COVID-19: Implications for People with Chagas Disease

As the global COVID-19 pandemic advances, it increasingly impacts the vulnerable populations who already bear a heavy burden of neglected tropical diseases. Chagas disease (CD), a neglected parasitic infection, is of particular concern because of its potential to cause cardiac, gastrointestinal, and other complications which could increase susceptibility to COVID-19. The over one million people worldwide with c...

A Real Time PCR strategy for the detection and quantification of Candida albica...

Candidemia is a significant cause of bloodstream infections (BSI) in nosocomial settings. The identification of species can potentially improve the quality of care and decrease human mortality. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) was evaluated for Candida albicans detection using culture suspensions containing C. albicans, spiked human blood, the cloned qPCR target fragment (ITS2 region) and the results of these assays wer...

Awareness of Chagas disease and socioeconomic characteristics of Bolivian immig...

In this study which is part of a research project on Chagas disease (CD) among Bolivian immigrants in Sao Paulo, we describe socioeconomic characteristics, knowledge of CD and implications for acess to health care. We applied a structured questionnaire to a sample of 472 Bolivian adults (> 18 years) living in Sao Paulo and enrolled at the Barra Funda School Health Center. Participants’ median age was 28.5 ye...

Role of T. cruzi exposure in the pattern of T cell cytokines among chronically ...

OBJECTIVES: The impact of Chagas disease (CD) in HIV-infected patients is relevant throughout the world. In fact, the characterization of the adaptive immune response in the context of co-infection is important for predicting the need for interventions in areas in which HIV and Chagas disease co-exist. METHODS: We described and compared the frequency of cytokine-producing T cells stimulated with soluble antigen...
