  • Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), also known as sleeping sickness, is a vector-borne parasitic disease transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected tsetse fly (Glossina spp). The disease is endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, within the limits of the geographic distribution of the tsetse fly. Two sub-species of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei cause the disease in humans: T.b. gambiense and T.b. rhodesiense. Infection with T.b. gambiense causes the chronic form of HAT (gambiense ...

  • Exam (elaborations) • 7 pages • 2024
  • Introduction Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), or African Sleeping Sickness, is caused by two sub-species of Trypanosoma brucei. T. b. gambiense accounts for approximately 95% of HAT infections and occurs across East and Central sub-Saharan Africa. The remaining infections are caused by T. b. rhodesiense in West and Southern Africa. The disease has two stages: Stage 1, where the parasites are limited to the bloodstream, interstitial fluids and lymph of the patient, and stage 2, where ...

  • Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), also known as sleeping sickness, is an infectious disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei (T b) gambiense or T b rhodesiense which usually has a fatal outcome after two to three years if left untreated (Buscher et al., 2017; Sudarshi et al., 2014). The parasite is transmitted by tsetse flies that are only present in a number of Sub-Saharan African countries. The West African variant caused by T b gambiense (g-HAT) is the most common form of t...
