Abstract

Ascariasis, caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, is a widespread parasitic infection that primarily affects the small intestine. Recent research has provided new insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms by which Ascaris damages the intestinal mucosa, including mechanical injury, inflammatory response, and immunological alterations. This article explores scientific advancements in understanding how ascariasis contributes to villous atrophy, epithelial cell damage, and altered gut microbiota. The study highlights the latest findings on host-parasite interactions and their implications for developing new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
