Liver hydatid disease is caused by the larva of the dog tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus. Humans can become infected by ingesting the tapeworm's eggs from contact with infected dog feces. The larva travels to the liver where it forms a hydatid cyst. Symptoms are usually mild until complications occur. Diagnosis involves serological tests and imaging such as ultrasound or CT scan which can identify cyst characteristics. Treatment options include medication, minimally invasive techniques such as PAIR, or surgery depending on cyst location and size.
Hydatid cyst disease
Hydatid cysts are most commonly found in the liver and lungs, although they may also occur in other organs, bones and muscles. The cysts can increase in size to 5 – 10 cm or more and may survive for decades. Non-specific signs include loss of appetite, weight loss and weakness

Infectious cystic disease
This document discusses two infectious cystic diseases: hydatid disease and neurocysticercosis.
Hydatid disease is caused by the larval stage of the Echinococcus tapeworm and forms cysts, especially in the liver and lungs. It is typically asymptomatic but cyst rupture can cause anaphylactic shock. Diagnosis is by imaging and treatment involves surgical removal or medication with albendazole.
Neurocysticercosis occurs when the tapeworm Taenia solium infects the central nervous system, causing cysts that can lead to seizures. Diagnosis is by imaging and immunoblot assay while treatment involves albendazole with or without steroids, along with anti-
Surgical management of hepatic hydatid disease
Hydatidosis is strictly a zoonosis. Humans are an accidental host. The disease is endemic in rural agricultural areas. However if acquired by humans, it can cause extensive spread affecting a wide range of organs with predilection for the liver. Managing such cases requires a sound fundamental knowledge of the parasite and its pathogenicity. It is essential that surgeons who deal with such cases have a good working knowledge of the disease. The approaches to hepatic hydatids with respect to the principles of surgical treatment are presented in this article.
Hydatid cyst
This document discusses hydatid cyst, which is caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. It can infect the liver and lungs in humans. The life cycle involves dogs and other carnivores as the definitive host, where the adult worm lives in the small intestine, and sheep as the common intermediate host. Humans can become infected through contact with dog feces or contaminated food or water. Symptoms vary but include abdominal pain and hepatomegaly. Diagnosis involves imaging like ultrasound or CT scan. Treatment involves albendazole, surgery to remove the cyst while preventing spillage, or percutaneous drainage with scolicidal agents. Complications include rupture, infection, and anaphylaxis.
Hydatid cyst
Pulmonary hydatid cyst is caused by the larval stage of the Echinococcus tapeworm. It is most commonly caused by E. granulosus. The lungs are a common site of infection after the liver. Symptoms include chest pain, cough, and dyspnea. Diagnosis involves imaging like chest X-ray and CT scan showing cysts. Serological tests can also detect antibodies. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for large cysts, while smaller cysts may be treated with albendazole. Prevention involves avoiding contact with stray dogs that can spread the tapeworm.

Presentation1.pptx. hydatid disease.
This document discusses hydatid disease, caused by a tapeworm that infects dogs, dingoes and foxes. It forms cysts in the internal organs of intermediate hosts like humans, especially the liver and lungs. The disease requires surgery for treatment. Control involves eliminating the tapeworm from dogs. With better control in livestock and dogs, wildlife are becoming a relatively more important threat to human health. Symptoms vary depending on the infected organ, such as jaundice and pain for liver involvement, and coughing for lung cysts. Prevention focuses on hygiene and deworming dogs. The document then examines clinical signs and images of hydatid cysts in various body organs.
Hydatid disease
Three types of echinococcosis
1. E.granulosus – cystic echinococcosis; commonest (aka unilocular echinococcosis)
2. E. multilocularis – alveolar echinococcosis (aka multilocular echinococcosis).
3. E. Vogeli or E. Oligarthus – polycystic echinococcosis (aka human polycystic hydatid disease, neotropical echinococcosis).
Echinococcus Granulosus

