Illnesses Causes by Parasites in Human Populations, Treatments and Preventive Strategies

Abstract

The living world has been formed by and will continue to be influenced by interspecific relationships between species. The range of these connections, from mutualism to parasitism, is enormous. There are a range of microorganisms that are essential for human existence. There are times when interactions aren't productive. Plasmodium species, which cause malaria, are only one example of a possible pathogen. In the same way that many other microorganisms have an adaptive advantage, they are Machiavellian in their capacity to design a range of reproduction techniques. A vital function that parasites plays in the ecology and evolution of all living things, including humans. Although humans represent just one ecosystem out of many, neglecting to understand this has an impact on our overall image of the system, research on infectious diseases is really focused on humans. Our knowledge of the bacteria with whom  share our surroundings is poor. Contrary to this belief, parasite-induced changes in the human DNA are still taking place today. There is evidence that humans have been susceptible to parasitic selective forces during most of their evolution. However, what are the pathogen-inhabiting solutions? Why don't we learn how to better control and manage them?
