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.

    the same outdated rehashed material. Fantastic read!

    RSS feeds to my Google account.

  47. Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog
    platform are you using for this site? I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers
    and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.

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

  49. I really like what you guys are usually up too.

  58. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could
    add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
    I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
    Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

    blog. An excellent read. I will certainly be back.

  101. I’ve been reading Paybis for a while now, especially after having
    a rough financial period, and I’m still not entirely sure whether it deserves all the attention it gets.
    Still, it’s clearly a noticeable name in the crypto industry, particularly for people
    in Germany who are trying to rebuild their finances. From what I understand, Paybis
    presents itself as a well-established cryptocurrency service that
    supports standard payment methods, something many platforms either limit or complicate.

    What initially caught my eye is how Paybis seems to link traditional
    German banking methods with the crypto world.
    Many exchanges focus only on crypto-to-crypto trades, while Paybis
    allows users to buy crypto using credit cards. I’m not saying the
    process is perfect, but it does seem aimed at beginners rather
    than just advanced traders.

    Another aspect worth noting is the selection of supported assets.
    Paybis doesn’t restrict itself to Bitcoin and Ethereum only.

    Instead, it offers a broader token selection, which
    might attract users who are trying new projects.
    Still, things like liquidity are worth checking before making decisions.

    Security and compliance also come up often around Paybis.
    The platform highlights KYC checks, which can feel reassuring
    for users in Germany, though others might see it as inconvenient.
    I’m still undecided, but it does suggest Paybis
    tries to operate as a long-term marketplace.

    When it comes to fees, reviews seem varied. Some say Paybis is straightforward
    about costs, while others note that pricing can vary by payment
    method. This isn’t unusual in the crypto industry,
    but it means users should research properly before moving money.

    Overall, I wouldn’t call Paybis perfect, but it does seem like a platform worth exploring, especially
    for someone in Germany trying to build a new starting point.
    I’m still forming my opinion, but it seems interesting enough to justify further research.

  105. Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the images on this
    blog loading? I’m trying to find out if its a problem on my end or
    if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

  117. Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform
    you’re using? I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard
    time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most
    blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to
    ask!

  139. Please let me know if you’re looking for a article writer for
    your blog. You have some really good articles and I think I would
    be a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d absolutely
    love to write some articles for your blog in exchange for a
    link back to mine. Please send me an e-mail if interested.
    Thank you!

  147. Hey there! Quick question that’s completely off topic.
    Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks
    weird when viewing from my iphone. I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be
    able to fix this problem. If you have any suggestions,
    please share. Thank you!

  154. I’m not sure where you’re getting your information, but good topic.

    I needs to spend some time learning more or understanding more.
    Thanks for fantastic information I was looking
    for this information for my mission.

  160. It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d without a doubt
    donate to this superb blog! I suppose for now i’ll settle for book-marking and adding your
    RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to new
    updates and will share this site with my Facebook group.

  162. I’ve been researching Paybis for a while now, especially after going
    through financial trouble, and I’m still not completely certain whether it deserves
    all the attention it gets. Still, it’s certainly a noticeable name
    in the crypto industry, particularly for people in Germany who are trying to get back on track.
    From what I understand, Paybis presents itself as a large-scale cryptocurrency service that supports regular bank transactions, something many platforms either limit or complicate.

    What initially caught my eye is how Paybis seems to link traditional German banking methods with the crypto world.

    Many exchanges focus only on crypto-to-crypto trades, while Paybis allows users to sell crypto
    using debit cards. I’m not saying the process is perfect,
    but it does seem aimed at beginners rather than just advanced traders.

    Another aspect worth noting is the selection of supported
    assets. Paybis doesn’t restrict itself to Bitcoin and
    Ethereum only. Instead, it offers a broader token selection, which might attract users who are exploring options.
    Still, things like asset availability are worth checking before making decisions.

    Security and compliance also come up often around Paybis.
    The platform highlights regulatory compliance, which can feel professional for users
    in Germany, though others might see it as inconvenient.

    I’m still undecided, but it does suggest Paybis
    tries to operate as a regulated marketplace.

    When it comes to fees, reviews seem mixed. Some say Paybis is transparent about costs, while others note that pricing can depend
    on currency. This isn’t unusual in the crypto industry, but it means users should
    research properly before moving money.

    Overall, I wouldn’t call Paybis the ultimate choice, but it does seem like a platform
    worth exploring, especially for someone in Germany
    trying to recover financially. I’m still forming my opinion, but
    it seems relevant enough to justify further research.

  166. Amazing! This blog looks just like my old one! It’s on a entirely different topic but it
    has pretty much the same layout and design. Great choice of colors!
