Cross-infection of<i>Ascaris</i>spp. in humans and pigs from a Guarani indigenous village in southern Brazil

2024-06-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Ascaris lumbricoides and Ascaris suum are nematode parasites that infect millions of people and pigs worldwide, respectively. Reports of cross-infection between the two host species has stimulated molecular epidemiological studies of the Ascaris genus. In this study, we evaluated the dynamics of Ascaris transmission between Guarani indigenous schoolchildren, pigs, and the environment of a villa...
