| ARTICLES RELATED TO infections | | | | |  infections: Encyclopedia II - Poliomyelitis - InfectionPolio (infantile paralysis) is a communicable disease which is categorized as a disease of civilization. Polio spreads through human-to-human contact, usually entering the body through the mouth due to fecally contaminated water or food. The poliovirus is a small RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus that has three different strains and is extremely infectious. The virus invades the nervous system, and the onset of paralysis can occur in a matter of hours. While polio can strike a person at any age, over fifty percent of the cases occurred to childre ...

Instead, spyware gets on a system through deception of the user or through exploitation of software vulnerabilities.
The most direct route by which spyware can get on a computer involves the user installing it. However, users are unlikely to install software if they know that it may disrupt their working environment and compromise their privacy. So many spyware program ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Chagas disease - Infection cycle An infected triatomine insect vector takes a blood meal and releases trypomastigotes in its feces near the site of the bite wound. By scratching the site of the bite, the victim allows trypomastigotes to enter the host through the wound, or through intact mucosal membranes, such as the conjunctiva. Inside the host, the trypomastigotes invade cells, where they differentiate into intracellular amastigotes. The amastigotes multiply by binary fission and differentiate into trypomastigotes, and then are released into the circulation as bloodstrea ...

| | | | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - 28 Days Later - The Infected 28 Days Later differs from many zombie films in that "the Infected" are not undead zombies, but living humans driven insane by a highly communicable virus. As a result, rather than lumbering towards human victims like zombies, the Infected move extremely fast; and, because of an adrenaline rush, they have great strength and endurance. However, as they are not zombies the "only way to kill it is to shoot out its brain" rule that applies to zombies does not apply to them, so any wound t ...

| | | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Bubonic plague - Infection/transportation Bubonic plague is primarily a disease of rodents, particularly marmots (in which the most virulent strains of plague are primarily found), but also black rats, prairie dogs, chipmunks, squirrels and other similar large rodents. Human infection most often occurs when a person is bitten by a rat flea (Xenopsylla cheopsis) that has fed on an infected rodent. The bacillus multiplies in the stomach of the flea, blocking it. When the flea next bites a mammal, blood consumed by the flea is regurgitated along with the bacillus into the bloods ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Diaper rash - Secondary infection in irritant diaper dermatitis The significance of secondary infection in IDD remains controversial. Atherton contends that, “Candida albicans can only be isolated from a minority of IDD cases; in many cases this is a reflection of antibiotic therapy. It has also been established that bacterial infection does not play a substantial part in the development of IDD.”(Atherton, 2004, p. 646).
However, there is little argument that once the stratum corneum has been damaged by a combination of physical and chemical factors, the skin is necessarily more vulnera ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Feline infectious peritonitis - Transmission and infection FECV is very common, especially in places where large groups of cats are kept together (animal shelters, catteries, etc). Cats become infected by inhaling or ingesting the virus. The most commonly cited transmission source is feces, although virus-contaminated surfaces such as food dishes and clothing can trasmit the virus as well.
Despite the prevalence of FECV, most infected cats do not develop FIP. Often exposure to FECV produces no symptoms, but may cause a mild upper respiratory disease. Therefore, a cat with no symptoms whatsoev ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Marburg virus - Infection details Because many of the signs and symptoms of Marburg hemorrhagic fever are similar to those of other infectious diseases, such as malaria or typhoid, diagnosis of the disease can be difficult, especially if only a single case is involved.
The disease is characterised by the sudden onset of fever, headache, and muscle pain after an incubation period of 3-9 days. Within a week, a maculopapular rash develops, followed by vomiting, chest and abdominal pain, and diarrhea. The disease can then become increasingly damaging, causing jaundice, de ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Trojan horse computing - Methods of Infection Infected Programs: The majority of trojan horse infections occur because the user was tricked into running an infected program. This is why you're not supposed to open attachments on emails -- the program is often a cute animation or a sexy picture, but behind the scenes it infects the computer with a trojan or worm. The infected program doesn't have to arrive via email, though; it can be sent to you in an Instant Message, downloaded from a Web site or by FTP, or even delivered on a CD or floppy disk. (Physical delivery is uncommon, b ...

| | | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Intestinal parasite - What are the signs of intestinal parasite infection? In some people, intestinal parasites do not cause any symptoms, or the symptoms may come and go. Common signs and complaints include coughing, cramping abdominal pain, bloating, "gas" and diarrhea. In more serious infections, weight loss, fever, nausea, vomiting, or bloody stools may occur. Some parasites also cause low red blood count (anemia), and some travel from the lungs to the intestine, or from the intestine to the lungs and other parts of the body. Many conditions besides intestinal parasite infecti ...

| | | | | infections: Encyclopedia II - Condom - Effectiveness of condoms in preventing sexually-transmitted infections STIs According to a 2001 study by the National Institutes of Health, correct and consistent condom use:
reduces the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission by approximately 85%.
reduces the risk of gonorrhea for men by approximately 71%.
Other sexually-transmitted infections may be affected as well, but they could not draw definite conclusions from the research they were working with. In particular, these include STIs associated with ulcerative lesions that may be present on body surfaces where the condom doesn't cover, ...
