Journal ArticleDOI
Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans and animals in the United States.
TL;DR: Seroprevalence of T. gondii in humans and pigs is declining and Modes of transmission, epidemiology and environmental contamination with oocysts on land and sea are discussed.
Journal Article

Jeffrey L. Jones,Debra L. Hanson,Mark S. Dworkin,David L. Alderton,Patricia L. Fleming,Jon E. Kaplan,John Ward +6 more
TL;DR: Data from the Adult/Adolescent Spectrum of HIV Disease sentinel surveillance project is used by persons involved with developing guidelines for preventing OIs to determine the importance of and trends in OIs and preventive therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of human immunodeficiency virus-associated opportunistic infections in the United States in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy.
Jonathan E. Kaplan,Debra L. Hanson,Mark S. Dworkin,Toni Frederick,Jeanne Bertolli,Mary Lou Lindegren,Scott D. Holmberg,Jeffrey L. Jones +7 more
TL;DR: The incidence of nearly all AIDS-defining opportunistic infections (OIs) decreased significantly in the United States during 1992-1998; decreases in the most common OIs were more pronounced in 1996-1998, during which time highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) was introduced into medical care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxoplasma gondii infection in the United States: seroprevalence and risk factors.
Jeffrey L. Jones,Deanna Kruszon-Moran,Marianna Wilson,Geraldine M. McQuillan,Thomas R. Navin,James B. McAuley +5 more
TL;DR: Risk for T. gondii infection increased with age and was higher among persons who were foreign-born, persons with a lower educational level, those who lived in crowded conditions, and those who worked in soil-related occupations, although in subset analyses risk categories varied by race/ethnicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly endemic, waterborne toxoplasmosis in north Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil.
Lilian M. G. Bahia-Oliveira,Jeffrey L. Jones,Juliana Azevedo-Silva,Cristiane C.F. Alves,Fernando Oréfice,David G. Addiss +5 more
TL;DR: Drinking unfiltered water increased the risk of T. gondii seropositivity, indicating the potential importance of oocyst transmission in water in this region, and a high T. Gondii Seroprevalence in this Brazilian community.
