvae of Gnathostoma spp. It is being seen with increasing frequency in countries where it is not endemic and should be regarded as another emerging imported disease. Previously, its foci of endemicity have been confined to Southeast Asia and Central and South America, but its geographi

35. Identification of Abundantly Expressed Novel and Conserved Genes from the Infective Larval Stage of Toxocara canis by an Expressed Sequence Tag Strategy
Larvae of Toxocara canis, a nematode parasite of dogs, infect humans, causing visceral and ocular larva migrans. In noncanid hosts, larvae neither grow nor differentiate but endure in a state of arrested development. Reasoning that parasite protein production is orientated to immune evasion, we undertook a random sequencing project from a larval cDNA library
