DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2020.105806
Abstract: Treatment of tegumentary leishmaniasis in Brazil is limited to pentavalent antimonial, amphotericin B and pentamidine. These drugs, administered parenterally, cause several side effects and have a varied clinical response, depending on the species of Leishmania.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femspd/fty025
Abstract: Abstract Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis is a causal agent of American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL). This protozoan has been poorly investigated; however, it can cause different clinical forms of ATL, ranging from a single cutaneous lesion to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0006125
Abstract: Background Tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) is a disease of skin and/or mucosal tissues caused by Leishmania parasites. TL patients may concurrently carry other pathogens, which may influence the clinical outcome of TL. Methodology and principal findings… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0009676
Abstract: The scarce information about breeding sites of phlebotomines limits our understanding of the epidemiology of tegumentary leishmaniasis. Identifying the breeding sites and seasons of immature stages of these vectors is essential to propose prevention and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0010996
Abstract: Background The epidemiological significance of wildlife infections with aetiological agents causing human infectious diseases is largely determined by their infection status, contact potential with humans (via vectors for vector-borne diseases), and their infectiousness to maintain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1590/0037-8682-0380-2019
Abstract: Abstract Tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) diagnosis is challenging due to the lack of a gold standard diagnostic tool. The diagnosis is significantly harder in regions where visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is also prevalent since immunological tests may… read more here.
