Important points for parasites• Life cycle• Definitive host• Intermediate host• Reservoir hosts• Vectors• How humans are infected• Migration pattern and where adults live in
humans• Diagnostic form in humans• Geographical distribution

Classification of Parasites• Protozoa - single celled eukaryotes
– mastigophora - Giardia lamblia– sarcodina - Entamoeba histolytica– sporozoa - Toxoplasma gondii, Cryptosporidium sp.
Plasmodium sp. (malaria)• Helminths - multi-cell eukaryotes (Worms)
– nematodes - round worms (Ascaris lumbricoides)– platyhelminths - flat worms
• trematodes - (flukes) Schistosoma sp.• Cestodes - (tapeworms) - Taenia sp. (pork tapeworm.)

Entamoeba histolytica
![Page 7: Dental Optometry Parasitology](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062218/5681638a550346895dd47a9b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Entamoeba histolytica/dispar• Humans are the only host• world wide distribution• fecal oral or water borne - cysts are the infectious
form• diagnostic forms are cysts or trophozoites in
stool or serology• Causes amebic dysentery • invade and lyse tissue either in the colon or
extraintestinal sites usually liver or lung

Giardia lamblia• The most commonly diagnosed and important
parasite of humans in the US• Transmission is fecal oral or water borne• Daycare centers• Fifty percent asymptomatic - 2 - 15% incidence• Symptoms - frothy fatty diarrhea - malabsorption,
osmotic diarrhea • Reservoir hosts - beaver and other animals• Diagnostic forms are cysts and trophozoites in stool
- noninvasive

Overview of Malaria Epidemiology
• 2.7 million deaths/year mostly children in Africa
• 300 to 500 million cases annually• 90 percent of them in sub-Saharan Africa• More than 40 percent of the world's
population lives in areas where malaria naturally occurs
• 1000 cases/year in the US

Malaria prevention decreased contact with mosquito
• Night biting Anopheles mosquitos are the only intermediate host
• Insecticide-treated nets – cheap and, if used correctly, an effective means of
preventing malaria.• Indoor house-spraying with residual insecticides
(e.g. DDT) – Mosquito resistance– Ecological concerns
• wearing of protective clothing and insect repellents at dawn and dusk

the mucosa of the small intestine• Autoinfection can lead to hyperinfection syndrome • Infections can be subclinical for decades• Eosinophilia is common• Diagnostic forms are larvae in stool or sputum

Schistosoma sp. (blood flukes)• S. mansoni, S. haematobium and S. japonicum• Geographic distribution - tropics• Adults (1 - 2.5 cm long) reside in conjugal bliss in
venules• Infection is by cercaria penetrating intact skin• Snails are the intermediate host - humans acquire
infection in snail infested water • Zoonotic - except S. haematobium• Diagnostic form is ova in stool or urine or serology

Taenia soliumpork tape worm
• Found where ever people eat uncooked pork and allow pigs to scavenge human waste
• Humans can be both definitive host and intermediate host
• Infective forms for humans– cysticerci in pork - adult tape worm (10 years)– ova from human stool - cysticerci in humans
• Adult tapeworms are 2 - 7 meters long• Diagnostic forms are ova in stool or passed worm
segments. CAT/MRI scans for cysticerci
