The diseases caused by trematodes have been neglected for years, especially as compared with other parasitic diseases. However, the geographical limits and the populations at risk are currently expanding and changing in relation to factors such as growing international markets, improved transportation systems, and demographic changes. This has led to a growing international interest to the trematode infections, although factors such as the difficulties entailed in the diagnosis, the complexity of human and agricultural practices, the lack of assessments of the economic costs, or the limited number of effective drugs are preventing the development of control measures of these diseases in humans and livestock. In-depth studies are needed to clarify the current epidemiology of these helminth infections and to identify new and specific targets for both effective diagnosis and treatments. The main goal of the second edition of this book is to present the major trematodes and their corresponding diseases in the framework of modern parasitology, considering matters such as the application of novel techniques and analysis of data in the context of host-parasite interactions and to show applications of new techniques and concepts for the studies on digenetic trematodes. This is an ideal book for parasitologists, microbiologists, zoologists, immunologists, professional of public health workers, clinicians and graduate and post-graduate students. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Part I: General Aspects of the Trematodes -- Form and Function in the Digenea -- The Systematics of the Trematoda -- Part II: Trematodes of Interest in Human Health -- Schistosomiasis -- Fascioliasis -- Paragonimiasis -- Liver Flukes -- Intestinal Trematode Infections -- Part III: Trematodes of Interest in Veterinary and Wildlife Disease -- Schistosomatoidae and Diplostomoidea -- Paramphistomidae -- Dicrocoeliidae -- Selected Wildlife Trematodes -- Part IV: Clinical Aspects of Trematode Infections -- Epidemiology of Trematode Infections -- Genomics and Proteomics of Trematodes (NEW CHAPTER) -- Diagnosis of Human Trematode Infections. 650 0 $a Medical parasitology. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85082980 650 0 $a Parasitic diseases. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85097912 650 0 $a Trematoda. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85137270 650 12 $a Trematode Infections. $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014201 $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014201 650 22 $a Trematoda $x parasitology. $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014200Q000469 $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014200Q000469 650 7 $a Medical parasitology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014401 650 7 $a Parasitic diseases. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01053151 650 7 $a Trematoda. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156173 700 1 $a Toledo, Rafael, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb2009003014 700 1 $a Fried, Bernard, $d 1933- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n86088476 830 0 $a Advances in experimental medicine and biology ; $v v.1154. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n42001229 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210021646.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=31786A241B1B11EAA846F92397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
