Despite regular veterinary supervision and preventative measures, many surveys have shown that captive primates often harbour diverse intestinal parasites, including species of zoonotic importance. This work summarises the historical and current parasitological research conducted on primates at Wrocław Zoological Garden, Poland, and highlights changes in diagnostic techniques, parasite diversity, and infection patterns over time. Early studies, employing classical coproscopic methods such as direct smear, decantation, and flotation, reported an overall parasite prevalence of around 40%, mainly nematodes. Later investigations expanded sampling strategies, enabling assessment of anthelmintic efficacy and resistance in specific taxa. Environmental and managerial factors - including close contact with caretakers and visitors, limited enclosure space, and inadequate pest control - were identified as key contributors to transmission. Over the past twenty years, the use of molecular diagnostic tools has considerably improved detection sensitivity, particularly for intestinal protozoa that were often missed by traditional microscopy. A notable shift in the parasite community composition has been observed: helminth prevalence has decreased, while protozoan infections have become more frequent. Whether these changes are due to methodological advancements or actual alterations in parasite ecology remains uncertain. Overall, the findings indicate that enhancements in husbandry, enclosure hygiene, and veterinary care have effectively reduced helminth transmission, yet protozoan infections continue to be common. Ongoing monitoring with molecular methods, alongside comparative studies across European zoological institutions, is essential for a comprehensive understanding of the long-term dynamics of primate parasitism in captivity.","PeriodicalId":7987,"journal":{"name":"Annals of parasitology","volume":"71 ","pages":"145-156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145846169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction of the sika deer was associated with the transfer of Spiculopteragia houdemeri which has been reported for the first time in 2003 from Germany and thereafter from sika deer and other cervid species in some countries in Europe. Surveys of livestock parasites have shown that cervid-specific gastrointestinal nematodes of native deer occur in natural infections in cattle and sheep, usually at low level, and infections were experimentally transferred. However, to date there is no such information for sika deer-specific nematodes to livestock. To investigate the establishment of sika deer-derived gastrointestinal nematodes in domestic ruminants, three calves and two lambs were challenged with mixed burdens of infective larvae (~90% ostertagids, ~10% Oesophagostomum) cultured from the faeces of free-ranging sika deer; calves received 20,000 or 30,000 larvae, lambs 12,000 or 13,000. Establishment rate of ostertagids varied from 0.4% to 3.1% in the calves and was 1.3% and 8.4% in the lambs. Spiculopteragia houdemeri, index ostertagid of Japanese sika deer, was the dominant species, recovered from all animals. In addition, Ostertagia leptospicularis and Spiculopteragia boehmi, index ostertagids of native roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and red deer (Cervus elaphus), respectively, were isolated from calf and lamb and Cooperia pectinata from one lamb. Oesophagostomum venulosum established in the lambs at ~6% but no Oesophagostomum was found in any calf. This investigation indicates that both calves and lambs are permissive to the sika deer-specific S. houdemeri and other deer-derived nematodes which reached maturity, but susceptibility to infections was apparently low.","PeriodicalId":7987,"journal":{"name":"Annals of parasitology","volume":"71 ","pages":"117-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145802893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The object of the study was 442 patients with liver echinococcosis treated in the abdominal surgery of the Khorezm Regional Multidisciplinary Medical Center for the period from 2010 to 2023. To achieve the research goal and address the objectives, the following methods were used: general clinical, biochemical, instrumental and statistical methods. When determining the tactics and volume of surgical intervention, we recommend using the proposed method for treating the residual cavity using ultrasonic cavitation and a 0.02% Decasan solution, which minimized the development of purulent-septic complications in the immediate and long-term period after surgery. The new approach significantly reduced postoperative drainage needs (63.8% vs 36.6%, P < 0.001), complications (12.5% vs 5.4%, P < 0.001), and increased uncomplicated recovery (93.1% vs 80.0%).

This species of snakes represents an important link in the natural balance, since included in various biocenotic connections.

The parasites contained round-to-oval inclusions from small, anaplasmoid-like bodies, vacuoles with a dot or two of apparent chromatin on their margin or without chromatin dots.

Therefore, effect of pulsed electric fields (PEF) as a non-invasive method was utilized on daughter cysts as an important part of hydatid cyst. Daughter cysts was extracted from sheep liver hydatid cyst, divided into three groups. The first group was exposed to PEF at intensities of 70V/cm, 150 V/cm and 1300V/cm. The second group was treated with albendazole (100 μg/ml).

Structural changes in the daughter cysts were analyzed using a stereomicroscope. The laminated layer remained undamaged in all three groups. In the first group (PEF), some degree of opacity and detachment of germinal layer was observed especially in higher pulse intensity (1300 V/cm).

In the combined PEF and albendazole (third group), although germinal layer detachment was occurred in addition to opacity but the level of detachment was not similar to those that observed in the first group.
