  • Anti-Fas2 IgM antibodies in Fasciola hepatica infected patients with positive IgG serology 
    Kazantseva, Liliya; García Lázaro, María Del Pilar; Herrera Velit, Rosa Patricia; Espinoza, Jose R. (Oxford University Press, 2017)
    Background: Fascioliasis is an infectious disease caused by parasites Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Humans are infected by the consumption of vegetables and water contaminated with the infective form of the parasite. ...
  • Evaluation of a New Immunochromatographic Test Using Recombinant Antigen B8/1 for Diagnosis of Cystic Echinococcosis 
    Santivanez, Saul J.; Rodriguez, Mary L.; Rodriguez, Silvia; Sako, Yashuito; Nkouawa, Agathe; Kobayashi, Yukuharu; Sotomayor, Alfredo L.; Peralta, Julio E.; Valcarcel, Maria; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Ito, Akira (American Society for Microbiology, 2015)
    Diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis (CE) is based on the identification of the cyst(s) by imaging, using immunodiagnostic tests mainly as complementary tools in clinical settings. Among the antigens used for immunodiagnosis, ...
  • High Prevalence of Asymptomatic Neurocysticercosis in an Endemic Rural Community in Peru 
    Moyano, Luz M.; O'Neal, Seth E.; Ayvar, Viterbo; Gonzalvez, Guillermo; Gamboa Morán, Ricardo; Vilchez Barreto, Percy Mcquen; Rodriguez, Silvia; Reistetter, Joe; Tsang, Victor C. W.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo (Public Library of Science, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: Neurocysticercosis is a common helminthic infection of the central nervous system and an important cause of adult-onset epilepsy in endemic countries. However, few studies have examined associations between ...
  • Incidence of human Taenia solium larval Infections in an Ecuadorian endemic area: implications for disease burden assessment and control 
    Coral-Almeida, Marco; Rodríguez-Hidalgo, Richar; Celi-Erazo, Maritza; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Rodríguez, Silvia; Devleesschauwer, Brecht; Benítez-Ortiz, Washington; Dorny, Pierre; Praet, Nicolas (Public Library of Science, 2014)
    BACKGROUND: Human cysticercosis is a zoonotic disease causing severe health disorders and even death. While prevalence data become available worldwide, incidence rate and cumulative incidence figures are lacking, which ...
  • New insights in cysticercosis transmission 
    Arriola, Carmen S.; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; Gomez-Puerta, Luis A.; Lopez-Urbina, Maria T.; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Gilman, Robert Hugh (Public Library of Science, 2014)
    Taenia solium infection causes severe neurological disease in humans. Even though infection and exposure to swine cysticercosis is scattered throughout endemic villages, location of the tapeworm only explains some of the ...
  • Porcine Cysticercosis: Possible Cross-Reactivity of Taenia hydatigena to GP50 Antigen in the Enzyme-Linked Immunoelectrotransfer Blot Assay 
    Muro Ecca, Claudio Alberto; Gomez-Puerta, Luis A.; Flecker, Robert H.; Gamboa Morán, Ricardo; Barreto, Percy Vilchez; Dorny, Pierre; Tsang, Victor C. W.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; O'Neal, Seth E.; Cysticercosis Working Group in Peru (American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2017)
    The lentil lectin glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunoelectrotransfer blot (LLGP EITB, reported sensitivity 99% and specificity 100%) is used as a serologic marker of exposure to Taenia solium in pigs. However, only a limited ...
  • Ring-screening to control endemic transmission of Taenia solium 
    O'Neal, Seth E.; Moyano, Luz M.; Ayvar, Viterbo; Rodriguez, Silvia; Gavidia, Cesar; Wilkins, Patricia P.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano (Public Library of Science, 2014)
    BACKGROUND: Taenia solium is a major cause of preventable epilepsy in developing nations. Screening and treatment of human intestinal stage infection (taeniasis) within high-risk foci may reduce transmission and prevent ...
  • Spatial relationship between Taenia solium tapeworm carriers and necropsy cyst burden in pigs 
    Pray, Ian W.; Ayvar, Viterbo; Gamboa Morán, Ricardo; Muro Ecca, Claudio Alberto; Moyano, Luz M.; Benavides, Victor; Flecker, Robert H.; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; O'Neal, Seth E. (Public Library of Science, 2017)
    BACKGROUND: Taenia solium, a parasite that affects humans and pigs, is the leading cause of preventable epilepsy in the developing world. Geographic hotspots of pigs testing positive for serologic markers of T. solium ...
