W.; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo (American Society for Microbiology, 2012)
    Taenia solium causes taeniasis and cysticercosis, a zoonotic complex associated with a significant burden of epilepsy in most countries. Reliable diagnosis and efficacious treatment of taeniasis are needed for disease ...
  • Elimination of Taenia solium Transmission in Northern Peru 
    García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; Tsang, Victor C. W.; O'Neal, Seth E.; Llanos Zavalaga, Luis Fernando; Gonzalvez, Guillermo; Romero, Jaime; Rodriguez, Silvia; Moyano, Luz M.; Ayvar, Viterbo; Diaz, Andre; Hightower, Allen; Craig, Philip S.; Lightowlers, Marshall W.; Gauci, Charles G.; Leontsini, Elli; Gilman, Robert Hugh (Massachusetts Medical Society, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: Taeniasis and cysticercosis are major causes of seizures and epilepsy. Infection by the causative parasite Taenia solium requires transmission between humans and pigs. The disease is considered to be eradicable, ...
  • 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.

    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 ...
  • High Prevalence of Asymptomatic Neurocysticercosis in an Endemic Rural Community in Peru 
    Debacq, Gabrielle; Moyano, Luz M.; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Boumediene, Farid; Marin, Benoit; Ngoungou, Edgard B.; Preux, Pierre-Marie (Public Library of Science, 2017)
    BACKGROUND: We reviewed studies that analyzed cysticercosis (CC), neurocysticercosis (NCC) and epilepsy across Latin America, Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, to estimate the odds ratio and etiologic fraction of epilepsy due ...
  • Neurocysticercosis among People Living Near Pigs Heavily Infected with Cysticercosis in Rural Endemic Peru 
    Garvey, Brian T.; Moyano, Luz M.; Ayvar, Viterbo; Rodriguez, Silvia; 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, 2018)
    Neurocysticercosis causes substantial neurologic morbidity in endemic regions around the world. In this cross-sectional study, we describe the frequency of neurocysticercosis among a presumed high-risk group of people in ...
  • Neurocysticercosis as a cause of epilepsy and seizures in two community-based studies in a cysticercosis-endemic region in Peru 
    Moyano, Luz M.; Saito, Mayuko; Montano, Silvia M.; Gonzalvez, Guillermo; Olaya, Sandra; Ayvar, Viterbo; González, Isidro; Larrauri, Luis; Tsang, Victor C. W.; Llanos Zavalaga, Luis Fernando; Rodríguez, Silvia; Gonzalez Zariquiey, Armando Emiliano; Gilman, Robert Hugh; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo (Public Library of Science, 2014)
    BACKGROUND: The prevalence of epilepsy added to inadequate treatment results in chronic morbidity and considerable mortality in poor populations. Neurocysticercosis (NCC), a helminthic disease of the central nervous system, ...
  • 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 ...

    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 ...
