Parasite Control: Liver Fluke
Liver fluke or Fasciola hepatica is a common parasite of livestock. A liver fluke infection causes ill health, as well as a reduction in growth rates and reproductive performance in affected livestock. Over recent years it has been acknowledged that the presence of liver fluke in the UK has increased and that the periods of risk for infections have become longer, as well as more difficult to pr...
متن کاملLife Cycle of Malaria Parasite and Vaccine Targets
Malaria is still one of the infectious diseases urgently requiring control and causes socioeconomic burdens on people residing in developing countries. Malaria vaccines are expected to control the disease. However, there is no effective vaccine available despite the intense efforts of malaria scientists. One strategy for a malaria vaccine is to prevent parasite spread by means of interfering wi...
متن کاملLife Cycle and Suicidal Behavior among Women
It is nowadays accepted that, independently of methodological issues, women commit fewer suicides than men but make more frequent attempts. Yet, female suicidal risk varies greatly along the lifetime and is linked to the most significant moments in it. A wide analysis of the existing literature was performed to provide a narrative description on the evolution of female suicidal rates from child...
متن کاملMore than meets the eye: detecting cryptic microgeographic population structure in a parasite with a complex life cycle.
Nonrandom recruitment of parasites among hosts can lead to genetic differentiation among hosts and mating dynamics that promote inbreeding. It has been hypothesized that strictly aquatic parasites with intermediate hosts will behave as panmictic populations among hosts because ample opportunity exists for random mixing of unrelated individuals during transmission to the definitive host. A previ...
