In order to gain better knowledge about pathomechanisms of amebosis, histological and histochemical studies were performed on large and small intestine of guinea pigs infected by PS-2 Entamoeba histolytica strain. Results of these studies showed that the presence of E. histolytica in large intestine caused also pathomorphological changes of small intestine: partial atrophy of villi, epithelium destruction, epithelial metaplasia, lacteral dilation, infiltration of mucous membrane by lymphocytes, plasmocytes and macrophages. Influence of this parasite on lowering of investigated enzyme reactions and reduction of mucus secretion in large intestine as well as in small intestine of infected animals were also shown. These result suggest influence of E. histolytica cytotoxins (studied earlier by others authors) on the enzymes activity in host tissues and next on the weakness of intracellular metabolism and on cells destruction. For induction of these changes the adhesion host cell-amoeba is not necessary.
Histological studies of the brain, lungs, liver, kidneys, heart, and the spleen were carried out in mice previously infected with 6 pathogenic strains of free-living amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba. The potential virulence of the strains studied was determined on the basis of re-isolation of the amoebae from the organs of the inoculated animals and by the extent of the histopathological changes inflicted. The most virulent was strain AD16, affecting all organs of the inoculated mice, while the least virulent was strain AD148 re-isolated from the brain of a single mouse. The extent of the changes in the brain depended upon the amoebae strain, while in the remaining organs it also depended upon the duration of the infection.

Przypadek importowanej ludzkiej babesiozy w Polsce

63%
The first cae of human babesiosis in Poland imported from Brazil were ascertained in our Department. Diagnosis was based on hamster inoculation by intraperitonealy injection of patient's blood. In Giemsa stained erythrocytes characteristic forms of Babesia microti were detected.
The studies included 10 public indoor swimming pools and 3 public open-air swimming pools located in the city of Szczecin. In 2003, water samples were collected for detection of virulent amphizoic amoebae strains. In all pools, 16 strains of thermophilic Acanthamoeba spp. were isolated, 5 of which proved virulent for mice. No pathogenic strains were detected in the water sampled in the indoor swimming pools, and the virulent strains, AD 16, AD 148, AD 166, AM 17, and AM 148, were found only in the open-air swimming pools. The post-mortem studies of mice that had been inoculated with these strains revealed the amoebae invasions in brain, lungs, liver, kidneys, and spleen.
Symptomic and asymptomic infections of Demodex spp. in eye lashes of patients of different age groups. Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis were looked for on eyelashes sampled from 481 people, aged 3 through 96. The persons studied were divided into 9 age groups. Magnitude of the infection symptoms was assessed based on macroscopic changes of eye-lid edges and on interviews with patients. An increase of the prevalence of infection and intensification of the symptoms were observed to coincide with the age increase of the persons studied. No significant differences were demonstrated between the infection frequencies of women and men. Symptoms of ocular demodecosis were more frequent only in women of group III (aged 21-30) and group V (41-50) (p<0.05).
