Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by a single-celled parasite called Toxoplasma gondii. [cdc.gov]
Treatment
Reference is easy thanks to a unique 3-part structure covering general aspects of treatment; reviews of every agent; and details of treatments of particular infections. [books.google.com]
Treatment Toxoplasmosis does not always require treatment, especially in healthy individuals. [medicalnewstoday.com]
Daraprim is the standard first treatment for toxoplasmosis, in combination with an antibiotic called sulfadiazine. There are alternative treatments, but there is less data supporting their efficacy. Dr. [nytimes.com]

EEG and imaging also improved with treatment of infection. Conclusions: Rare case reports of Toxoplasma gondii causing CNS symptoms exist in the immunocompetent. [neurology.org]
Prognosis
[…] has a different prognosis. [en.wikipedia.org]
This decreased risk might be achieved through mucosal immune response modulation by HLA molecular expression. [16] Moreover, HLA-E*0103 is associated with better prognosis for HIV infection, [17] although the mechanisms underlying this effect are unknown [jgid.org]

Study population Since 2009, our group has been conducting a molecular epidemiology study of human blood-borne viruses and blood-borne pathogens (e.g., T. gondii ) by collecting epidemiological-clinical data and blood samples from high-risk communities [jgid.org]
Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology [ edit ] Virulence versus symbiosis [ edit ] In the spectrum of optimal virulence, vertical transmission tends to evolve benign symbiosis. It is, therefore, a critical concept for evolutionary medicine. [en.wikipedia.org]
Prevention
Vaccines can help prevent some viral forms. [icdlist.com]
Special attention is given to the prevention and treatment of these diseases found in developing countries as well as the latest findings about new antimicrobial agents, gram-negative infections and their management, and recommendations for immunization [books.google.com]
The distinction is important because when transmission is primarily during or after birth, medical intervention can help prevent infections in the infant. [en.wikipedia.org]
