    Extractions: Stanford Report, March 12 New book explores parasitic infections Molecular pharmacologist Tag E. Mansour, PhD, professor emeritus and Donald E. and Delia B. Baxter Professor (1978-1999), addresses the persistent worldwide problem of parasitic infections and the ongoing challenge of designing drugs to combat them in his new book Chemotherapeutic Targets in Parasites: Contemporary Strategies. Written with Joan MacKinnon Mansour, his wife and research colleague, Mansour advocates the latest molecular strategies for identifying antiparasitic agents and the design of more selective and less toxic drugs. Chapter topics include the search for antiparasitic agents; biophysical, genomic and proteomic analysis of drug targets; and specific types of chemotherapeutic agents and their targets in malaria, trypanosomes, leishmania and other organisms.

    Extractions: New England Biolabs Technical Literature - Updated Parasitic Infections in Humans In many tropical and subtropical areas, the prevalence of parasitic infections is on the rise due to rapid and unplanned growth of cities, which creates additional breeding sites for the mosquitoes that transmit the parasites responsible for malaria and filariasis. Effective control of these diseases requires repeated administration of potent drugs and continuous efforts to reduce vector insect populations. Malaria is probably the most prevalent and debilitating parasitic disease afflicting humans. It is normally caused by one of four species of Plasmodium . Infection with Entamoeba histolytica , resulting in amoebic colitis and liver abscesses, is the second leading cause of death resulting from a parasitic infection. E. histolytica Filariasis is caused by several different species of parasitic nematodes that are transmitted to humans by a variety of insect vectors. Collectively, the various species of filarial parasites are estimated to infect approximately 150 million people worldwide, and over 1 billion people live in areas where filariasis is common (WHO [2000] Fact Sheets 102, 95). While filarial infection is rarely life-threatening, it causes chronic suffering, social stigma and disability. The degree of disability resulting from infection greatly hinders the ability to work and the economic impact of this disease is considerable.

    Extractions: Parasites Hulda Clark's book The Cure for All Cancers sold millions of copies. She, like many others before her, was convinced that parasites are a critical factor in the development as well as treatment of cancer. Many years ago, I read something in Tibetan medicine about miniature copper colored forms of life that normal eyes cannot see that are pathologically linked to cancer. Writing almost at the same time in Europe instead of the Himalayas, Hildegard of Bingen, described her violet salve and said that the "vermes" will lick the salve and die. The word "vermes" has been translated "viruses," but a viral link to cancer remains a subject of debate, and one professional translator I know feels that "vermes" could also be translated "lice," not perhaps what we think of when we say parasite, but nevertheless something small and aggravating. The Tibetans and Hildegard possessed a remarkable clairvoyance and were able to witness internal operations of the body that scientists have yet to discover.

    Extractions: Are You Clear of Parasites? Parasites, and the accompanying symptoms are well known in most countries. Many in the USA think that somehow we are immune to Parasitic infections. Just recently the medical community has finally acknowledged that parasitic infections are of epidemic proportions in this country! Parasitic distribution is influenced by many factors, including use of Modern Hot tubs, Hot springs, immigration, jet travel and the general decline of health in the modern world and our abilities to fight infections. Auto-immune disorders are rife with parasitic infections. It is not uncommon today for people to go the the doctor to discover 4 or more parasitic indicators in their stools.

    Extractions: So how do you know if you have a parasite - well, finding out can be difficult, but there are some signs to looks for. Although most everyone feels low at some point or another, going to bed early or sleeping in late, this is not something that should be normal (still, for many folks this is a regular routine.) Chronic fatigue is one of the main symptoms of a parasitic visitor in your body - some other symptoms include: Realize that although you may not feel ill or tired, there may still be parasites within your system. Parasitic infections are masters at hiding while feeding off the human body. So, how can you tell? You can try to take a medical test, but as Dr Andersen (a leading authority on parasitic infections) has said:

    Extractions: Parasites Also indexed as: Giardia, Pinworms, Worms Parasites are organisms larger than yeast or bacteria that can cause infection , usually in the intestines. The most common parasites to infect humans in the United States and Canada are giardia (Giardia lamblia), Entamoeba histolytica, cryptosporidium ( Cryptosporidium spp.), roundworm (Ascaris lumbricoides), hookworm ( Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus ), pinworm (Enterobius vermicularis), and tapeworm ( Taenia spp.). Infection with parasites can be life-threatening in people with severe impairment of immune function . People should consult a physician if they suspect a parasitic infection.

    Extractions: Previous Story ... Related Stories Next Story Source: Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School Of Public Health Date: Stunted growth caused by chronic malnutrition during the first two years of life has an adverse affect on a child’s cognitive ability later in childhood, according to researchers from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and the University of Maryland School of Medicine. The researchers also concluded that early infection with the diarrhea-causing parasite, Giardia lambia, might be associated with diminished cognitive function later in childhood. The study, which appears in the February 16 issue of The Lancet, suggests that efforts to improve cognitive function of school children in developing nations should focus on improving the nutrition and well being of children early in life. “With this study, we were able to track the children as they developed from infancy through age 9. Children with severely stunted growth at age 2 scored 10 points lower on cognitive tests than their peers, which indicates that the detrimental effects of malnutrition linger through childhood,” explains Douglas S. Berkman, ScM, lead author of the study. Berkman conducted his research while studying epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and submitted the research as his master’s thesis. Berkman is now a medical student at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

    Extractions: The aim of the following lines is to remind you of the clinical presentation of the most common imported parasitic skin diseases. But hopefully for nail doctors, the nail apparatus is rarely involved in such instances. Crusted (Norwegian) scabies. In the ordinary form of scabies, the nails are not involved but the distal subungual area may represent a reservoir of mites (collected from skin scratching), potential source for small epidemics. The lesions of the Norwegian scabies have a predilection for areas of pressure and are strikingly different from those of ordinary scabies. The characteristic of this condition is the existence of dystrophic nails which are hyperkeratotic and accompanied by large, psoriasis-like accumulations of scales under the nails. Even after successful treatment of the hyperkeratotic lesions on the skin, the dystrophic nails persist. The mites survive in the subungual material and are a source of reinfestation. Diagnosis is confirmed by microscopic examination of material scraped from the lesion (and from beneath the nails). Treatment of the nails should include frequent trimming of the nails associated with scrubbing twice daily with topical scabicide or even chemical partial nail avulsion using 40 % urea ointment. Oral treatment with ivermectin is a treatment of choice : a single ivermectin dose (12 mg), may be sufficient to reach very high cure rate. This drug has been successfully demonstrated in HIV patients with crusted scabies. However, its effect on the nail involvement has not been mentioned.

    Extractions: (Explore Issue: Volume 9, Number 1) Parasitological investigations of large patient populations are rarely conducted in the United States where the illusion of freedom from parasitic infections still predominate. Such investigations are considerably more common in most third world countries where endemic parasitosis are more readily documented. Table 1.
