Human parasites are parasites whose infection is the subject of a person. The general definition of the word "parasite" applies not only to multicellular and protozoa, living at the expense of their owner and to the detriment of the latter, but also viruses, bacteria and fungi of similar qualities. According to the historical tradition and from the point of view of medical parasitology, it is customary to be called any beings leading to a parasitic lifestyle, except for viruses and bacteria of similar qualities.
Parasites include many helminths, fungi, viruses, protozoa, worms, crustaceans, cobwebs, shaped, insects. Parasite owners can be bacteria, the most simple, plants, animals and humans. The parasites undergo a complex cycle of development: sometimes they need a change of 2-3 owners whose body is intermediate (helminths pass the stages of the larvae) or the end (helminths become invasive).
The study of parasites in ancient people is based on stool study and other fossilized materials. The most parasites found in humans are Paragonimus Westermani eggs from the north Chile, found in the hardened stools and dates from about 5900 BC. , In Peru - nematode eggs from 2330 BC and Egyptian mummies dating from 2000, 1250 and 1000 years. Bc. E. They contained an egg for a police, along with a well -preserved female worm.
In Berlin, for the period 1866-1875. 16% of all open carcasses contain worms of worms. Bull Taperly (Taeniarhynchus Saginatus) was especially widespread where raw meat was eaten. In St. Petersburg, according to Kessler, 3, 66 % of the persons investigated by him suffer from this parasite (1888). Pork teckia (Taenia solium) is found everywhere in areas where they eat raw or semi -even pork. In St. Petersburg, about 3 % of the population suffered from this parasite in the late 19th century. When they began to avoid the use of raw meat, the rate of disease decreases exclusively, for example in Denmark from 53 % to 20 % for 10-12 years. Dypilidium caninum lives in the gut of dogs and cats and rarely in the gut of children. The cases of infection of children in the late 19th century were known from England, Germany, Denmark: The infection occurs exclusively when fleas were swallowed.
Parasites and their discard(Products of their lives) are the most powerful poisons for the human body. They cause severe acidification and thickening of the blood and the entire internal environment. They cause the most serious health disorders. From bronchitis to oncology. Destroy a person's psyche, deprives peace and sleep. In the body of the child, parasites prevent the normal development of the child's nervous system and with a long current disease contribute to mental and physical backwardness. Through distribution: Regarding biological and epidemiological characteristics: Depending on the location of the parasite in the body: In place of the owner's stay: Parasitism can be infected not only through dirty hands. Animal hair is the carrier of worms (ascarid and toxocar), lamblia. Pinc worm eggs that have fallen from the viability of the wave to 6 months and through dust, toys, carpets, linen and mats and hands fall into the food tract. Dog through wet breathing spreads eggs at a distance of 5 meters (cat - up to 3 meters). Dog fleas also tolerate worm eggs. Askarid's eggs enter the body through poorly washed vegetables, fruits, berries, green, dirty hands and are also spread in flies. And improperly boiled barbecue or home -made lard is the path of trichinosis infection; Poorly salted fish, caviar - optistorchiasis and wide band. So, there are several ways to enter the body: The infection does not need to manifest itself in any way. Sometimes one feels healthy, despite the invasion, thanks to the strong immunity. Some individual time will be healthy. Then, respectively, the disappearance of immunity (collapse can occur at any time stress, surgery, illness) - the quiet signals will still begin to serve. It is urine with odor, acne on the skin, stubborn cough with clean lungs, unstable stools with a pungent odor or constipation, gas formation, an unpleasant odor from the mouth. The most specific manifestation of the presence of helminths in the body is the bruxism (a night rattle of the teeth). Night salivation, usual nausea, the perversion of the appetite of night hunger, tireless hunger, addiction to sweet and acidic foods and air coating. Children have a decrease in appetite or selective appetite. Sometimes people with increased appetite are found, but at the same time weaken. Constipation, bile stagnation Some worms, due to their shape and large size, can mechanically close the lumen of the intestine, the ducts of the biliary tract, which leads to a deterioration of the peristalsis, the formation of constipation, complete or partial intestinal obstruction. The invasion