Cases in Human Parasitology by Judith Stephenson Heelan Pdf

"Cases in Human Parasitology focuses solely on parasites that adversely affect humans. Intended as a supplement to textbooks in human parasitology for undergraduate and medical school courses, this book of 62 case studies is also an important educational reference source for health care scientists active in the field of parasitology. The first four sections cover different groups of parasites, including intestinal protozoa; blood and tissue protozoa; cestodes, trematodes, and intestinal nematodes; and blood and tissue nematodes. The last section covers challenging cases and details non-parasitic infections in patients with symptoms closely resembling those of parasitic infections. Each case study opens with a patient history and description of symptoms, and most are accompanied by a color image of the parasite described. Thought-provoking questions are posed, covering everything from diagnosis and the life cycle of the identified parasite to epidemiology and prevention. The questions stimulate discussion while emphasizing the relationship of diagnosis to patient care. Cases present new, emerging, and well-known parasites, and parasites infrequently encountered in the United States are included. The book concludes with a glossary of descriptive terms. Cases in Human Parasitology is an excellent reinforcement of material learned in a clinical or laboratory setting. It will be useful for pathology residents and infectious disease fellows in preparing for board exams and it will serve in continuing the education of medical technologists involved in diagnostic parasitology"--Publisher's website.

Foundations of Paleoparasitology by Adauto Araújo Pdf

Unprecedented initiative in the world, the book compiles the available knowledge on the subject and presents the state-of-the-art in paleoparasitology – term coined about 30 years ago by Brazilian Fiocruz researcher Luiz Fernando Ferreira, pioneer in this science which is concerned with the study of parasites in the past. Multidisciplinary by essence, paleoparasitology gathers contributions from social scientists, biologists, historians, archaeologists, pharmacists, doctors and many other professionals, either in biomedical or humanities fields. With varied applications such as in evolutionary or migration studies, their results often depend on the association between laboratory findings and cultural remains. The book is divided into four parts - Parasites, Hosts, and Human Environment; Parasites Remains Preserved in Various Materials and Techniques in Microscopy and Molecular Diagnostics; Parasite Findings in Archeological Remains: a paleographic view; and Special Studies and Perspectives. Signed by authors from various countries such as Argentina, USA, Germany and France, the book has chapters devoted to the discoveries of paleoparasitology on all continents.
