| 5 | Eurytrematosis: An emerging and neglected disease in South Brazil显示文摘The trematodes of the genus Eurytrema are low pathogenic pancreatic parasites, but can be related to a decrease in cattle productive performance and eventually death. Parasitized animals develop chronic interstitial pancreatitis and may show a productive performance drop and emaciation. Human infection by Eurytrema sp. has already been reported in other countries as an incidental finding during autopsy or routine tests, but the parasite has not been found in humans in Brazil. However, it is possible that a large number of people could be infected, since parasitological tests have low sensitivity and the parasite is neglected as a pathogen for humans and even animals. Attempts to control and treat Eurytrematosis have generally presented low effectiveness. With the aim to control the disease and provide more information regarding its pathogenicity, our research group is developing a number of studies about Eurytrema spp. We hope to determine the damage in productivity, as well as, establish an efficient protocol for treatment and control of Eurytrematosis based on immunoprophylaxis and antiparasitical drug therapy. | Claiton Ismael Schwertz Neuber Jose Lucca Aleksandro Schafer da Silva Piotr Baska Gustavo Bonetto Mateus Eloir Gabriel Fábio Centofanti Ricardo Evandro Mendes | 2015 | World Journal of Experimental Medicine2015，5，3： | 0 |
