[Detection of parasites and symptoms of parasitic diseases. 2: Parasites of the gastrointestinal tract, tissue and organ parasites, ecto- and skin parasites].

Intestinal parasites are Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium parvum, Entamoeba histolytica, hookworms, ascaris, tape worms and others. As to organ parasites, their life-threatening courses are pointed out: amebiasis in the intestine, liver, lung and brain, toxoplasmosis in the brain, lung and heart muscle, including the danger for the child of a pregnant woman with an acute infection, West African sleeping sickness with encephalitis, the East African form with polyserositis, South American Chagas' disease with intestinal and myocardial involvement, visceral leishmaniasis Kala Azar, the filariasis Onchocerca volvulus with threatening blindness, the dog tapeworm with cysts and Echinococcus multilocularis with carcinoma-like infiltration of the liver and other organs, cysticercosis of the brain, eye and muscle tissue; partly generalizing parasitoses in immuno-suppressed including AIDS patients, finally skin parasites as causes of disease (e.g. scabies), and as potential carriers of pathogens.

[The functional activity of the thrombocytes in chronic diseases of the large intestine].

Chronic diseases of the large intestine--catarrhal colitis, colonic stasis, unspecific ulcerative colitis, and amebiasis of the large intestine are attended by marked changes in the functional activity of blood platelets and factors of its regulation. They reflect the dynamics of the disease before and after operative and nonoperative treatment. A recurrence of the disease is linked with activation of blood platelets. Trental and contrycal are used for correction of the disorders, which improves the condition of some of the patients. The authors discuss the importance of biogenic amines, cAMP, and functional activity of the blood platelets as universal mechanisms of the development of chronic diseases of the large intestine.
