Hermed yderligere opdatering vedr. TG og mentale sygdomme, som opfølgning på fremlæggelse
for Folketinget den 6/11-2014.
Der kommer konstant ny videnskab der cementerer TG's rolle i mentale sygdomme (Skizofreni,
Alzheimers, Parkinsons, Depression, OCD osv.).
Den enorme volumen af videnskab der peger på dette er omvendt proportional med åbenheden
herom.
"Seropositivity and Serointensity of Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies and DNA among Patients with
Schizophrenia."
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25748706
"These
findings have further demonstrated the strong association between the active Tg
infection and schizophrenia."
"Toxoplasma gondii and schizophrenia (again
and again)"

"Targeting Common Parasite Could Help Treat Certain Mental Disorders"

disorders/article/403368/
"There
are several mechanisms by which T. gondii may influence behavior
and the
development of mental disorders, but “one
of the most studied at the moment is the increase in
dopamine in the brains of people with toxoplasmosis,”
Guillaume Fond, MD, a psychiatrist and
researcher at the Schizophrenia Expert Center in Créteil, France, told Psychiatry Advisor.
The
neurotransmitter plays an important role in the brain's reward system and functions like
motivation, cognition, and fear regulation.

fifth of schizophrenia cases 'may be attributable to T. gondii infection"

Ovenstående ligger i logisk forlængelse af hvad Folketinget blev informeret om i november sidste
år - og er (atter) et
kald til handling.
Vi stiller naturligvis vores dokumentation og viden til rådighed for enhver.
Med venlig hilsen