of Hlybon can cause obstruction of the common bile duct, leading to difficulty in the leakage of bile, mechanical jaundice. Diarrhea A number of parasites, especially protozoal, produce prostaglandin -like substances that lead to sodium and chlorides to loss, which in turn provokes diarrhea - frequent watery movements of the intestine. Stomach and intestinal discomfort syndrome Parasites living in the upper intestine cause inflammation and lead to bowel disorders, bloating. This leads to a decrease in the absorption of nutrients. As a result, the fats that need to be absorbed in the small intestine fall into the colon, provoking cramps, alternating constipation and diarrhea. Pain in joints and muscles Parasites can move around the human body to establish themselves in the most convenient places, such as in joint fluid and in the muscles. Tissue inflammation is the result of their injury with parasites or the body's immune response to their presence. At the same time, one experiences muscle and joint pain. Allergy Parasites can disrupt the normal permeability of the intestinal mucosa, which increases the risk of penetration of large non -covered particles of food into them. This activates the body's immune response - the level of eosinophils - the protective blood cells of our body that contribute to the development of allergic reactions - increases. Parasites cause increased production from the body of immunoglobulin is, which increases allergic reactions. Troubled skin Intestinal parasites can cause allergic skin reactions - atopic dermatitis, urticaria, eczema. Most often, inflammatory changes on the skin can be the result of the presence of microorganisms of protozoa (lamblia, mushrooms) and ophorhis. Change of body weight Weight fluctuations (both more than normal and less) can be the result of a parasitic disease. Weight loss is due to the fact that digestion is impaired in the body as there is an "internal consumer". Obesity is also a consequence of the "robbery" of the human body with a helminth invasion. The feeling of hunger occurs with a sharp drop in blood sugar due to the activity of helminths, their toxic effects on the body. Anemia Many intestinal helminths are attached to the intestinal wall, damaging it, causing a sufficiently greater blood loss, leading to anemia. Nervousness, sleep disorder The toxic substances of the vital activity of parasites irritate the central nervous system, causing increased anxiety and nervousness. Frequent awakening in the middle of the night, especially between 2 and 3 hours, is also the result of the body's attempts to get rid of toxic substances through the liver. "Chronic fatigue syndrome" "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome" includes weakness, causal decrease and fever, emotional instability, loss of concentration and poor memory. These symptoms can be the result of anemia, intoxication, lack of nutrients in the body caused by parasites. Once you find your family members for several symptoms, subjected to the diagnosis of parasitism and carry out a preventative course of treatment for disinfection. Recently, the presence of parasites is only determined by the method of duodenal sound tests and sends tests using microscopic studies aimed at detecting selected helminths or their fragments, eggs and larvae. Eggs and larvae of helminths parasitic in the liver, biliary trails, pancreas and duodenum are found in the content of bile and duodenum; Of the intestinal forms of helminth they examined stool samples; In the case of suspicion of Paragonimoz, the heart is also examined and urine - urine on genitorological histomosis. But the reliability of these studies depends on the professionalism of employees - whether the laboratory assistant will notice in the microscopic examination of parasites. In addition, if the parasite does not delay the eggs at the moment when the inspection is carried out, its presence will be unnoticed even with a high qualification of the laboratory assistant. Often with only 8-10 attempts you can get a positive result. Today, there are immunological studies that allow you to determine in the blood of an infected person the presence of antigens and antibodies of parasites of different species. The reliability of such analyzes depends on the life cycle of parasites and their amount in the body. The most vulnerable of the effects of parasites are children. They are infected with different types of parasites through dirty hands, sand, soil and water. Sometimes the infection of the child can occur in intrauterine, as the simplest larvae of bacteria, viruses, candida and helminths can penetrate the fetus through the placenta with blood flow, as well as during birth through the birth canal. Do not risk the health of your children, hold preventive courses for decontamination.
