Presentation
We find that many putative tapeworm drug targets are also present in S. erinaceieuropaei, allowing possible cross application of new drugs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Genome statistics are presented in Table 1 and genome quality assessment in the Materials and methods section. [doi.org]
The team also identified a new gene fusion that presents a novel drug target for multiple cancers, including brain and ovarian cancers. [sanger.ac.uk]

Vietnamese
Vietnamese people also traditionally practice using frog flesh as dressings for open wounds or eyes for medical purposes [ 15 ]. Water hygiene is another problem since clean water is not accessible in some areas. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Soft Tissue Swelling
Skin and soft tissue swelling was the most common symptom, followed by central nervous system lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
-
Collapse
To investigate the potential for collapsed regions or split alleles in the genome, we examined coverage of a subset of SMALT mapped data (lane 882_7) across 5-kb binned regions in scaffolds that were 6 kb or longer. [doi.org]
Gastrointestinal
-
Epigastric Pain
The patient had slight epigastric pain migrating to right lower quadrant of the abdomen but no nausea or vomiting. In the first few days in hospital, his stool was watery but no mucus or blood was seen. Physical examination was normal. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Skin
-
Erythema
The patient complained of a painless erythema caudal of the umbilicus with a palpable subcutaneous cherry-sized lump. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Suggestibility
Furthermore, the uncorrelated log-normal relaxed molecular-clock model suggested that divergence between Spirometra and Diphyllobothrium began in the late Miocene. Copyright 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Century burial pit in Sidon, Lebanon The team report that three individuals were Europeans of diverse origins, including Spain and Sardinia, four were near Easterners who had been recruited to the fight, and two individuals had mixed genetic ancestry, suggesting [sanger.ac.uk]
It has been suggested that this accounts for the reduced sensitivity of the cestode larval stage to benzimidazole drugs [ 17 ]. [doi.org]
Treatment
Following the treatment of tapeworm, symptoms were quickly resolved. Stool tests for ova and parasite strobila two weeks later were negative. The patient fully recovered and was discharged some days later. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We examined the known targets of drugs in the parasite genome and used this to predict how this parasite would have responded to chemotherapy-based treatments. [doi.org]

The results give more certainty for the use of specific gene fusions to diagnose and guide the treatment of patients. 15 May 2019 Honouring research excellence: Dr Sam Behjati wins award for work to unravel the identity and origin of childhood cancers [sanger.ac.uk]
Prognosis
However, the exact species of worm can affect the prognosis for the patient. S. erinaceieuropaei is the more common causative agent. S. proliferum is the most mysterious of the sparganosis-causing worms, as its adult form has never been observed. [doi.org]
Etiology
Abstract The present study was performed to compare the mitochondrial genomes between 2 Spirometra tapeworms, Spirometra erinaceieuropaei and Spirometra decipiens (Cestoidea: Diphyllobothriidae), which larval stages are important etiological agents of [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epidemiology
Eclectic volumes are supplemented by thematic volumes on such topics as Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems in Epidemiology. [books.google.es]
Further research to determine the exact epidemiological situation in Vietnam is necessary to facilitate appropriate preventive measures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Recording such events and sharing molecular data will be critical for a greater understanding of the epidemiology of infections and to help clinicians understand the potential diagnoses in their geographical area. [doi.org]

It is possible that some of these could have been prevented if the infection was recognized at an earlier stage. [doi.org]
