An 84-year-old woman presented with dyspnea due to an exacerbation of chronic heart failure caused by severe anemia (hemoglobin 4.4g/dL). Colonoscopy revealed a cloud of white worms moving among tarry stool in the cecum and ascending colon. The posterior portions of the worms were located in the colon lumen, while the anterior portions were firmly embedded in colon mucosa (●" Fig.1). One of the...

Experiments were conducted on male, Sprague-Dawley rats of the same age fed a standard laboratory diet to determine the comparative effects of single and concurrent subclinical infections by coccidia (Eimeria nieschulzi) and roundworms (Nippostrongylus brasiliensis) on nutritional status and metabolism. All infections produced anorexia, but it was more prolonged and intense with the concurrent ...

A 29 years old male from Bangladesh presented in the emergency department with severe abdominal pain and symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction. Epigastric tenderness, tachycardia, low grade fever, leucocytosis (WBC: 14900/microL) with neutrophilia (Neu:10900/microL) and eosinophilia (Eos:600/microL) were noted, as well as features of obstructive jaundice (increased AST, ALT, and total bilirubi...

The Nematodes are roundworms that are found in every environment of the earth. While some species are harmful parasites, others play a vital role in nutrient cycle and medical research. Nematode infestation in the fields is poly-specific; however, depending on the agro-climatic conditions, one or two species are dominant over the rest. The present studies attempts to observe and control the roo...

Since the EU ban on battery cages, many studies have listed Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinarum as most common roundworms in European laying hen population. A complicating factor is that eggs of these parasites are almost identical. Thus, lack molecular diagnostic approaches has driven epidemiological to take necropsy for species discrimination, which labor cost intensive. Here, we describ...

Helminth.net (http://www.helminth.net) is the new moniker for a collection of databases: Nematode.net and Trematode.net. Within this collection we provide services and resources for parasitic roundworms (nematodes) and flatworms (trematodes), collectively known as helminths. For over a decade we have provided resources for studying nematodes via our veteran site Nematode.net (http://nematode.ne...
