REVISTA BRASILEIRA DE PARASITOLOGIA VETERINARIA
Scope & Guideline
Exploring the Frontiers of Veterinary Parasitology Knowledge
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Diversity of Parasites:
The journal focuses on the identification and characterization of various parasitic organisms affecting a wide range of hosts, including domestic animals, wildlife, and fish. This includes both morphological and molecular studies. - Epidemiology and Risk Assessment:
Research published in the journal often includes epidemiological studies that assess the prevalence, risk factors, and geographic distribution of parasitic infections, providing critical insights for public health and veterinary practices. - Control and Management Strategies:
The journal features studies on the effectiveness of various control measures against parasites, including chemical, biological, and integrated pest management approaches. This includes research on anthelmintic resistance and the efficacy of alternative treatments. - Impact of Parasites on Health and Production:
A significant emphasis is placed on understanding how parasitic infections affect the health, productivity, and welfare of affected animals, alongside their economic implications for livestock and wildlife management. - Zoonotic Potential of Parasites:
The journal also addresses the zoonotic aspects of parasitic infections, exploring the implications for human health and the interface between wildlife, domestic animals, and humans.
Trending and Emerging
- Molecular Parasitology:
There is a growing trend towards molecular characterization of parasites, including genetic studies that reveal insights into species diversity, phylogenetics, and resistance mechanisms. - Anthelmintic Resistance and Alternatives:
Research on anthelmintic resistance is gaining traction, with studies focusing on the mechanisms of resistance and the exploration of alternative treatments, including natural products and integrated pest management strategies. - One Health Approach:
The integration of veterinary parasitology with public health and environmental concerns is increasingly prominent, emphasizing the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. - Impact of Climate Change on Parasitism:
Emerging studies are investigating how climate change affects parasite distribution, life cycles, and host-parasite interactions, highlighting the need for adaptive management strategies. - Use of Technology in Parasitology:
The application of new technologies, such as machine learning and predictive modeling, is on the rise, particularly in understanding and predicting parasitic infections and their impacts.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Helminthology:
While still a relevant area, the frequency of studies solely focused on traditional helminths has decreased as researchers increasingly explore broader ecological and molecular aspects of parasitology. - In vitro Studies of Antiparasitic Efficacy:
The number of articles focusing exclusively on in vitro testing of antiparasitic agents has waned, possibly due to a growing preference for in vivo studies that better reflect real-world scenarios. - Case Reports of Rare Parasitic Infections:
There has been a noticeable decline in case reports detailing rare or unusual parasitic infections in animals, suggesting a shift towards more generalized and widespread epidemiological studies.
