Fecha de publicación: | 2017 | Publicación seriada: | PLoS ONE | Resumen: | Strongyloides stercoralis is a parasite that causes strongyloidiasis, a neglected tropical disease. S. stercoralis is a soil-transmitted helminth that is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Strongyloidiasis can occur without any symptoms or as a chronic infection characterized by mild, unspecific symptoms such as pruritus, abdominal pain or discomfort; respiratory impairment also may manifest as a potentially fatal hyperinfection or disseminated infection. Most studies on strongyloidiasis in Spain have been related to chronic forms in immigrants or travellers from endemic zones and have mainly analysed out-patient populations. Studies of the impact of strongyloidiasis cases admitted to hospitals in Spain are lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the impact of strongyloidiasis in hospital care in Spain. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/41625 | ISSN: | 1932-6203 | DOI: | 10.1371/journal.pone.0189449 | Fuente: | PLoS ONE [ISSN 1932-6203], v.12 (12), (e0189449) | URL: | https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85039838376 |
