Clinical Information

  • Toxoplasmosis

    the acquired form of infection by toxoplasma gondii in animals and man.
  • Toxoplasmosis, Animal

    acquired infection of non-human animals by organisms of the genus toxoplasma.
  • Toxoplasmosis, Cerebral

    infections of the brain caused by the protozoan toxoplasma gondii that primarily arise in individuals with immunologic deficiency syndromes (see also aids-related opportunistic infections). the infection may involve the brain diffusely or form discrete abscesses. clinical manifestations include seizures, altered mentation, headache, focal neurologic deficits, and intracranial hypertension. (from joynt, clinical neurology, 1998, ch27, pp41-3)
  • Toxoplasmosis, Congenital

    prenatal protozoal infection with toxoplasma gondii which is associated with injury to the developing fetal nervous system. the severity of this condition is related to the stage of pregnancy during which the infection occurs; first trimester infections are associated with a greater degree of neurologic dysfunction. clinical features include hydrocephalus; microcephaly; deafness; cerebral calcifications; seizures; and psychomotor retardation. signs of a systemic infection may also be present at birth, including fever, rash, and hepatosplenomegaly. (from adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, p735)
  • Toxoplasmosis, Ocular

    infection caused by the protozoan parasite toxoplasma in which there is extensive connective tissue proliferation, the retina surrounding the lesions remains normal, and the ocular media remain clear. chorioretinitis may be associated with all forms of toxoplasmosis, but is usually a late sequel of congenital toxoplasmosis. the severe ocular lesions in infants may lead to blindness.
  • Toxoplasma

    a genus of protozoa parasitic to birds and mammals. t. gondii is one of the most common infectious pathogenic animal parasites of man.
  • Adult Acquired Toxoplasmosis

    toxoplasmosis acquired in adulthood.
  • Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome 1|AGS1|Cree Encephalitis|Encephalopathy, Familial Infantile, with Intracranial Calcification and Chronic Cerebrospinal Fluid Lymphocytosis|Pseudotoxoplasmosis Syndrome

    a heritable condition, caused by mutation(s) in the trex1 gene, encoding three-prime repair exonuclease 1. clinical features and onset may vary significantly, but is characterized in its most severe form by cerebral atrophy, leukodystrophy, intracranial calcifications, chronic cerebrospinal fluid (csf) lymphocytosis, and increased concentrations of csf alpha-interferon.
  • Congenital Toxoplasmosis

    toxoplasma infection that is present from birth.
  • Cordonnier Grade 2 Parasitic Complication, Toxoplasmosis Infection without Organ Involvement|Cordonnier Grade 2 Parasitic Complication|Grade 2 Toxoplasmosis Infection without Organ Involvement

    any toxoplasmosis infection without organ involvement.
  • Cordonnier Grade 3 Parasitic Complication, Central Nervous System or Other Organ Toxoplasmosis|Grade 3 CNS or Other Organ Toxoplasmosis

    any toxoplasmosis infection with central nervous system involvement or other organ involvement.
  • Nephrotic Syndrome - Toxoplasmosis Associated|Toxoplasmosis Associated Nephrotic Syndrome

    nephrotic syndrome associated with a toxoplasmosis infection.
  • TORCH Antibody Measurement|Toxoplasmosis, Other Infections, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes Simplex Virus (TORCH) Antibody Panel Measurement

    a group of blood tests used to detect antibodies to toxoplasma gondii, rubella, cytomegalovirus, and herpes simplex virus to rule out congenital infections. a group of other infections may be tested as well, including varicella-zoster virus, hepatitis b virus, human immunodeficiency virus, parvovirus b19, and syphilis.
  • TORCH Syndrome|TORCH Infection|Toxoplasmosis, Other Infections, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes Simplex Virus (TORCH) Syndrome

    a syndrome that results from a group of infections that affect the fetus or the newborn. the group of infections includes toxoplasma gondii, rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, and other infections. the other infections include varicella-zoster virus, hepatitis b virus, human immunodeficiency virus, parvovirus b19, and syphilis. signs and symptoms include fever, feeding difficulties, petechial rash, jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, chorioretinitis, and microcephaly.
  • Toxoplasmosis

    a parasitic disease contracted by the ingestion or fetal transmission of toxoplasma gondii.

Patient Education


Hepatitis

What is hepatitis?

Hepatitis is inflammation of the liver. Inflammation is swelling that happens when tissues of the body are injured or infected. It can damage your liver. This swelling and damage can affect how well your liver functions.

Hepatitis can be an acute (short-term) infection or a chronic (long-term) infection. Some types of hepatitis cause only acute infections. Other types can cause both acute and chronic infections.

What causes hepatitis?

There are different types of hepatitis, with different causes:

  • Viral hepatitis is the most common type. It is caused by one of several viruses -- hepatitis viruses A, B, C, D, and E. In the United States, A, B, and C are the most common.
  • Alcoholic hepatitis is caused by heavy alcohol use
  • Toxic hepatitis can be caused by certain poisons, chemicals, medicines, or supplements
  • Autoimmune hepatitis is a chronic type in which your body's immune system attacks your liver. The cause is not known, but genetics and your environment may play a role.

How is viral hepatitis spread?

Hepatitis A and hepatitis E usually spread through contact with food or water that was contaminated with an infected person's stool. You can also get hepatitis E by eating undercooked pork, deer, or shellfish.

Hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and hepatitis D spread through contact with the blood of someone who has the disease. Hepatitis B and D may also spread through contact with other body fluids. This can happen in many ways, such as sharing drug needles or having unprotected sex.

Who is at risk for hepatitis?

The risks are different for the different types of hepatitis. For example, with most of the viral types, your risk is higher if you have unprotected sex. People who drink a lot over long periods of time are at risk for alcoholic hepatitis.

What are the symptoms of hepatitis?

Some people with hepatitis do not have symptoms and do not know they are infected. If you do have symptoms, they may include:

  • Fever
  • Fatigue
  • Loss of appetite
  • Nausea and/or vomiting
  • Abdominal pain
  • Dark urine
  • Clay-colored bowel movements
  • Joint pain
  • Jaundice, yellowing of your skin and eyes

If you have an acute infection, your symptoms can start anywhere between 2 weeks to 6 months after you got infected. If you have a chronic infection, you may not have symptoms until many years later.

What other problems can hepatitis cause?

Chronic hepatitis can lead to complications such as cirrhosis (scarring of the liver), liver failure, and liver cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment of chronic hepatitis may prevent these complications.

How is hepatitis diagnosed?

To diagnose hepatitis, your health care provider:

  • Will ask about your symptoms and medical history
  • Will do a physical exam
  • Will likely do blood tests, including tests for viral hepatitis
  • Might do imaging tests, such as an ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI
  • May need to do a liver biopsy to get a clear diagnosis and check for liver damage

What are the treatments for hepatitis?

Treatment for hepatitis depends on which type you have and whether it is acute or chronic. Acute viral hepatitis often goes away on its own. To feel better, you may just need to rest and get enough fluids. But in some cases, it may be more serious. You might even need treatment in a hospital.

There are different medicines to treat the different chronic types of hepatitis. Possible other treatments may include surgery and other medical procedures. People who have alcoholic hepatitis need to stop drinking. If your chronic hepatitis leads to liver failure or liver cancer, you may need a liver transplant.

Can hepatitis be prevented?

There are different ways to prevent or lower your risk for hepatitis, depending on the type of hepatitis. For example, not drinking too much alcohol can prevent alcoholic hepatitis. There are vaccines to prevent hepatitis A and B. Autoimmune hepatitis cannot be prevented.
