Angiostrongylus Cantonensis Impact Factor

Angiostrongylus cantonensis may be a parasitic nematode (roundworm) that causes angiostrongyliasis, the foremost common explanation for eosinophilic meningitis in Southeast Asia and therefore the Pacific Basin. The nematode commonly resides within the pulmonary arteries of rats, giving it the common name rat lungworm. Snails are the first intermediate hosts, where larvae develop until they're infectious. Humans are incidental hosts of this roundworm, and should become infected through ingestion of larvae in raw or undercooked snails or other vectors, or from contaminated water and vegetables. The larvae are then transported via the blood to the central systema nervosum, where they're the foremost common explanation for eosinophilic meningitis, a significant condition which will cause death or permanent brain and nerve damage. Angiostrongyliasis is an infection of accelerating public health importance, as globalization contributes to the geographic spread of the disease. The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of a tutorial journal is a scientometric index that reflects the yearly average number of citations that articles published within the last two years during a given journal received. it's frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field; journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to be more important than those with lower ones.
