Dynamics of host immune response development during Schistosoma mansoni infection

Alice H. Costain, Alexander Phythian‐Adams, Stefano A. P. Colombo, Angela K. Marley et autres

Schistosomiasis is a disease of global significance, with severity and pathology directly related to how the host responds to infection. The immunological narrative of schistosomiasis has been constructed through decades of study, with researchers often focussing on isolated time points, cell types …

Plasmodium falciparum malaria during pregnancy: the impact of parasitaemia and anaemia on birthweight

Dawood Ackom Abbas, Abdul‐Hakim Mutala, Samuel Kekeli Agordzo, Christian Kwasi Owusu et autres

Abstract Malaria in pregnancy remains a major problem of public health concern in Sub-Saharan Africa due to its endemicity and the diverse consequences on both the mother and the baby. Much attention, therefore, is needed to fully understand the epidemiology of the …

Impact of malaria on haematological parameters of urban, peri-urban and rural residents in the Ashanti region of Ghana: a cross-sectional study

Abdul‐Hakim Mutala, Kingsley Badu, Christian Kwasi Owusu, Samuel Kekeli Agordzo et autres

Background: We aimed at investigating the impact of malaria on the haematological parameters of residents from different demographic settlements in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. Malaria parasites trigger changes in certain haematological parameters, which may result in a number of clinical manifestations. …

Seroprevalence, risk factors and impact of Toxoplasma gondii infection on haematological parameters in the Ashanti region of Ghana: a cross-sectional study

Samuel Kekeli Agordzo, Kingsley Badu, Matthew Glover Addo, Christian Kwasi Owusu et autres

Background: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular, apicomplexan parasite that causes toxoplasmosis. Although the global prevalence of toxoplasmosis has been estimated to be approximately 30%, there is limited seroprevalence data in Ghana, with a dearth of information on the impact of T. …

Transcriptome of the parasitic flatworm Schistosoma mansoni during intra-mammalian development

Arporn Wangwiwatsin, Anna Victoria Protasio, Shona Wilson, Christian Kwasi Owusu et autres

Schistosomes are parasitic blood flukes that survive for many years within the mammalian host vasculature. How the parasites establish a chronic infection in the hostile bloodstream environment, whilst evading the host immune response is poorly understood. The parasite develops morphologically and grows …

Impact of malaria on haematological parameters of urban, peri-urban and rural patients in the Ashanti region of Ghana: a cross-sectional study

Abdul‐Hakim Mutala, Kingsley Badu, Christian Kwasi Owusu, Samuel Kekeli Agordzo et autres

Background: This study aimed at investigating haematological changes in malaria patients across different demographic settlements. Malaria parasites trigger changes in certain haematological parameters, which may result in a number of clinical manifestations.

Evolutionary associations between host traits and parasite load: insights from Lake Tanganyika cichlids

Alexander Hayward, Masahito Tsuboi, Christian Kwasi Owusu, Alexander Kotrschal et autres

Parasite diversity and abundance (parasite load) vary greatly among host species. However, the influence of host traits on variation in parasitism remains poorly understood. Comparative studies of parasite load have largely examined measures of parasite species richness and are predominantly based on …
