Infection and invasion mechanisms of Trypanosoma cruzi in the congenital transmission of chagas' disease: A proposal
(Society of Biology of Chile, 2010)
Chagas' disease is produced by the haemophlagelated protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by haematophages insects such as Triatoma infestans (vinchuca). Due to vector control, congenital transmission gains importance ...
Modelling congenital transmission of Chagas` disease
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2010)
The successful elimination of vectorial and transfusional transmission of Chagas` disease from some countries is a result of the reduction of domestic density of the primary vector Triatoma infestans, of almost 100% of ...

Use of a Novel Chagas Urine Nanoparticle Test (Chunap) for Diagnosis of Congenital Chagas Disease
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Detection of congenital T. cruzi transmission is considered one of the pillars of control programs of Chagas disease. Congenital transmission accounts for 25% of new infections with an estimated 15,000 infected infants per ...
Prevention of congenital Chagas disease by Benznidazole treatment in reproductive-age women. An observational study.
(Elsevier Science, 2017-10)
Since the decline in new cases of infection by insect/vector, congenital Chagas disease has become more relevant in the transmission of Chagas disease. Treatment with benznidazole significantly reduces the parasitemia, ...
Frequency of the Congenital Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(Wiley, 2013-08)
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi and is endemic in much of Latin America. With increased globalisation and immigration, it is a risk in any country, partly through congenital transmission. ...

Congenital Chagas disease: An update
(Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, 2015-05)
Congenital infection with Trypanosoma cruzi is a global problem, occurring on average in 5% of children born from chronically infected mothers in endemic areas, with variations depending on the region. This presentation ...
Impact of chagas disease in human evolution:the challenges continue
(2013)
Chagas disease affects 8 to 10 million people worldwide and, although most of them live in Latin America, there has been an increase in cases occurring in countries of Europe and North America although most of them live ...
Comparative Study and Analytical Verification of PCR Methods for the Diagnosis of Congenital Chagas Disease
(American Society of Investigative Pathology, 2017-09)
Congenital infection is currently the first cause of new cases of Chagas disease in Argentina and nonendemic areas worldwide. Its diagnosis is of utmost importance to guarantee curative treatment. To improve such diagnosis, ...
