Proof that Dirofilariasis in Humans Has Never Been Studied
The pathology of Dirofilariasis in humans has never even been studied. Because there is no test for the disease it is impossible to know who has this disease so it is impossible to gather patients together to create a proper cohort study of the disease. In fact, nowhere is it even identified that an Occult Infection is the default state of this disease in humans. With such a fundamental omission it should be completely obvious that this disease has never been studied properly.
The only detectable manifestation of this disease that can possibly occur prior to a successful occult form of this disease is the cutaneous skin nodule. All other instances of this disease become a part of the occult infection first before traveling to any other areas of the body where they might at some point become visible to a doctor. If its not at the original site of infection then it is part of a successful occult infection.
But can we actually prove there has been no proper study?
Yes! A simple search on Google Scholar with the right search terms will return zero results thus demonstrating that there is a complete lack of any clinical research other than a few token case studies which look only at manifestations of the disease which are visible to a doctor. These cases are a statistically an insignificant minority of the total number of infections.
To verify this is in fact the case, go to Google Scholar ( https://lnkd.in/ghANZbj ) and do a few quick searches found below.
Enter each set of the following search terms:
“Dirofilaria” “Human” “long term study”
“Dirofilaria” “Human” “cohort”
“Dirofilaria” “Human” “occult” “Study”
Do enter the quotes in the above queries. Each query above will return all the exact matches before any partial matches are returned. After each search result is returned quickly scan down those results for any record on that first page that contains every single search term you provided. Starting from the top of the returned results, count them. It’s zero. The very first record will be off-topic and without having all three search terms in that journal paper. Feel free to try other search terms as the last parameter just to prove that the search engine is actually working correctly.
So, there are no experts on the topic of Human Dirofilariasis Pathology. Anyone that even claims to understand this disease in humans is simply not telling the truth, because the default pathology in humans has never been studied. Until there is a clinical test developed for occult infections in humans we will never be able to study this disease properly. There can be no diagnosis, no statistics, and thus no money that is needed to develop a proper clinical research study for this disease. Until that time it is impossible to declare that this disease is not a problem simply due to lack of evidence. If you never even look for evidence you will clearly never find it. Come volunteer to help us set the record straight. Nobody should be forced to live with such a horrible disease.
