Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the rat lungworm, is endemic to Hawaii. A recent increase in the number of cases has drawn intense local and national media attention. As a result there is an increased fear of acquiring the disease from local produce, which has the potential to adversely affect the income of local farmers. The most common means of transmission is by the ingestion of an infected intermediate host. Other modes of transmission have been suggested including infectious larvae being released into the mucus trail of gastropods. This literature review indicates that mucus trails from infected gastropods poses a minimal risk to humans.

腹足纲粘液在可能严重的神经感染的广州圆线虫传播中的作用。

大鼠肺蠕虫广州血管圆线虫Angiostrongylus cantonensis)是夏威夷特有的。案件数量最近有所增加,引起了地方和国家媒体的高度关注。结果,人们越来越担心从当地产品中感染该病,这可能会对当地农民的收入产生不利影响。最常见的传播途径是通过摄入感染的中间宿主。已经提出了其他传播方式,包括将传染性幼虫释放到腹足纲动物的粘液条中。这篇文献综述表明,被感染的腹足动物的粘液痕迹对人类的危害最小。
