Angiostrongyliasis

12/01/1991 - "This study suggests that oral infection may not be the only route for the transmission of human angiostrongyliasis, and subcutaneous infection may be a better method for experimental infection."
09/01/2014 - "Our results showed that diagnosis for different quantity of larvae infection using MRI is possible and follow-up characterization is informative in revealing the effects of angiostrongyliasis on different brain areas. "
02/01/2014 - "cantonensis infection, and provide promising targets for clinical treatment of angiostrongyliasis."
06/01/2013 - "The most common cause of EOM is Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection, termed meningitic angiostrongyliasis (MA). "
11/01/2012 - "Human angiostrongyliasis results from accidental infection with Angiostrongylus, an intra-arterial nematode. "

08/01/2012 - "This study emphasizes that neuroimaging studies may be useful to differentiate gnathostomiasis and angiostrongyliasis particularly in patients with indistinct clinical presentations."
08/01/2012 - "The aim of this study was to report neuroimaging abnormalities detected with computed tomography (CT) and MR in patients with gnathostomiasis and angiostrongyliasis. "
01/01/2013 - "Neuroimaging features in neuro-gnathostomiasis and angiostrongyliasis."
08/01/2012 - "We enrolled 15 and 12 patients with serologically proven gnathostomiasis and angiostrongyliasis, respectively, who had brain or spinal imaging done. "
08/01/2012 - "A comparative study of neuroimaging features between human neuro-gnathostomiasis and angiostrongyliasis."

01/01/2015 - "Angiostrongylus cantonensis is the major cause of angiostrongyliasis, a disease characterised by eosinophilic meningitis. "
01/01/2015 - "The nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis is a rat lungworm, a zoonotic pathogen that causes human eosinophilic meningitis and ocular angiostrongyliasis characteristic of rat lungworm (RLW) disease. "
01/01/2015 - "The nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis is the causative agent of human angiostrongyliasis, the main clinical manifestation of which is eosinophilic meningitis. "
07/01/2013 - "The larva in nonpermissive hosts cannot develop into an adult worm and can cause eosinophilic meningitis and ocular angiostrongyliasis. "
06/01/2013 - "Unfortunately, the snail also acts as an intermediate host of Angiostrongylus cantonensis, and has been implicated in transfer of the parasite to people, resulting in angiostrongyliasis manifested as eosinophilic meningitis. "

06/01/2013 - "Neurognathostomiasis (NG) is the main parasitic disease in the differential diagnosis of meningitic angiostrongyliasis. "
12/01/2010 - "Angiostrongyliasis is a globally distributed parasitic disease. "
09/01/2008 - "Angiostrongylus costaricensis is the aetiological agent of human abdominal angiostrongyliasis, a parasitic disease reported from the United States to Argentina, with a widespread occurrence of the nematode throughout Central and South America. "

12/01/2001 - "The sera tested were from patients with proven angiostrongyliasis, other parasitic diseases, and healthy adults. "

09/01/2002 - "A clinical study of eosinophilic meningoencephalitis caused by angiostrongyliasis."
12/01/2014 - "Results suggest that MMP-9 activities are significant in BBB disruption in angiostrongyliasis meningoencephalitis. "
12/01/2014 - "BBB permeability was significantly attenuated in MMP-9 knockout mice than in wild-type mice in angiostrongyliasis meningoencephalitis. "
06/01/2013 - "This nematode is the causative agent of human angiostrongyliasis and the most common cause of human eosinophilic meningoencephalitis. "
01/01/2013 - "These results suggested that degradation of claudin-5 was caused by MMP-9 in angiostrongyliasis meningoencephalitis. "
