Risk Mapping and Spatial Modeling of Human Cystic Echinococcosis in Iran from 2009 to 2018: A GIS-Based Survey
CONCLUSION: The use of maps could provide reliable estimates of at-risk populations. Climatic factors of temperature, humidity, NDVI had a greater impact on the probability of hydatidosis. These factors can be an indicator used to predict the presence of disease. Environmental and climatic factors were associated with echinococcosis.PMID:36466033 | PMC:PMC9682367 | DOI:10.18502/ijpa.v17i3.10620

What Are Underlying Risk Factors for Liver Abscesses?
This study specific excluded patients with ALA or candidemia. LA treatment is usually antibiotics and less invasive surgical techniques such as aspiration or percutaneous catheter drainage, but other treatment including resection is sometimes needed Overall mortality from LA has decreased from 15-40% to as low as 0.8% in the pediatric populations as noted above. Learning Point LA can occur solely because of exposure to infectious organisms but is also commonly associated with hepatobiliary pathology as well. In Northern India study, the “[m]ajority of …children had no predisposing factors for development of LA ...

Biomarkers for schistosomiasis: Towards an integrative view of the search for an effective diagnosis.
Abstract Human schistosomiasis, caused mainly by Schistosoma mansoni, S. japonicum, and S. hematobium, remains a prevalent and serious parasitic disease worldwide. Although it is a debilitating disease, a lack of sensitive methods for the precise diagnosis of active infection cases is important to prevent morbidity. The optimization of new diagnostic approaches may be accomplished by the selection of specific markers. In that manner, markers can be satisfactorily used for detection of different phases of infection, as acute and chronic phases, pre-patent and post-patent phases and after chemotherapy, improving the...
