Abstract:

Visceral leishmaniasis, also known as kala-azar, has an insidious onset with constitutional features. Subsequently the intense parasitism of the reticuloendothelial system causes hepatosplenomegaly, anaemia, leucopenia, and thrombocytopaenia as well as hypergammaglobulinaemia. Kidney involvement manifests with proteinuria up to 1 g/24 hours, micro/macrohaematuria, and leucocyturia. Kidney involvement is generally mild and reversible with the treatment of infection. Biopsy appearances of diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis, mesangial proliferation, and occasionally focal necrotizing glomerulonephritis with crescents have been described. Defects of urinary concentration and acidification have also been observed. Acute kidney injury (AKI) may be seen in one-third of patients and is associated with increased mortality.Trypanosomiasis has two forms. It causes sleeping sickness in Africa (T. brucei, transmitted by tsetse flies) or Chagas disease in South America (T. cruzei, transmitted by reduvid bugs). There is no direct association of these conditions with nephropathy, although there is in experimental models. AKI may occur, typically as a manifestation of multi-organ failure in African trypanosomiasis. APOL1 genotypes that confer susceptibility to FSGS are protective against T. brucei infection.

Abstract:

The tsetse fly is a pan-African insect that bites an infective forest animal and ingests blood filled with invisible parasites, which it carries and transmits into cattle and people as it bites them, leading to n'gana (animal trypanosomiasis) and sleeping sickness. This book examines how the presence of the tsetse fly turned the forests of Zimbabwe and southern Africa into an open laboratory where African knowledge formed the basis of colonial tsetse control policies. The book traces the pestiferous work that an indefatigable, mobile insect does through its movements, and the work done by humans to control it. The book restores the central role not just of African labor but of African intellect in the production of knowledge about the tsetse fly. It describes how European colonizers built on and beyond this knowledge toward destructive and toxic methods, including cutting down entire forests, forced “prophylactic” resettlement, massive destruction of wild animals, and extensive spraying of organochlorine pesticides. Throughout, the book uses African terms to describe the African experience, taking vernacular concepts as starting points in writing a narrative of ruzivo (knowledge) rather than viewing Africa through foreign keywords.
