TLDR
Temperature plays an important role in the post-mortem motility of A. pegreffii larvae in anchovies, and the importance of the adoption of rules to prevent human anisakiasis was underlined.About:

Molecular Epidemiology of Anisakis and Anisakiasis: An Ecological and Evolutionary Road Map.
TL;DR: This review addresses the biodiversity, biology, distribution, ecology, epidemiology, and consumer health significance of the so far known species of Anisakis, both in their natural hosts and in human accidental host populations, worldwide.

TL;DR: The QRA suggests that previously reported figures of 500 anisakiasis per year in Europe is a considerable underestimate, and can be used by policy makers and informs industry, health professionals and consumers about this underdiagnosed zoonosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisakis Nematodes in Fish and Shellfish- from infection to allergies
TL;DR: This review provides an update on current knowledge on Anisakis as a food-borne parasite with special focus on the increasingly reported diversity of fish and crustacean hosts, allergens and immunological cross-reactivity with invertebrate proteins rendering this parasite a significant public health issue.

TL;DR: The epidemiological survey was carried out to provide the basis for analysis and prediction of consumer exposure risk due to the presence of anisakid nematodes in fish from European wild-catch fisheries, and represents the largest and most comprehensive epidemiological data compilation of an isakids ever generated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisakis – immunology of a foodborne parasitosis
TL;DR: This review summarizes the immunopathology associated with Anisakis infection and suggests that exposure to fish should be avoided.

The CLUSTAL_X windows interface: flexible strategies for multiple sequence alignment aided by quality analysis tools.
TL;DR: ClUSTAL X is a new windows interface for the widely-used progressive multiple sequence alignment program CLUSTAL W, providing an integrated system for performing multiple sequence and profile alignments and analysing the results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parasitology meets ecology on its own terms: Margolis et al. revisited.
TL;DR: Suggestions for various terms used by parasitologists when describing the ecology of parasites are provided in an attempt to foster consistent use and to make terms used in parasite ecology easier to interpret for those who study free-living organisms.

TL;DR: Over 1.2 million previously unknown genes represented in these samples, including more than 782 new rhodopsin-like photoreceptors are identified, suggesting substantial oceanic microbial diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying parasites in samples of hosts
TL;DR: Prevalence, mean intensity, and indices of parasite distribution (such as median intensity) are suitable descriptors to quantify parasites in a sample of hosts but these measures have different biological interpretations and need different statistical methods to be compared between samples.
Book ChapterDOI
Advances and trends in the molecular systematics of anisakid nematodes, with implications for their evolutionary ecology and host-parasite co-evolutionary processes.
TL;DR: Examples in which anisakid nematodes recognized genetically at the species level in definitive and intermediate/paratenic hosts from various geographical areas of the Boreal and Austral regions and their infection levels have been used as biological indicators of fish stocks and food-web integrity in areas at high versus low levels of habitat disturbance are presented.
