Prevalence and Molecular Characterization of Cyclospora cayetanensis, Henan, China
To determine prevalence of Cyclospora cayetanensis infection in Henan, China, we conducted a study of 11,554 hospital patients. Prevalence was 0.70% (95% confidence interval 0.70% ± 0.15%), with all age groups infected. Most cases were found in the summer. Minor sequence polymorphisms were observed in the 18S rRNA gene of 35 isolates characterized.
متن کاملCyclospora cayetanensis and other intestinal parasites associated with diarrhea in a rural area of Jordan.
Cryptosporidium spp. and Cyclospora cayetanensis have emerged as important causes of epidemic and endemic diarrhea in immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts. The exact modes of transmission in certain rural areas are still unclear. Reports of water-borne and food-borne outbreaks suggest that fecally contaminated water or food acts as a vehicle of transmission. Two hundred stool samples of ...
متن کاملPCR confirmation of infection with Cyclospora cayetanensis.
persons and the public health relevance of this emerging pathogen as a potential cause of diarrheal outbreaks (3,4) make prompt disclosure of the epidemiologic features and behavior of the parasite necessary. As we propose the possible participation of poultry in the epidemiologic cycle of the coccidia, we invite other Cyclospora working groups worldwide to confirm the so far putative reservoir...
متن کاملEpidemiologic studies of Cyclospora cayetanensis in Guatemala.
In 1996 and 1997, cyclosporiasis outbreaks in North America were linked to eating Guatemalan raspberries. We conducted a study in health-care facilities and among raspberry farm workers, as well as a case-control study, to assess risk factors for the disease in Guatemala. From April 6, 1997, to March 19, 1998, 126 (2.3%) of 5, 552 surveillance specimens tested positive for Cyclospora; prevalenc...
