Among the new gay men with HIV disease ? Health News, Fitness ...

A rare parasitic disease, which is usually transmitted by contaminated water, has been shown to be transmitted through sex between gay men with HIV. For this observation, a researcher at Taiwan?s Chiang Ching-Hung received his Ph.D. from the University of Antwerp and the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp.In Taiwan, HIV positive have shown gay people to be more often infected with the amoeba that people in good health, and also that the heterosexual HIV-positive. In addition, Hung found men from different regions, however, infection with amoeba closely related. The only reasonable explanation is that the infection occurred through homosexual contact .

Amoebiasis is an infection of Entamoeba histolytica with the single-celled amoeba is normally very rare. It becomes dangerous only when the amoeba invades the intestinal mucosa and causes of blood, or when it enters the bloodstream, where he, among other things, the causes of liver abscesses. In any amoebiasis takes about 70,000 lives each year around the world.

In other words, doctors in industrialized countries from now to know better who is Entamoeba histolytica, and what it brings.

But it was difficult to draw conclusions from small numbers, and in addition the classical diagnostic test was not very reliable. Hung used modern molecular biology techniques to identify more precisely the amoeba and, above all, demonstrating that amoebas were closely related.

In other words: who has the infection of this.
