One of the neglected soil and/or food-borne diseases with international public health importance is toxocariasis. Human cases are being increasingly reported from Asian, African, Oceania, European and the American countries. Hence, human toxocariasis (HT) is now considered as a major zoonosis with global and regional importance. In Iran, human and animal toxocariasis is an endemic disease with ...

some parasites can be transferred from fish to human via eating of contaminated meat and make serious problems in consumers. in the present study zoonotic parasites of abdominal cavity in pike-perch, sander lucioperca, in south eastern part of the caspian sea have been surveyed. in this regard, 30 fish were caught by purse seine net and abdominal cavity, digestive tract and other organs (kidney...

Tularemia, also called Ohara’s disease, is an acute bacterial infectious disease caused by a pleomorphic, non-mobile, non-capsulated, small Gram negative coccobacillus and zoonotic bacterium, Francisella tularensis. This zoonotic bacteria has reportedly infected a wide range of wild animals (rabbits, hares, squirrels, muskrats, moles, skunks, beavers, deer), some domestic animals (sheep, cattle...

Hydatid cyst disease is a zoonotic infection.in human beings it apears as cystic lesions in different organs and the most common form is hydatid cyst of liver.one of the rare sites of the disease is salivary gland,which appears as a neck mass.therefore,when observing a cystic lesion in salivary glands.hydatid cyst should be considered and for confirmation of diagnosis spicial paraclinic techniq...

Emerging infectious diseases, most of which are considered zoonotic in origin, continue to exact a significant toll on society. The origins of major human infectious diseases are reviewed and the factors underlying disease emergence explored. Anthropogenic changes, largely in land use and agriculture, are implicated in the apparent increased frequency of emergence and re-emergence of zoonoses i...

Mongolia has more than ten times as many livestock as people. Herders are dependent on their livestock for their livelihood, and seasonal movement is driven by the livestock’s grazing needs. The daily, seasonal interactions between Mongolian herders and their livestock put herders at risk for several zoonotic diseases. The goals of this pilot study were to describe potential risk factors for zo...

BACKGROUND Giardia intestinalis is one of the most common diarrhea-related parasites in humans, where infection ranges from asymptomatic to acute or chronic disease. G. intestinalis consists of eight genetically distinct genotypes or assemblages, designated A-H, and assemblages A and B can infect humans. Giardiasis has been classified as a possible zoonotic disease but the role of animals in hu...

movie of the 2006 summer season. It featured reptiles smuggled onto an airplane as an unusual bioweapon of mass destruction. In a much less dramatic fashion, this absurd scenario plays out every day, when tons of live animals and unprocessed animal products are shipped internationally around the globe, providing many opportunities for rapidly translocating zoonotic pathogens. Episodes of emergi...

In this study, the burden of disease, costs, and animal losses caused by seven most common zoonoses in humans two animals are calculated between 2016-2018 Turkey. It aims to contribute literature providing a holistic framework on costs diseases The methodology study was based formula ''Disease Burden Zoonotic Diseases'' developed FAO. under ''Burden Early Mortality Humans'', Morbidity "Financia...

Emerging outbreaks of zoonotic diseases are affecting humans at an alarming rate. Until the ecological factors associated with zoonoses are better understood, disease emergence will continue. For Lyme disease, disease suppression has been demonstrated by a dilution effect, whereby increasing species diversity decreases disease prevalence in host populations. To test the dilution effect in anoth...
