TL;DR: There was no significant difference in age, antecedent stunting, percentage with diarrhea, or duration of diarrhea for episodes with human genotype, compared with those of zoonotic Cryptosporidium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk Factors for Toxoplasma gondii Infection in the United States
Jeffrey L. Jones,Valerie Dargelas,Jacquelin M. Roberts,Cindy Press,Jack S. Remington,Jack S. Remington,Jose G. Montoya,Jose G. Montoya +7 more
TL;DR: In the United States, exposure to certain raw or undercooked foods and exposure to kittens are risk factors for T. gondii infection and knowledge of these risk factors will help to target prevention efforts.

TL;DR: Waterborne disease surveillance and outbreak detection were recently reclassified to better characterize water system deficiencies and risk factors; data were analyzed for trends in outbreak occurrence, etiologies, and deficiencies during 1971 to 2006.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Genetic variation at the two loci suggests that most cases of PCP do not result from infections acquired early in life, that infections are actively acquired from a relatively common source (humans or the environment), and that humans, while not necessarily involved in direct infection of other humans, are nevertheless important in the transmission cycle of P. carinii f.
