Zoonotic enteric protozoa.
A growing number of enteric protozoan species are considered to have zoonotic potential. Their clinical impact varies and in many cases is poorly defined. Similarly, the epidemiology of infections, particularly the role of non-human hosts, requires further study. In this review, new information on the life cycles and transmission of Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Entamoeba, Blastocystis and Balantid...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance in zoonotic enteric pathogens.
Antimicrobial resistance is a zoonotic health threat. As in humans, the use of antimicrobial agents in animals results in the emergence and spread of resistant bacteria. Resistant bacteria from animals may be passed to humans via the food chain or direct animal contact, and may result in resistant infections. Increasing prevalence of resistance to antimicrobial agents such as fluoroquinolones a...
متن کاملClinical significance of enteric protozoa in the immunosuppressed human population.
Globally, the number of immunosuppressed people increases each year, with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pandemic continuing to spread unabated in many parts of the world. Immunosuppression may also occur in malnourished persons, patients undergoing chemotherapy for malignancy, and those receiving immunosuppressive therapy. Components of the immune system can be functionally or genetica...
متن کاملOutbreaks of zoonotic enteric disease associated with animal exhibits.
T he importance of zoonotic enteric disease transmission at animal exhibit settings has become apparent in recent years, as outbreaks associated with animal exhibits are reported with increasing frequency. Until recently, awareness of direct animal-to-human transmission of enteric pathogens was limited; there had been a few individual case reports. 1-3 With recent large outbreaks associated wit...
متن کاملSeasonality in Human Zoonotic Enteric Diseases: A Systematic Review
BACKGROUND Although seasonality is a defining characteristic of many infectious diseases, few studies have described and compared seasonal patterns across diseases globally, impeding our understanding of putative mechanisms. Here, we review seasonal patterns across five enteric zoonotic diseases: campylobacteriosis, salmonellosis, vero-cytotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC), cryptosporidiosis an...
