Mem Inst Oswaldo Cruz . 2022 Feb; 116:e210280. PMID: 35195158
Background: Giardia duodenalis is a protozoan parasite that infects humans and other mammals and causes giardiasis worldwide. Giardia is genotyped into eight assemblages (A-H), with assemblages A and B considered...

Infect Genet Evol . 2022 Jan; 98:105200. PMID: 34990852
Objective: To assess the emergent zoonotic disease risk posed by the voracious human-biting blackfly species Simulium oyapockense in the peripheral regions of an expanding urban centre situated deep in the...

Picelli A, da Silva M, Ramires A, Silva T, Pessoa F, Viana L, et al.
Parasitol Res . 2020 Jun; 119(8):2659-2666. PMID: 32529297
Blood samples from 72 Ameiva ameiva lizards from Central Amazonian upland forests were collected, and thin smears of 40 (55.5%) animals were positive for gamonts of Hepatozoon with a mean...

Clin Infect Dis . 2020 Jan; 71(8):1990-1993. PMID: 31995172
Mansonella ozzardi and Mansonella perstans infections both cause mansonellosis but are usually treated differently. Using a real-time polymerase chain reaction assay and deep sequencing, we reveal the presence of mansonellosis...
