• Anemia

  Abstract Hookworms, bloodfeeding intestinal nematodes, are a leading cause of iron deficiency anemia in the developing world. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  It includes melena, pallor of mucosae, hyperpnea, poor exercise tolerance, anasarca, and anemia. Called also hookworm disease. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

  Common Name: Dog Hookworm Clade: Clade V Disease: Hookworms attach to capillary beds in the small intestine of a host where they suck blood resulting in anemia. The dog hookworm can be used as a disease model for the human hookworm. Animal parasite. [nematode.net]

  When considering disability-adjusted-life-years (DALYs), neglected tropical diseases, including hookworm, rank among diarrheal diseases, ischemic heart disease, malaria, and tubercolosis as one of the most important health problems of the developing world [web.stanford.edu]

  For example, it is estimated that the morbidity attributable to hookworms, Trichuris and Ascaris, the three most prevalent parasitic nematodes in humans globally, could be as high as 39 disability adjusted life years (DALY) [1]. [journals.plos.org]

  Hc -NIM-1 is expressed in the hypodermis of the pharyngeal region of the adult worm [50]. Lastly, SSH contigs 0099 and 0032 were among the most highly up-regulated mRNAs in activated L3 of A. caninum, with log ratios of ∼4.7 and 5.9, respectively. [journals.plos.org]

  When A. duodenale is transmitted orally, the early migrations of the larvae cause Wakana disease which is characterized by nausea, vomiting, pharyngeal irritation, cough, dyspnea, and hoarseness [10]. [web.stanford.edu]

  Abstract Ancylostoma caninum is responsible for cases with eosinophilic enteritis (EE) and unexplained abdominal pain with peripheral eosinophilia in man. [pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Occasionally, a larva has completed the cycle through the lungs and into the intestine of humans and developed into a mature adult causing eosinophilia and abdominal pain - a condition known as eosinophilic enteritis. (Croese, J. et al. 1994. [parasite.org.au]

• Diarrhea

  The image below (image 1) shows a dog 'straining to defecate' and producing mucoid, slimy, blood-filled faeces (this particular dog was actually producing the horrendous, bloody, slime-filled diarrhea seen in image 4). [pet-informed-veterinary-advice-online.com]

  Once the larvae reach the small intestine of the host and begin to mature, the infected individual may suffer from diarrhea and other gastrointestinal discomfort [5]. [web.stanford.edu]

  Usually these cause an aberrant infection, “creeping eruption” or cutaneous larva migrans. This disease is characterized by serpiginous tunnels in the skin caused by migrations of larvae that are unable to penetrate the innermost layers. Read More [britannica.com]

• Skin Disease

  A skin disease caused by larvae of Ancylostoma caninum is naturally of much interest in itself. [jamanetwork.com]

• Skin Lesion

  The skin lesions were pruritic and erythematous, and had migrated to the chest and abdomen. The histopathological findings showed only lymphocytic and eosinophilic infiltrations in the dermis of the biopsied skin lesion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Ancylostoma Caninum

  A Western blot with anti-Ancylostoma caninum surface-associated antigen-1 specific antiserum showed that native Ancylostoma caninum surface-associated antigen-1 protein is expressed by both L(3) and adult hookworms; RT-PCR confirmed that the mRNA is transcribed [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
