Research Article: Evaluation of Renal Function Profile in Human Visceral Leishmaniasis (Kala-Azar) Patients: A Case of Western Tigray, Ethiopia

Date Published: 2023-06-28

Abstract:
Leishmaniasis is a group of parasitic diseases caused by more than species of obligate intracellular protozoa of the genus Leishmania that are transmitted between humans and other mammalian hosts by phlebotomine sandflies. It occurs in four forms: visceral leishmaniasis (VL, aka kala-azar), post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL), cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis., Leishmania parasites have two basic life stages: promastigote and amastigote. The amastigotes exist in vertebrate hosts and promastigotes in an invertebrate host.
