TL;DR: Since the introduction of current (and past) hydatid control campaigns, there have been clear technological improvements made in the diagnosis and treatment of human and animal cystic echinococcosis, the diagnosis of canine echinocentrosis, and the genetic characterisation of strains and vaccination against Echinococcus granulosus in animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This large-scale field study demonstrated early age of tapeworm and cysticercosis infections in humans, and short duration of taeniasis infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effective, single-dose treatment or porcine cysticercosis with oxfendazole.
Armando Gonzales,Hector H. Garcia,Robert H. Gilman,Cesar M. Gavidia,Victor C. W. Tsang,Teresa Bernal,Néstor Falcón,Martha Romero,Maria T. Lopez-Urbina +8 more
TL;DR: Oxfendazole provides, for the first time, a practical, effective, inexpensive, and single-dose therapy for porcine cysticercosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taenia solium cysticercosis hotspots surrounding tapeworm carriers: clustering on human seroprevalence but not on seizures.
Andres G. Lescano,Hector H. Garcia,Hector H. Garcia,Robert H. Gilman,Robert H. Gilman,Cesar M. Gavidia,Cesar M. Gavidia,Victor C. W. Tsang,Silvia Rodriguez,Lawrence H. Moulton,Manuel V. Villaran,Silvia M. Montano,Silvia M. Montano,Armando E. Gonzalez,Armando E. Gonzalez +14 more
TL;DR: A significant human cysticercosis seroprevalence gradient surrounding current tapeworm carriers is observed, although cysticERCosis-related seizures did not cluster around carriers, due to differences in the timing of the two outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Attempts were made to develop an animal model for Cyclospora cayetanensis to identify a practical laboratory host for studying human cyclosporiasis, and it is concluded that none of the animals tested is susceptible to infection with C. cayelensis.
