متن کاملReview Article Sexual and vertical transmission of visceral leishmaniasis
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is an important zoonosis caused by Leishmania infantum, which has in the domestic dog its principal vertebrate host in urban environments. VL is usually transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies, however atypical routes of transmission have been described. In this review we discuss the role of sexual and vertical transmissions, and their implications in the maintenance ...
متن کاملModeling and analyzing the transmission dynamics of visceral leishmaniasis.
In this paper, we develop a mathematical model to study the transmission dynamics of visceral leishmaniasis. Three populations: dogs, sandflies and humans, are considered in the model. Based on recent studies, we include vertical transmission of dogs in the spread of the disease. We also investigate the impact of asymptomatic humans and dogs as secondary reservoirs of the parasites. The basic r...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of canine visceral leishmaniasis in asymptomatic dogs in Iran
Clinically infected dogs have been identified as the main reservoir hosts of visceral leishmaniasis (VL)caused by Leishmania infantum. Recently asymptomatic infected dogs were regarded to be as important asclinically ill dogs. This study was aimed to determine the seroprevalence of L. infantum infection amongasymptomatic dogs in the southwest and central parts of Iran and to investigate possibl...
متن کاملVisceral leishmaniasis.
While fully agreeing with Mr Cudmore that orchidopexy at 2 years of age is a difficult procedure and that the majority of orchidopexies are carried out by general surgeons or, unfortunately, delegated to a junior member of the team, the clinical and experimental evidence supporting orchidopexy at around the age of 2 years is overwhelming. The optimal age for orchidopexy cited in the annotation ...