Zoonotic tuberculosis in elephanths
Tuberculosis hardly excuse anyone irrespective of its shape, size, colour, cast, creed, breed, species or genus having a little warmth in blood. Therefore, elephants e not exception, rather very prone for this disease which have taken many times more lives than any of the war.
3. Echinococcus sp NTA LEVEL.ppt
Echinococcus granulosus is a tapeworm that can cause hydatid disease in humans and other intermediate hosts. It has a worldwide distribution, with high infection rates in parts of Africa, the Middle East, South America, and Australia. The adult tapeworm lives in the small intestine of canines and other definitive hosts. Eggs are shed in feces and ingested by intermediate hosts, where they develop into hydatid cysts typically in the liver or lungs. Transmission occurs when the intermediate host is eaten by a canine. Prevention focuses on deworming dogs and properly disposing of infected livestock remains.
Coenurus cerebralis
Cerebral coenurosis, caused by the larval stage Coenurus cerebralis of the tapeworm Taenia multiceps, is a parasitic disease affecting the brains and spinal cords of sheep, goats, and rarely cattle. It causes neurological disorders. The disease severity depends on the cyst location and size and associated neuropathological lesions. It typically presents as either an acute form from intense larval migration following massive exposure, or a chronic form where bladder cysts develop in the central nervous system. The chronic form is more common and both forms can be fatal if left untreated. Humans can also be infected through consuming contaminated food with T. multiceps eggs.
Central nervous system parasites (74)
This document provides information on parasites that infect the central nervous system (CNS). It discusses several parasites including Echinococcus granulosus, which causes hydatidosis and can form cysts in organs like the liver and lungs. Taenia solium can cause cysticercosis, where the larvae form cysts throughout the body, including in nervous tissue. Angiostrongylus cantonensis is a nematode that can infect the CNS and cause eosinophilic meningoencephalitis in humans. Toxoplasma gondii can cause toxoplasmosis and form tissue cysts in the brain. Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and T. b. gambiense
Zoonotic infection
Zoonotic infections are diseases that can spread from animals to humans. Over 60% of infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic. Transmission can occur through direct contact with infected animals, indirect contact, vectors like ticks and mosquitoes, or contaminated food. Common zoonotic diseases include anthrax, bovine tuberculosis, salmonellosis, E. coli, rabies, avian influenza, and prion diseases. Bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and prions can all cause zoonotic diseases. Proper hygiene and food handling can help prevent transmission of zoonotic infections.
Liver and biliary tree parasites (69)

(3) Imaging findings (e.g. CT, MRI) and serological tests are also discussed as important diagnostic tools for
Trichinellosis
The document discusses Trichinella spiralis, a roundworm parasite that causes trichinellosis in humans. It infects humans who consume undercooked meat, especially pork, containing larvae encysted in muscle tissue. The life cycle involves larvae infecting the intestines and developing into adult worms, which reproduce and release larvae that migrate through the bloodstream to encyst in striated muscle. Symptoms vary from mild to severe depending on infection level, and include gastrointestinal, muscular, and systemic inflammatory reactions. Diagnosis involves exposure history, clinical presentation, and laboratory tests like blood counts, muscle biopsy, and serology to detect antibodies.
Hydatid disease of bones e Imaging spectrum
Hydatid cyst, caused by echinococcus granulosa, can produce tissue cyst everywhere in body. Skeletal cystic lesion is rare specially in long bones like femur and because of its unusual presentation, its diagnosis may easily be missed, unless be kept in mind. Hydatid disease is a parasitic infestation of the humans that can practically affect any part of the body. It commonly affects liver, lung and muscles. Bone hydatid is less common occurring in only 0.5–2% of cases and humans act as an intermediate host. In the patient evaluated by us, the plain x-ray showed multiple osteolytic lesions along the lower one third of the femur and the upper end of tibia.

