Background: Helminthes and protozoan are human parasites that can infect gastrointestinal tract of humans beings and reside in intestinal wall. Protozoans are one celled microscopic, able to multiply in humans, contributes to their survival, permits serious infections, use one of the four main modes of transmission (direct, fecal-oral, vector-borne, and predator-prey) and also helminthes are necked multicellular organisms, referred as intestinal worms even though not all helminthes reside in intestines. However, in their adult form, helminthes cannot multiply in humans and able to survive in mammalian host for many years due to their ability to manipulate immune response. Objectives: The objectives of this study is to assess the main pathophysiology and gastrointestinal impacts of parasitic worms in human being.

Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 65 (5): 575-588 (1987) © World Health Organization 1987 Public health significance of intestinal parasitic infections* WHO EXPERT COMMITTEE' Intestinal parasitic infections are distributed virtually throughout the world, with high prevalence rates in many regions. Amoebiasis, ascariasis, hookworm infection and trichuriasis are among the ten most common infections in the world. Other parasitic infections such as abdominal angiostrongyliasis, intestinal capil- lariasis, and strongyloidiasis are of local or regional public health concern. The prevention and control of these infections are now more feasible than ever before owing to the discovery of safe and efficacious drugs, the improvement and sim- plification of some diagnostic procedures, and advances in parasite population biology. METHODS OF ASSESSMENT The amount of harm caused by intestinal parasitic infections to the health and welfare of individuals and communities depends on: (a) the parasite species; (b) the intensity and course of the infection; (c) the nature of the interactions between the parasite species and concurrent infections; (d) the nutritional and immunological status of the population; and (e) numerous socioeconomic factors.

    S113 Albendazole: a review of anthelmintic efficacy and safety in humans J.HORTON* Therapeutics (Tropical Medicine), SmithKline Beecham International, Brentford, Middlesex, United Kingdom TW8 9BD This comprehensive review briefly describes the history and pharmacology of albendazole as an anthelminthic drug and presents detailed summaries of the efficacy and safety of albendazole’s use as an anthelminthic in humans. Cure rates and % egg reduction rates are presented from studies published through March 1998 both for the recommended single dose of 400 mg for hookworm (separately for Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale when possible), Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and Enterobius vermicularis and, in separate tables, for doses other than a single dose of 400 mg. Overall cure rates are also presented separately for studies involving only children 2–15 years. Similar tables are also provided for the recommended dose of 400 mg per day for 3 days in Strongyloides stercoralis, Taenia spp. and Hymenolepis nana infections and separately for other dose regimens. The remarkable safety record involving more than several hundred million patient exposures over a 20 year period is also documented, both with data on adverse experiences occurring in clinical trials and with those in the published literature and\or spontaneously reported to the company. The incidence of side effects reported in the published literature is very low, with only gastrointestinal side effects occurring with an overall frequency of just "1%. Albendazole’s unique broad-spectrum activity is exemplified in the overall cure rates calculated from studies employing the recommended doses for hookworm (78% in 68 studies: 92% for A. duodenale in 23 studies and 75% for N.

Cytokine and proliferative responses to Necator americanus infection were measured in a treatment-reinfection study of infected subjects from an area of Papua New Guinea where N. americanus is highly endemic. Before treatment, most subjects produced detectable interleukin (IL)–4 (97%), IL-5 (86%), and interferon (IFN)–g (64%) in response to adult N. americanus antigen. Pretreatment IFN-g responses were negatively associated with hookworm burden, decreasing by 18 pg/mL for each increase of 1000 eggs/gram (epg) (n p 75 ;P ! .01 ).

  • Intestinal Parasites)
    Parasites (intestinal parasites) General considerations Definition • A parasite is defined as an animal or plant which harm, others cause moderate to severe diseases, lives in or upon another organism which is called Parasites that can cause disease are known as host. • This means all infectious agents including bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and helminths are parasites. • Now, the term parasite is restricted to the protozoa and helminths of medical importance. • The host is usually a larger organism which harbours the parasite and provides it the nourishment and shelter. • Parasites vary in the degree of damage they inflict upon their hosts. Host-parasite interactions Classes of Parasites 1. • Parasites can be divided into ectoparasites, such as ticks and lice, which live on the surface of other organisms, and endoparasites, such as some protozoa and worms which live within the bodies of other organisms • Most parasites are obligate parasites: they must spend at least some of their life cycle in or on a host. Classes of parasites 2. • Facultative parasites: they normally are free living but they can obtain their nutrients from the host also (acanthamoeba) • When a parasite attacks an unusual host, it is called as accidental parasite whereas a parasite can be aberrant parasite if it reaches a site in a host, during its migration, where it can not develop further. Classes of parasites 3. • Parasites can also be classified by the duration of their association with their hosts. – Permanent parasites such as tapeworms remain in or on the host once they have invaded it – Temporary parasites such as many biting insects feed and leave their hosts – Hyperparasitism refers to a parasite itself having parasites.

Las larvas no disponen de las hialuronidasas y otras enzimas necesa- rias para perforar la epidermis y seguir su ciclo, invadiendo los vasos dérmicos que las transpor- tan al pulmón de donde migran al intestino. Permanecen, pues, dentro de la epidermis (figuras 2 y 3), en donde se desplazan de unos milimetros hasta 2 cm diarios, originando el trayecto lineal caracteristico (figura 1).
