- The first report in the Western Hemisphere of Angiostrongylus cantonensis, which causes eosinophilic meningoencephalitis, was made in Cuba, in 1981. For 25 years, several Cuban researchers have studied the parasite and the disease it produces in human beings. In order to analyse the scientific impact of these contributions, Medline (PubMed), ScieELO, Revistas Médicas Cubanas, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar y WOSCU databases, were reviewed. The 37 papers found are a proof of the contributions or our researchers to the universal knowledge of this emerging parasitosis in our hemisphere.
