Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Parasitology

Context:

  • Trichinellosis control was considered achieved in Europe until the 1990s.
  • Socio-economic and ecological changes have led to its re-emergence in Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe.
  • Molecular studies reveal complex epidemiology involving multiple Trichinella species.

Purpose:

  • To review the current knowledge on the clinical manifestations of human trichinellosis.
  • To address the epidemiological shifts and persistent sylvatic cycles of Trichinella species in the region.

Summary:

  • Trichinellosis has re-emerged as a significant public health concern in Eastern Europe.
  • Molecular data indicate a more intricate epidemiological landscape than previously understood.
  • While Trichinella spiralis is eradicated in Hungary, Trichinella britovi remains prevalent in wildlife.

Impact:

  • Provides a comprehensive overview of human trichinellosis clinical features.
  • Highlights the need for updated understanding and control strategies for this re-emerging zoonotic disease.
  • Informs public health professionals and researchers on the current status of trichinellosis in Europe.
