1. In vitro ovicidal and larvicidal activity of Carica papaya seed hexane extract against Strongyloides venezuelensis
ABSTRACT Strongyloidiasis is a human parasitic disease caused by the helminth Strongyloides stercoralis whose treatment is particularly difficult in immunosuppressed patients due to their low responsiveness to conventional therapy. Carica papaya and its isolated compounds benzyl isothiocyanate, carpaine and carpasemine are promising compound for the treatmen

2. Gnathostomiasis: an emerging infectious disease relevant to all dermatologists
Abstract: Gnathostomiasis is a parasitic infection caused by the third larval stage of nematodes of the genus Gnathostoma. The disease is endemic in some countries around the world. In the American continent, the majority of cases is concentrated in Mexico, Ecuador, and Peru. However, due to increasing traveling either at the intercontinental or intracontine

3. Avaliação da aceitabilidade da terapia larval no tratamento de feridas / Evaluation of the acceptability of larval therapy in wound care
A terapia larval (TL) é uma bioterapia aplicada há centenas de anos e compreende na utilização de larvas vivas de moscas no tratamento de feridas de variadas etiologias. Os objetivos gerais deste estudo foram: avaliar a aceitação ou recusa da terapia larval na cicatrização de feridas entre médicos e enfermeiros dos CAIS (Centro de Atendimento Integr

5. Efeito de quatro anitibioticos sobre larvas de Chrysomya putoria (Wiedewann) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) utilizadas em bioterapia
Biotherapy or maggot debridement therapy is the use of live blow-fly larvae for treating non-healing wounds. This kind of treatment was discovered accidentally in battle field conditions, was commonly practiced during 1930?s and 1940?s and presently has been used in several countries. Larvae applied in the wound promote healing by several mechanisms such as

6. Larval therapy from antiquity to the present day: mechanisms of action, clinical applications and future potential
When modern medicine fails, it is often useful to draw ideas from ancient treatments. The therapeutic use of fly larvae to debride necrotic tissue, also known as larval therapy, maggot debridement therapy or biosurgery, dates back to the beginnings of civilisation. Despite repeatedly falling out of favour largely because of patient intolerance to the treatme

7. MRI in cerebral toxocaral disease.
Toxocara canis, the common roundworm in the dog, can cause "visceral larva migrans" syndrome in humans, which may include generalised illness, eosinophilia, and symptoms arising from larval invasion of different organs. Of these, the clinically most important are liver, lungs, eyes and CNS. Involvement of the different parts of the CNS in human toxocaral dis

8. In Vitro Activities of Benzimidazoles against Echinococcus multilocularis Metacestodes
Alveolar echinococcosis, caused by the larval (metacestode) stage of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis, is a lethal parasitosis of the liver prevalent in the Northern Hemisphere. For chemotherapy the benzimidazole derivatives mebendazole and albendazole were introduced, and their use has resulted in a significant improvement in the survival rates. How

9. Quorum-Quenching Acylase Reduces the Virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a Caenorhabditis elegans Infection Model▿
The Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 gene pvdQ encodes an acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) acylase capable of degrading N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone by cleaving the AHL amide. PvdQ has been proven to function as a quorum quencher in vitro in a number of phenotypic assays. To address the question of whether PvdQ also shows quorum-quenching properties in v
