Come si trasmette la toxoplasmosi

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. I blog often and I truly appreciate your content. Your article has really peaked my
    interest. I am going to bookmark your site and keep checking for new information about once per week.
    I opted in for your Feed too.

  9. magnificent issues altogether, you simply won a new reader.
    What might you recommend about your publish that you made some days in the past?

    Any sure?

  65. Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite reason seemed to be on the web the
    easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people
    consider worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having
    side effect , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more.
    Thanks

  74. I’ve got to be honest, but the first time I got involved with
    a professional club’s digital operations, everything I thought I
    knew about modern sports completely collapsed.

    I always believed teams were about winning games, but when I saw how the entire industry had
    turned into this massive digital economy, I honestly felt overwhelmed.

    What hit me hardest was realizing that cybercriminals weren’t going after “IT servers” anymore.
    They were attacking everything — betting infrastructures.

    One breach, and millions could be lost instantly.

    And the scariest part?
    I saw it with my own eyes.

    One day, during a routine check, someone mentioned how a
    manipulated data feed caused chaos in betting markets.
    That was the moment I understood how thin the line really is between order and
    total digital disaster.

    But the real shock came when I looked deeper into betting
    platforms.
    I swear, I always thought they were just websites.
    But no.
    They are ultra-sensitive digital ecosystems. One tiny manipulation can shift odds globally or make entire
    markets react like they’re on fire.

    When I learned how seriously regulated environments handle security
    — especially the kind you see described in official breakdowns — it
    opened my eyes. If anyone wants to understand how this level of protection actually works, they can always look it up directly from the source.
    The full explanations are there, and they’re honestly worth reading.

    Inside the clubs, it was even more surreal. I saw databases full of injury
    histories — things that could ruin a season if leaked.

    And yet the biggest weakness wasn’t the firewalls.

    It was the people.
    One emotional click, one careless moment, and the whole
    system can fall apart. I watched entire staff units go through security training
    because phishing had become a daily threat.

    Compliance teams were everywhere too — checking access,
    reviewing logs, forcing documentation. I used to think compliance
    was boring, but now I understand that without it, the entire
    digital side of sports would melt into chaos.

    And the future… that’s another story.
    AI detection, automated response systems, cloud architectures — it
    felt like watching the digital version of an arms race.

    But the truth I walked away with was simple:

    Cybersecurity isn’t some extra cost. It’s the only thing holding this whole world together.

    And honestly, after everything I saw, I can say the system I was reviewing really did
    an exceptional job. They handled their mission far better than I expected.

    If anyone wants to dig deeper or understand how these structures really work, I’d definitely suggest getting more information directly
    from the source. It’s all publicly explained — and believe me, once you read it,
    you’ll never look at sports or betting the same way again.

  78. Hi, I do believe this is a great web site.
    I stumbledupon it 😉 I am going to come back once again since i
    have book-marked it. Money and freedom is the greatest way to change, may you be rich
    and continue to guide other people.

  81. Hi, I do believe this is a great site. I stumbledupon it 😉 I’m going to revisit yet
    again since i have saved as a favorite it. Money and freedom is the greatest way to change, may you be
    rich and continue to help others.

  82. Hey! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know how
    to make your site mobile friendly? My website looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone.

    I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.
    If you have any recommendations, please share.

    Thanks!

  110. Do you mind if I quote a couple of your articles as long as I provide credit and sources back to your weblog?

    My website is in the exact same niche as yours and my
    users would truly benefit from some of the information you present here.
    Please let me know if this okay with you. Appreciate it!

  127. Right here is the right website for everyone who really
    wants to find out about this topic. You understand a whole lot
    its almost hard to argue with you (not that I personally would want
    to…HaHa). You certainly put a new spin on a topic that’s been discussed for ages.
    Wonderful stuff, just wonderful!

  130. Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still
    new to everything. Do you have any tips for first-time blog writers?
    I’d genuinely appreciate it.

  135. I think this is among the most vital info for me.
    And i’m glad reading your article. But wanna remark on few general things, The site style is ideal,
    the articles is really nice : D. Good job, cheers

  154. Personally, I’ve spent a lot of amount of days scanning various boards lately, and it’s really interesting the way the entire online industry is shifting. Considering my perspective, nearly all regular punters today honestly look for rapid cashouts instead of huge bonuses, given that stalling to get the winnings can feel extremely stressful. Myself, I observed that the decent spinmama report mostly mentions exactly how the brand deals with safety avoiding excessive technical issues. It is precisely why getting a correct entry point remains very crucial when one really expect for one to enjoy a perfect session https://yogaasanas.science/wiki/User:EliasPollock21 lacking constant glitches interrupting those best streaks. Additionally, this looks like mobile optimization is a defining point in this era, mostly with real-time croupier games. So, do you reckon whether spinmama is legit compared with older big brands we tended at one time to trust decades back? And, has anybody on this board tried their VIP scheme at spin mama eu recently? I’m currently very interested how to discover the community’s takes regarding their current features.

  174. Hello! I’m at work surfing around your blog from my new iphone 4!
    Just wanted to say I love reading through your blog and look forward to all
    your posts! Carry on the excellent work!

  177. Wonderful beat ! I wish to apprentice even as you amend your site, how could
    i subscribe for a weblog web site? The account helped me a appropriate deal.
    I were a little bit acquainted of this your broadcast provided shiny transparent concept
