The carefully presented collection covers both common and neglected helminth infections. Readers will discover an up-date overview to helminth epidemiology (including molecular typing), specific biological, immunological and immunopathological aspects, diagnosis and latest perspectives of control. New contributions give particular attention to economic consequences of helminthiases, deworming programs and future public health approaches, as well as most recent findings in host immune responses. Helminths are long-lived multicellular organisms that have co-evolved with humans over many thousands of years. They are responsible for infections which affect around one fourth of the human population, at global level. Despite the huge efforts in research during the last years, effective control of helminth infections is still far from optimal standardsand the resulting diseases remain neglected. The highly readable link of parasitological background and clinical application makes this book a valuable read not only for parasitologists but also physicians and medical students, health professionals as well as experts in public health issues. Moreover, all readers concerned with combating neglected parasitoses towards the Sustainable Development Goal SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) will understand the significance of this renewed volume. . 606 $aParasitology 606 $aMedical microbiology 606 $aPublic health 606 $aMedicine, Preventive 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aParasitology 606 $aMedical Microbiology 606 $aPublic Health 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention 615 0$aParasitology. 615 0$aMedical microbiology. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aMedicine, Preventive. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 14$aParasitology. 615 24$aMedical Microbiology. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 676 $a616.962 676 $a614.554 702 $aBruschi$b Fabrizio$f1954- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910586598903321 996 $aHelminth Infections and Their Impact on Global Public Health$92904618 997 $aUNINA
