The typical clinical and radiological findings of nervous system infection by selected cestodes, trematodes, and protozoans will be reviewed (Table 1). Treatment of these infections varies greatly, from symptomatic management to surgical extraction.
1 sty 2013 · What T. gondii does to manipulate its rodent host is highly germane, as it appears to be doing the same thing in human brains. Papers in this issue present evidence that T. gondii also alters human behaviour and may be involved in the etiology of serious mental disorders such as schizophrenia.
30 kwi 2018 · Neuro-parasitology is an emerging branch of science that deals with parasites that can control the nervous system of the host. It offers the possibility of discovering how one species (the parasite) modifies a particular neural network, and thus particular behaviors, of another species (the host).
15 maj 2018 · Imagine a parasite that makes an animal change its habits, guard the parasite’s offspring or even commit suicide. While mind-control may sound like something out of a science fiction movie, the phenomenon is very real — and has spawned a new field, neuro-parasitology.
21 sie 2023 · This review focuses less on the diseases that neuroparasites induce and more on the process of their neurological manipulation. We also investigate the fundamental mechanisms of host manipulation in the developing field of neuroparasitology, which blends neuroscience and parasitology.
7 sty 2018 · It is remarkable that the precise manipulation observed does not require direct entry into the insect brain and can even occur when the parasite is outside the body. We suggest that a spatial view of manipulation provides a holistic approach to examining such interactions.
