The nematode infection t ... hat may become more severe through ingestion of infective eggs, especially in infected infants, is: a. Ancylostoma duodenale b. Enterobius vermicularis c. Strongyloides stercoralis d. Trichinella spiralis 3. In the Ascaris lumbricoides life cycle, after eggs are ingested, the next stage in the life cycle that must occur before a mature adult can live in the host’s intestine is called the: a. Diagnostic stage b. Infective stage c. Liver-lung migration d. Method of infection Answer Key for Chapter 2. Nematoda 1. A clinical sign that may suggest the presence of a filarial nematode infection is: a. Diarrhea b. Eosinophilia c. Jaundice d. Microcytic anemia ANS: B RATIONALE: Migrating nematodes, especially filarial parasites, are usually associated with blood or tissue eosinophilia. KEY: Nematoda: life cycle/clinical symptoms | Cognitive level: correlation 2. The nematode infection that may become more severe through ingestion of infective eggs, especially in infected infants, is: a. Ancylostoma duodenale b. Enterobius vermicularis c. Strongyloides stercoralis d. Trichinella spiralis ANS: B RATIONALE: Enterobius vermicularis infections become more severe due to the pruritus caused by new eggs released by dying females, which leads to autoreinfection through ingestion of these new eggs. KEY: Nematoda: life cycle | Cognitive level: correlation 3. In the Ascaris lumbricoides life cycle, after eggs are ingested, the next stage in the life cycle that must occur before a mature adult can live in the host’s intestine is called the: a. Diagnostic stage b. Infective stage c. Liver-lung migration d. Method of infection ANS: C RATIONALE: The liver-lung migration phase of the Ascaris lumbricoides life cycle occurs as the larva form migrates from the intestine to the lungs before returning to the intestine to become a mature adult worm.
