West, D. Understanding transmission and control of Cystic Echinococcosis and other taeniid infections in the Falkland Islands. (Thesis). University of Salford

Cystic echinococcosis, caused by the larval form of the cestode parasite Echinococcus granulosus, has been identified as an important public health risk in the Falkland Islands since the early 1940s. This prompted the instigation of an intensive cont... Read More about Understanding transmission and control of Cystic Echinococcosis and other taeniid infections in the Falkland Islands.

Long-term trends in helminth infections of wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus) from the vicinity of Malham Tarn in North Yorkshire, England (2020)
Journal Article
Behnke, J., Rogan, M., Craig, P., Jackson, J., & Hide, G. (2021). Long-term trends in helminth infections of wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus) from the vicinity of Malham Tarn in North Yorkshire, England. Parasitology, 184(4), 451-463. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0031182020002243

Helminth infections in wood mice (n=483), trapped over a period of 26 years in the woods surrounding Malham Tarn in N. Yorkshire, were analysed. Although ten species of helminths were identified, the overall mean species richness was 1.01 species/m...

International consensus on terminology to be used in the field of echinococcoses (2020)
Journal Article
Vuitton, D., McManus, D., Rogan, M., Romig, T., Gottstein, B., Naidich, A., …Menezes da Silva, A. (2020). International consensus on terminology to be used in the field of echinococcoses. Parasite, 27, 41. https://doi.org/10.1051/parasite/2020024

Echinococcoses require the involvement of specialists from nearly all disciplines; standardization of the terminology used in the field is thus crucial. To harmonize echinococcosis terminology on sound scientific and linguistic grounds, the World Ass... Read More about International consensus on terminology to be used in the field of echinococcoses.

Long-term retrospective assessment of a transmission hotspot for human alveolar echinococcosis in mid-west China (2019)
Journal Article
Giraudoux,, P., YuMin, Z., Afonso, E., HongBin, Y., Knapp, J., Rogan, M., …Craig, P. (2019). Long-term retrospective assessment of a transmission hotspot for human alveolar echinococcosis in mid-west China. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 13(8), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0007701

Background Human alveolar echinococcosis caused by infection with Echinococcus multilocularis is one of the most potentially pathogenic helminthic zoonoses. Transmission occurs involving wildlife cycles typically between fox and small mammal interm...

Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid enhances epithelial - mesenchymal transition (2018)
Journal Article
Mohammed, A., Allen, J., & Rogan, M. (2018). Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid enhances epithelial - mesenchymal transition. Parasite Immunology, 40(6), e12533. https://doi.org/10.1111/pim.12533

Aims Cystic Echinococcosis is characterised by fluid filled hydatid cysts in the liver and lungs. The cysts are surrounded by a host fibrous layer (the pericyst) which acts to isolate the parasite from surrounding tissues. Previous studies in liver...

Does hydatid cyst fluid from Echinococcus granulosus cysts have any effect on cells involved in fibrosis in cystic echinococcosis? (2016)
Journal Article
Mohammed, A., Allen, J., & Rogan, M. (2016). Does hydatid cyst fluid from Echinococcus granulosus cysts have any effect on cells involved in fibrosis in cystic echinococcosis?. Journal of Parasitology and Bacteriology, 7(5), https://doi.org/10.4172/2155-9597.C1.023

Cystic echinococcosis is characterized by the presence of slow growing hydatid cysts, usually in the liver or lungs. Survival of the parasite is based on an interaction of the host immune system and a range of parasite immune-evasive strategies. Fibr...