Tick borne parasitic infections
Tick-borne parasitic infections are caused by protozoan parasites transmitted through tick bites. The most common infections are babesiosis caused by Babesia parasites and theileriosis caused by Theileria species. These infections affect both animals and humans, causing symptoms ranging from fever and fatigue to enlarged lymph nodes. Diagnosis involves identifying the parasites in blood smears or tissue samples. Treatment consists of anti-parasitic drugs. Prevention strategies focus on controlling tick populations and avoiding tick bites through environmental and personal protective measures.
1302208 - Lit. Rev
Toxoplasma gondii is a parasite that infects around a third of the world's population. It can cause health issues in pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals. Some studies have found associations between T. gondii infection and changes in human behavior. This literature review will examine the parasite's ability to manipulate host behavior in rodents and humans, the potential mechanisms involved, and whether human manipulation could be adaptive for the parasite. It will also discuss diagnosis, treatment and prevention of toxoplasmosis.
Bacterial Zoonotic diseases of pets
Zoonoses are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. Over 60% of known infectious pathogens are zoonotic. Emerging zoonoses pose serious health risks and their incidence is increasing. Zoonoses have diverse causative agents including viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa and parasites. Transmission can occur through direct or indirect contact with infected animals or carriers. High-risk groups include those with weak immune systems. Common zoonoses include rabies, anthrax, cat scratch disease, and infections from animal bites. Proper hygiene and protective measures are important for prevention and control of zoonotic diseases.
Cestodes
This document summarizes key information about cestodes (tapeworms). It describes the morphology, lifecycles and transmission of Taenia saginata, Taenia solium, and Echinococcus granulosus. T. saginata causes intestinal taeniasis in humans through ingestion of undercooked beef containing the larval stage. T. solium can cause intestinal taeniasis or cysticercosis depending if the person is a definitive or intermediate host. E. granulosus causes cystic hydatid disease in humans through ingestion of food contaminated by dog feces containing eggs.
Echinococcosis
Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease of tapeworms of the Echinococcus type. The two main types of the disease are cystic echinococcosis and alveolar echinococcosis. Less common forms include polycystic echinococcosis and unicystic echinococcosis. The disease often starts without symptoms and this may last for years.
equinococose pulmonar
This document summarizes pulmonary echinococcosis, which is caused by the larvae of the tapeworm Echinococcus. Four species can cause infection in humans, with E. granulosus being responsible for the majority of cases. E. granulosus has a worldwide distribution and causes cystic echinococcosis. Humans can become infected through contact with infected dogs or ingesting eggs. Lung involvement occurs in 10-30% of cases and symptoms may occur due to cyst rupture or compression. Diagnosis involves imaging to detect cysts and serological testing to detect antibodies. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice when possible.
Causes Of Strongyloidiasis
This document discusses causes of parasitic disease in captive polar bears. Raw meat and fish fed to polar bears can contain parasites like Anisakiasis nematodes. Another common parasite is Baylisascaris, roundworms that infect the intestines of bears. While daily disinfecting reduces parasite infection rates, environmental contamination of eggs can still expose zoo animals and staff. Proper removal and disposal of polar bear waste is needed to control parasites.

Bats and human.pdf
This document reviews bacterial pathogens that have been isolated from bats. While many studies have investigated viruses in bats, less is known about pathogenic bacteria in bats and their impacts. Some common bacterial pathogens found in bats through traditional culture methods include Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, Clostridium, and Listeria. In particular, Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium which cause disease in humans and animals have been isolated from bats. The presence of these zoonotic bacterial pathogens in bats indicates bats could act as reservoirs and transmit diseases to humans and other animals. However, more research is still needed to understand the ecology and transmission cycles of bacterial pathogens involving bats.
Parasitic disease of CNS
1) The document discusses various parasitic diseases of the central nervous system including toxoplasmosis, amoebic infections, neurocysticercosis, nematodes, schistosomiasis, echinococcosis, trichenellosis, cerebral malaria, and human African trypanosomiasis.
2) Many of these parasites are transmitted through ingestion of contaminated food, water, or insects and can cause a range of neurological symptoms depending on the area of CNS infection including seizures, focal deficits, and mental status changes.
3) Diagnosis involves imaging, serology, and identification of the parasite in samples, while treatment consists of antiparasitic medications alongside steroids

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptx
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Editor's Notes
- Two strains - the G1 sheep strain and the G2 Tasmanian sheep strain, primarily use sheep as their intermediate host, but can also infect a variety of other species. Together with the G3 buffalo strain, the G1 and G2 strains are called Echinococcus granulosus sensu stricto. The G4 strain, which occurs only in equid intermediate hosts, does not mature in media that support the growth of the sheep strains, and does not seem to be zoonotic, is called E. equinus. G5 cattle strain has been designated Echinococcus ortleppi. It is unusual in that it regularly uses cattle, which are rarely affected by other strains, as intermediate hosts. The G6 camel strain, G7 pig strain, a poorly characterized G9 strain, and two cervid strains, G8 and G10, might comprise another species called E. canadensis. The G9 strain has been reported only from human cases in Poland, and some authors consider it to be a variant of the G7 pig strain. A lion strain has been reported from Africa. Unlike most Echinococcus species, which have canids as their primary definitive hosts, this strain mainly uses felids. It has also been called E. felidis. Some strains are still poorly characterized, and additional strains probably exist.
