Come si trasmette la toxoplasmosi

di
gatto

La toxoplasmosi è una malattia causata da un protozoo parassita, il Toxoplasma gondii. E’ un parassita molto comune nel mondo, ed in alcuni paesi la toxoplasmosi raggiunge percentuali di contagio elevatissime, soprattutto nei climi caldi ed umidi. In molti casi il sistema immunitario è in grado di neutralizzare la presenza del parassita, che quindi resta nel corpo ma non procura danni. Ma ci sono alcune categorie a rischio, in particolare le donne in gravidanza e le persone immunodepresse.

Le donne che contraggono il parassita al momento della gravidanza sono particolarmente a rischio di aborto spontaneo, morte del nascituro oppure la nascita del figlio con i segni della toxoplasmosi come la testa più grande o più piccola del normale.

Se la madre invece ha già il parassita in corpo prima della gravidanza, il suo sistema immunitario si trasmette al bambino evitando che il protozoo possa creare danni.

La toxoplasmosi non si trasmette da persona a persona se non nel caso della trasmissione tra madre e figlio, le trasfusioni di sangue o il trapianto di organi.

Le principali vie di trasmissione del parassita sono invece:

Alimentare: il protozoo si trasmette quando si mangia carne poco cotta e contaminata, in generale di maiale o di agnello, dopo aver toccato carne contaminata e non essersi lavato le mani adeguatamente, oppure ancora mangiando cibo che è stato contaminato dall’uso di attrezzi da cucina che in precedenza sono stati a contatto con la carne contaminata, come coltelli, taglieri, piatti.

Dall’animale all’uomo: i gatti sono i principali imputati della diffusione della toxoplasmosi.

Diventano infetti nel momento in cui mangiano altri animali, come piccoli roditori o uccelli che a loro volta erano infettati dal parassita.

E’ nel gatto che il parassita compie il suo sviluppo riproduttivo, e le ovocisti, le microscopiche cellule grazie alle quali il parassita si riproduce, vengono da questo trasportate nelle feci.

Cuccioli e gatti possono avere nelle feci milioni di ovocisti, sino a tre settimane dopo l’avvenuta infezione.
Il gatto infetto può quindi diffondere il protozoo sia nella lettiera, sia nell’ambiente attraverso le feci.

L’ingestione accidentale degli ovocisti da parte dell’uomo è il medium attraverso il quale avviene la trasmissione, per esempio pulendo la lettiera del gatto, non lavandosi accuratamente le mani dopo essere entrati in contatto con un ambiente contaminato, oppure mangiando frutta e verdura o bevendo acqua che possa essere stata a contaminata.

Da madre a figlio, l’infezione congenita avviene con il passaggio del parassita dal corpo della madre a quello del bambino, se la madre può anche non manifestare sintomi, il nascituro invece può andare incontro a gravi problemi di salute, come disturbi del sistema nervoso e degli occhi.

Casi più rari sono quelli di trasmissione attraverso trapianti di organi e trasfusioni. Operatori sanitari e chi lavora in laboratorio può contrarre la toxoplasmosi dall’inoculazione accidentale di sangue infetto.

  7. Really enjoyed reading this post.
    The article does a good job explaining
    the basics of online sports streaming
    in a
    straightforward format.

    Many people often wonder
    where to find reliable streaming platforms
    and
    the information here is quite practical.
    Thanks for putting this together.

  16. Heya just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few
    of the pictures aren’t loading properly. I’m not sure why but
    I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two
    different internet browsers and both show the same outcome.

  43. A super website works as the kind of place you arrive at and instantly feel it’s made
    to be easy: everything responds fast, the design is clean, and the key
    action shows up in a couple clicks. The structure makes sense, the text
    is clear, and whether on mobile or desktop — from a
    phone to a big screen — the experience stays consistent.

    What makes it truly super is not only the design — it’s how much friction it removes.
    Search works properly, forms are easy to complete, and important actions aren’t buried.
    You walk away with a straightforward feeling: this site respects your time, works the way you
    expect, and makes you want to come back.

  73. Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i
    was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback?
    If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
    I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any assistance is very much appreciated.

  89. Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Firefox.
    I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with
    browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know.
    The style and design look great though! Hope you get the problem resolved soon.
    Kudos

  97. Greetings! I know this is somewhat off topic
    but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had problems
    with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.

    I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  155. Отличный веб-сайт — это пространство в сети, на которое попадаешь и тут же чувствуешь,
    что о пользователе позаботились:
    сайт не тормозит, страницы грузятся моментально, а нужная информация находится за секунды.
    Дизайн чистый и актуальный,
    без лишних деталей, но с продуманными акцентами, которые ведут по
    странице. Навигация понятная,
    тексты ясные, а на любом устройстве — от
    смартфона до десктопа
    — всё выглядит одинаково удобно и цельно.

    Но главное в таком сайте — не внешний вид, а чувство удобства: он снимает лишние шаги
    и делает задачу проще, чем ожидалось.
    Формы заполняются без раздражающих ошибок, поиск выдаёт релевантные результаты, а профиль пользователя
    (если есть) не усложняет, а упрощает.
    В итоге этот ресурс вызывает понятное чувство: к нему тянет вернуться, потому
    что здесь всё сделано правильно.

  157. I do trust all the concepts you have presented for your post.
    They’re very convincing and will certainly work. Still, the posts are very brief for newbies.

    Could you please extend them a little from next time? Thank you for the post.

  169. I’m not sure why but this web site is loading extremely slow
    for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end?

    I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still
    exists.

  173. Hi, Neat post. There’s an issue along with your website in internet explorer,
    might test this? IE nonetheless is the marketplace leader and a good element of people will
    pass over your magnificent writing due to this problem.

  176. Great write-up, I am a big believer in placing comments on sites to inform the blog writers know that they’ve added something advantageous to the world wide web!

  179. Hi, possibly i’m being a little off topic here, but I was browsing your site and it looks stimulating. I’m writing a blog and trying to make it look neat, but everytime I touch it I mess something up. Did you design the blog yourself?

  188. A super webpage feels like the kind of place you arrive at and right away feel it’s designed with users in mind:
    pages load fast, the interface is tidy, and the key action is
    easy to find. The menu makes sense, the labels is simple,
    and across devices — from small screens to large monitors —
    the experience stays consistent.

    What makes it truly super isn’t just how it looks —
    it’s how easily it helps you get things done.
    Search works properly, forms don’t fight you, and important actions aren’t buried.
    You walk away with a simple impression: it’s built to be efficient,
    does what it should, and invites you back.
