A search for the parasite must therefore be made in all biopsy samples obtained from this area. Furthermore, giardiasis was not associated with a particular gastric disease, such as chronic atrophic gastritis of the body.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
