OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of ivermectin mass drug administration on strongyloidiasis and other soil transmitted helminthiases. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of data collected in Esmeraldas (Ecuador) during surveys conducted in areas where ivermectin was annually administered to the entire population for the control of onchocerciasis. Data from 5 surveys, conducted betw...
Duodenal obstruction - an unusual presentation of Strongyloides stercoralis enteritis: a case report
BACKGROUND Intestinal obstruction is a poorly recognized and probably underreported complication of strongyloidiasis. We present herein an unusual case, of complete duodenal obstruction caused by S. stercoralis. METHODS A systematic review of the literature examining the clinical course, diagnostic methods, and outcome of this rare complication of strongyloidiasis was performed. RESULTS A 4...
Aim This study is aimed to diagnose and analyze strongyloidiasis in a population of an endemic area of Iran using nested-PCR, coupled with parasitological methods. Background Screening of strongyloidiasis infected people using reliable diagnostic techniques are essential to decrease the mortality and morbidity associated with this infection. Molecular methods have been proved to be highly sen...
The aim of this study was to determine whether human T-cell lymphocytotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection may affect the levels of parasite-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) G and IgE and the positivity of the skin test for strongyloidiasis. Participants included 67 patients with strongyloidiasis (40 without HTLV-1 infection and 27 coinfected with HTLV-1). We determined IgG and IgE levels by enzy...
Background: Immunosuppresion caused by corticosteroids predisposes leprosy patients to Strongyloides stercoralis infection which if untreated can be fatal. Patients acquire infection by walking barefoot in infested soils and can be infected for life because of the auto infective cycle of the parasite. Corticosteroids have precipitated death in more than 60% of disseminated strongyloidiasis case...
Two preparations of antigens for the diagnosis of strongyloidiasis were prepared from an extract of the infective larvae of Strongyloides stercoralis: a crude antigen (CA) and a molecular weight cut-off antigen (MWCOA). Both antigens were analysed by indirect ELISA against the sera of strongyloidiasis (26 cases), other helminthiases (167) and normal controls (30). The larvae were obtained from ...
Introduction. Pulmonary hemorrhage secondary to disseminated strongyloidiasis is an unusual, well-recognized entity in immunocompromised patients with autoimmune disease, which is associated with the hyperinfection syndrome, sepsis, and a high mortality rate. Case Presentation. We present a case of a 44-year-old Mexican woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and acute bacterial meningitis who ...
AIM To investigate the immunopathological changes in duodenal tissues induced by strongyloidiasis and to relate these to degrees of clinical severity. METHODS Tissues taken from 21 patients showing mild, moderate or severe symptoms of strongyloidiasis, and from non-infected controls, were sectioned and stained immunocytochemically for IgA, secretory component (SC) and HLA-DR. Immunopathology ...
