O. felineus Infection and Kidney Function | Docwire News Researchers wanted to understand kidney changes with O. felineus infection and whether infection with the parasite is associated with IgA nephropathy (IgAN).

Is there an association between IgA nephropathy and liver fluke infection? #nephrology #kidney #IgAnephropathy #IgAN #liverfluke

9/ Let’s help spread the word about this preventable health issue. Share this thread, raise awareness, and support initiatives that aim to eliminate liver fluke infections in affected regions. 🩺 #HealthEducation #LiverFluke

5/ Why the high prevalence? Cultural practices play a role. Raw fish dishes like koi pla are staples in Northeastern Thailand. Public health campaigns are working to change this, but the habit remains deeply rooted. #HealthEducation #LiverFluke

1/ 🦠 Did you know? A tiny parasite, the liver fluke (Opisthorchis viverrini), is responsible for a significant public health issue in Northeastern Thailand. Let’s explore how this parasite affects the liver and why early detection is crucial. 🩺 #LiverFluke #HealthAwareness
