DOJ Contents Parasitic infections of the nails Bertrand Richert Abstracts of the Fifth Meeting of the European Nail Society:DOJ 9(1): 17C The aim of the following lines is to remind you of the clinical presentation of the most common imported parasitic skin diseases. But hopefully for nail doctors, the nail apparatus is rarely involved in such instances. Crusted (Norwegian) scabies. In the ordinary form of scabies, the nails are not involved but the distal subungual area may represent a reservoir of mites (collected from skin scratching), potential source for small epidemics. The lesions of the Norwegian scabies have a predilection for areas of pressure and are strikingly different from those of ordinary scabies. The characteristic of this condition is the existence of dystrophic nails which are hyperkeratotic and accompanied by large, psoriasis-like accumulations of scales under the nails. Even after successful treatment of the hyperkeratotic lesions on the skin, the dystrophic nails persist. The mites survive in the subungual material and are a source of reinfestation. Diagnosis is confirmed by microscopic examination of material scraped from the lesion (and from beneath the nails). Treatment of the nails should include frequent trimming of the nails associated with scrubbing twice daily with topical scabicide or even chemical partial nail avulsion using 40 % urea ointment. Oral treatment with ivermectin is a treatment of choice : a single ivermectin dose (12 mg), may be sufficient to reach very high cure rate. This drug has been successfully demonstrated in HIV patients with crusted scabies. However, its effect on the nail involvement has not been mentioned.

By Animal News Center (ANC), 5/26/2003 by Amanda Katz A study recently conducted by University of California (UC) researchers to determine why an unusually large number of sea otters are dying off the coast of California has revealed that parasitic infections are responsible for many of the deaths. The sea otter population of California has been dwindling since 1995 and is now only about 2,000. Since January, the bodies of more than 100 dead sea otters have been found along the coastline of the state. Many of the animals died at a time when they would have been most likely to reproduce - between the ages of 4 and 9. "We are very concerned that the otters are dying so frequently of diseases," said UC-Davis Wildlife Health Center Director Jonna Mazet, DVM. "This indicates that the ecosystem is very unhealthy."

73. Introduction To Parasitology A misconception about parasitic infections is that they occur only in tropical areas. Although most parasitic infections are more http://gsbs.utmb.edu/microbook/intopara.htm

Introduction to Parasitology Medical parasitology traditionally has included the study of three major groups of animals: parasitic protozoa, parasitic helminths (worms), and those arthropods that directly cause disease or act as vectors of various pathogens. A parasite is a pathogen that simultaneously injures and derives sustenance from its host. Some organisms called parasites are actually commensals, in that they neither benefit nor harm their host (for example, Entamoeba coli ). Although parasitology had its origins in the zoologic sciences, it is today an interdisciplinary field, greatly influenced by microbiology, immunology, biochemistry, and other life sciences. Infections of humans caused by parasites number in the billions and range from relatively innocuous to fatal. The diseases caused by these parasites constitute major human health problems throughout the world. (For example, approximately 30 percent of the world's population is infected with the nematode Ascaris lumbricoides .) The incidence of many parasitic diseases (e.g., schistosomiasis, malaria) have increased rather than decreased in recent years. Other parasitic illnesses have increased in importance as a result of the AIDS epidemic (e.g., cryptosporidiosis

Common Intestinal Parasitic Infection Causative agents and Mode of transmission There are many intestinal parasites affecting human. The common ones are Roundworms, Pinworms, Hookworms, Tapeworms and Liver flukes. Roundworms Roundworms are round and long, and the length can reach 20 cm. They have pointed ends and are light brown or pink in colour. They live in the human small intestine and their eggs are passed out with stool. Infections are transmitted through ingestion of food contaminated with their eggs. Dirty hands, flies and other insects can also be the transmission media. Pinworms Pinworms are also called threadworms. They are only 1 cm in length, whitish in colour, which resemble a short piece of thread. They inhabit the human large intestine and migrate to the anus at night to lay eggs. This may result in local itchiness. One's fingers may be contaminated during scratching. If one does not wash hands before preparing food, ingestion of these contaminated foods by other persons could result in infection. Children are particularly at risk of getting the illness. Hookworms Hookworms are 1 cm long, round and curved. They inhabit the human intestine sucking the host's blood, causing the host to become anaemic. The eggs are passed out with stool, and hatch into larvae in soil. Human contact with contaminated soil like working barefoot in fields may result in these larvae penetrating through the skin and causing infection.

Research news A new antibiotic improves treatment of parasitic infections Twelve million people around the world are affected by leishmaniasis; 400 million more are at risk of suffering the disease and every year between 60,000 and 100,000 people die from it. Furthermore, nearly 2 million new cases are reported every year. The different forms of leishmaniasis are caused by unicellular parasites of the Leishmania genus, which are mainly spread by biting insects, similar to mosquitoes, called phlebotoms. Clinical manifestations range from slight cutaneous lesions to visceral complications that may lead to the individual's death. Dogs are the main reservoir of the parasite in Spain and in the rest of the Mediterranean basin, the Middle East and South America. Epidemiological studies show that around 70% of dogs in the Mediterranean area are infected. Consequently, eradication of the disease in dogs is considered to be one of the main objectives for improving human health. The researchers have obtained very promising results in a preliminary study on 8 dogs affected by the disease: no adverse affects were detected; the parasitic load is decreased, and it seems to have long term effects, which could be very useful for use in therapies applied to people or animals that live in areas where medicines cannot easily be shipped to (as is the case in the principal areas affected by leishmaniasis).

Mansour, PhD, professor emeritus and Donald E. and Delia B. Baxter Professor (1978-1999), addresses the persistent worldwide problem of parasitic infections and the ongoing challenge of designing drugs to combat them in his new book Chemotherapeutic Targets in Parasites: Contemporary Strategies. Written with Joan MacKinnon Mansour, his wife and research colleague, Mansour advocates the latest molecular strategies for identifying antiparasitic agents and the design of more selective and less toxic drugs. Chapter topics include the search for antiparasitic agents; biophysical, genomic and proteomic analysis of drug targets; and specific types of chemotherapeutic agents and their targets in malaria, trypanosomes, leishmania and other organisms.
