biology of soil-transmitted helminths: the massive infection.soil-transmitted helminth infections when light-to-moderate usually are well tolerated, but heavy-to massive infections invariably cause disease. a massive infection with ascaris lumbricoides may cause intestinal obstruction, liver abscess, or some other condition requiring surgical treatment; more regularly, however, ascaris disease is a form of malnutrition. trichuris trichiura causes diarrhea and dysentery and, at times, rectal prolapse. the hookworms, necator americanus and ancylostoma duode ...19751052507
[coprologic survey in bilharzia infected children of the adzope region (ivory coast)].during a stool examination survey on 174 bilharzia attained children living in a rural area of ivory coast, 93% were found to have intestinal parasites mainly entamoeba coli, necator americanus and ascaris lumbricoides. the prevalence of the cysts of entamoeba histolytica (4,7%) is lower than the one found in france (7%). concerning the other intestinal parasites, their respective occurrence have been compared with those noted in other regions of ivory coast and of africa.1975170007
mechanism of skin penetration by ancylostoma tubaeforme larvae.skin penetration by infective ancylostoma tubaeforme larvae has been investigated cinematographically and using in vitro techniques. the dermal tissue appears to cause little hinderance to larval migration but complete penetration through the skin from the dermal direction did not occur, although total penetration from the epidermal surface was frequently accomplished. no evidence could be found for enzymic secretions emanating from the worms under conditions that gave positive results from neca ...1975235107
evaluation of the skin test for hookworm as an epidemiological tool.the usefulness of a skin test with larval necator americanus antigen for assessment of hookworm prevalence was evaluated in an endemic area of costa rica. in comparison with standard coprologic techniques employed to survey the population, the skin test detected 83% of infections, showing a fairly satisfactory sensitivity. the overall specificity of the test was 50%, i.e., random. no correlation was found between skin reactivity and hookworm burden. the sensitivity of the test increased moderate ...19751119666
