Ivory Tower: Silent threat of parasitic zoonoses in our food chain - The Tribune Zoonotic diseases, those that spread between animals and humans, are not new to us. From historical plagues to recent pandemics like Covid-19, such infections have always posed serious health risks.

Interesting information about the prevalence of #Trichinella and #Toxoplasma in #pigs from India... A bit surprised by the identification of T. nelsoni, a species usually found in Africa...This point should be checked... See www.tribuneindia.com/news/ludhian...

Dickson #Despommier was also a skilful trichinellogist qualifying #Trichinella as "a worm which should be a virus "... World Science will miss him !

Les nématodes, des vers omniprésents à la résistance extrême Les nématodes sont la branche du vivant la plus représentée sur Terre. La majeure partie d’entre eux sont des parasites animaux mais aussi végétaux. Un enjeu crucial pour l’agriculture.

Très intéressant article de vulgarisation sur les nématodes parasites d'animaux et de plantes... certains sont extrêmophiles #trichinella @inrae-france.bsky.social @theconversation.com theconversation.com/les-nematode...

Trichinella and polar bears: a limited risk for humans - PubMed In this review, we identified 63 cases reported since World War II of human trichinellosis linked to the consumption of parasitized polar bear (Ursus maritimus) meat. This low number contrasts to the ...

Human trichinellosis due to Trichinella britovi in southern France after consumption of frozen wild boar meat Six patients were infected with Trichinella britovi in southern France following consumption of frozen wild boar meat, which had been frozen at -35°C for 7 days. Microscopic examination of a sample of...

Very interesting report...The species #Trichinella britovi found in wild boars from Europe and North Africa also shows some resistance to deep-freezing see www.eurosurveillance.org/content/10.2... Six patients were infected after consumption of wild boar meat frozen for 7 days...

Eosinophilia is a hallmark of clinical #trichinellosis. Serious infections may include cardiac, cns, renal, and/or pulmonary involvement. Fatal outcomes from myocarditis, encephalitis, or pneumonia. Thrombotic complications have also been described #trichinella #IDSky

Severe cases:
intestinal 2-7d post meat ingestion: GI sx & muscle stage;
>7d post ingestion: severe muscle pain, conjunctival/orbital sx, headache, suspense, cough, hepatomegaly #trichinella #trichinellosis #idsky

Most people are asymptomatic.Mild infection (<10 larvae/g of muscle) can be subclinical. incubation period is generally 7-30 days; it varies with # of ingested larvae (which correlates with how well meat has been cooked), host immune status & species of #Trichinella #trichinellosis #IDsky

#Trichinella tissue nematode infection via ingestion of undercooked pig, horses, bear, walrus: diarrhea, myositis, fever, periorbital edema #IDsky No drugs are available for tx of newborn larvae or maturing first-stage larvae. Corticosteroids & mebendazole are sometimes utilized in severe dz

Certainly yes! We identified here doi.org/10.1017/s002..., 63 #trichinellosis cases since WW II linked to #polar bear meat. Low number contrasting to numerous cases related to black or brown bears meat. Larval #Trichinella muscular burden is lower in polar bears compared to other bear species.
