6. Leishmania infection in humans, dogs and sandflies in a visceral leishmaniasis endemic area in Maranhão, Brazil
Leishmania infection in humans, dogs and sandflies was examined in the endemic visceral leishmaniasis (VL) municipality of Raposa, state of Maranhão, Brazil. In this study, we examined Leishmania chagasi infection in the blood serum of both humans and Canis familiaris and the natural Leishmania sp. infection rate in the sandfly vector, Lutzomyia longipalpis

7. Anti-Leishmania titers and positive skin tests in patients cured of kala-azar
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), also known as kala-azar, is an important public health problem. If not treated, virtually all clinically symptomatic patients die within months. The diagnosis is based on the Montenegro skin test (MST) and anti-Leishmania titers. Nevertheless, the time required for cured individuals living in a leishmaniasis-endemic area to prese

8. Identificação de polimorfismos genéticos com impacto no desenvolvimento e progressão da leishmaniose visceral em indivíduos de áreas endêmicas do Maranhão e Piauí / Identificação de polimorfismos genéticos com impacto no desenvolvimento e progressão da leishmaniose visceral em indivíduos de áreas endêmicas do Maranhão e Piauí
A leishmaniose visceral constitui grave doença infecciosa causada por um protozoário parasita intracelular obrigatório. Alguns fatores podem alterar a gravidade das manifestações clínicas, sendo um deles a predisposição genética. Este estudo investigou polimorfismos dos genes TGFB1, IL8 e IL6, que são citocinas relacionadas com o desencadeamento e

9. CO-INFECÇÃO POR Leishmania sp. EM INDIVÍDUOS VIVENDO COM HIV/Aids / CO-INFECTION BY Leishmania sp. IN PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV / AIDS
A co-infecção Leishmania-HIV/Aids é um sério problema de saúde pública em quase todo o mundo. A Leishmaniose Visceral é a forma clínica das leishmanioses que está mais associada ao HIV/Aids, sendo os casos de co-infecção considerados subestimados, uma vez que, a leishmaniose não se constitui doença definidora de Aids. Foi realizado um estudo des

11. Determination of the parasite load by PCR in semiquantitative Different tissues of dogs naturally infected with Leishmania (Leishmania) chagasi and its association with clinical signs of disease. / Determinação da carga parasitária por PCR semiquantitativa em diferentes tecidos de cães naturalmente infectados por Leishmania(Leishmania) chagasi e sua associação com sinais clínicos da doença.
The municipal district of Raposa located in the State of Maranhão, Brazil, is an endemic area of human and canine visceral leishmaniasis. Dogs are considered to be the principal Leishmania chagasi reservoir in this location. The objective of this study was to examine the relative levels of parasitic DNA in different tissues of infected dogs and their associ
