| evaluation of the dirofilaria immitis filarial skin test antigen in the diagnosis of filariasis. | conflicting opinions on the value of a skin test in the diagnosis of human filariasis emphasized the need for a careful examination of this procedure. the evaluation was made by asking workers in different countries to use an antigen prepared from dirofilaria immitis in groups of people who could be examined for parasitic infection.in one non-endemic area, repeated tests over a 1-year period did not lead to sensitization, but the reactions of individuals varied from test to test. in endemic area ... | 1971 | 4274286 |

| human pulmonary dirofilariasis. a case report and review of the literature. | a case of pulmonary dirofilariasis in a 48-year-old woman is presented. this rare pulmonary disorder is caused by dirofilaria immitis, the canine heartworm. a review of the literature revealed 40 documented cases, most of which have occurred in the united states within the past 10 years. the incidence of pulmonary dirofilariasis appears to be increasing; thus, this entity represents an important zoonosis and indicates a need for familiarity with the pathologic features of the lesions and the mor ... | 1975 | 1163896 |

| prevalence of dirofilaria immitis in a stray dog population in western new york. | in a survey in 1973 undertaken to determine the prevalence of dirofilaria immitis in 100 dogs from a public pound in western new york, 2 dogs were found to be positive. microfilariae of dipetalonema sp were not present. hearts and pulmonary blood vessels were dissected for adult worms, and blood samples were examined for microfilariae, using a modified knott technique. although adult heartworms and microfilariae have been recovered from wild foxes, coyotes, and wolves in new york, this is the fi ... | 1975 | 1170797 |
| cell-mediated immunity to dirofilaria immitis. | cell-mediated immunity to dirofilaria immitis (di) in guinea pigs was confirmed by the migration inhibition test (mit), the blast transformation test (btt), the delayed skin reaction, and the skin reaction by passive transfer with sensitized peritoneal exudate (pe) cells. all migration inhibition (mi) positive cases were always associated with positive skin reactions and two cases showed positive skin reactions without mi. the cellular antibody confirmed by mit first appeared on the 4th day afte ... | 1975 | 1172086 |
| experimental infection of cats with dirofilaria immitis. | natural and experimental infections of cats with dirofilaria immitis have been reported. experimental infections of d. immitis in cats with the subsequent detection of microfilaremia and immediate skin hypersensitivity to antigen to d. immitis were produced. cutaneous nodules and chylothorax were also detected in some infected cats. adult worm recoveries were low and dead worms were found in some cats indicating the unsuitability of the cat as a host for d. immitis. however, one successful mosqu ... | 1975 | 1172533 |

| natural infection of aedes trivittatus (coq) with dirofilaria immitis in central iowa. | juveniles identified as dirofilaria immitis were recovered from aedes trivittatus and anopheles punctipennis collected co2-baited cdc light traps in ames, iowa, during 10 days in july and august 1975. ae. trivittatus composed 58.7% of the mosquitoes collected, and d. immitis was recovered from 18 of 393 (4.6%) dissected and from 7 of 31 pools (911 mosquitoes; 0.77%). approximately 1.0% of the ae. trivittatus collected harbored infective-stage juveniles, and as many as 27 were recovered from a si ... | 1976 | 1263039 |

| incidence of canine heartworm (dirofilaria immitis) in malaysia. | a total of 764 adult dogs were examined for microfilariae and adult worms of d immitis and 197 (25-8 per cent) were found to be infected. direct blood examinations revealed only 47-2 per cent of the infected dogs whereas the blood serum examination detected 57-8 per cent of them. these results showed that the absence of circulating microfilariae could not be relied upon to be an accurate indication of the absence of patent heartworm infection. the average number of heartworms per dog was 5-5 wit ... | 1976 | 943885 |
| analysis of the microfilarial periodicity of dirofilaria immitis. | microfilarial periodicity displayed by dogs infected with dirofilaria immitis was analyzed using the methematical model proposed by sasa and tanaka (s.e. asian j. trop. med. and pub. health 4, 1974, 518-536) except that pearson's product-moment correlation test was substituted for their chi-square analysis to estimate goodness of fit. samples were drawn at 3 hour intervals for periods of 24 or 48 hours in a series of 10 studies conducted on 4 dogs. no significant differences were observed in mic ... | 1976 | 954440 |

| changes in hookworm distribution in surinam. | during the months may-july, 1974, a follow-up investigation was carried out on hookworm infections in dogs and cats in order to study changes in the hookworm distribution in surinam since 1967. fifty-two cats and 152 dogs were examined for the presence of helminths in the oesophagus, small intestine, coecum and heart. in total 15,942 helminths were isolated; most of these (14,006) were hookworms belonging to the species ancylostoma caninum, a. tubaeforme, a. ceylanicum and a. braziliense. the av ... | 1976 | 987625 |
| a new immunodiagnostic test in onchocerciasis. | the radioallergosorbent (rast) technique was used as a diagnostic test for onchocerciasis. ige antibodies for dirofilaria immitis antigen were found in thirty-one of fifty-seven (54%) affected patients. | 1976 | 1016289 |
| killing effect of normal peritoneal exudate cells in guinea pigs on microfilariae of dirofilaria immitis evoked by passive transfer of immune humoral factor. | parasiticidal activity of normal peritoneal exudate cells on microfilariae of dirofilaria immitis in diffusion chambers implanted into normal guinea pigs was evoked by intraperitoneal passive transfer of anti-d. immitis serum. the immune serum was fractionated into supernatant and sediment by ammonium sulfate precipitation. the parasiticidal effect was reproduced with the supernatant and, to a less extent, with the sediment. anti-d. immitis serum from the animals sensitized 5 days before was als ... | 1976 | 1030746 |
| a comparison of the efficiency of the nuclepore and millipore filtration systems for detecting microfilariae. | using brugia pahangi or dirofilaria immitis as the test organisms no significant difference could be detected between nuclepore and millipore filters. it was found that 0.7% of microfilariae passed through the millipore and 1% through the nuclepore filters. no microfilariae were lost from the nuclepore membrane during the staining process. | 1976 | 1030840 |
| [significance of passive hemagglutination and its prospectives in lymphatic filariasis]. | the authors analyze the data concerning 219 sera, that they have tested in passive hemagglutination, with as antigen a dirofilaria immitis proteic extract, in french polynesia. besides its light sensitivity, this method does appear very interesting. it points out: --first, that there is a gaussian distribution of the results found at various dilutions, both by "filarian" and "non filarian" people. therefore, this distribution is a feasible and practical parameter for evaluation of the filariasis ... | 1976 | 1037386 |
