Prevalence of Trypanosoma cruzi's Discrete Typing Units in a cohort of Latin American migrants in Spain

Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. This is an endemic disease in the Americas, but increased migration to Europe has made it emerge in countries where it was previously unknown, being Spain the second non endemic country in number of patients. T. cruzi is a parasite with a...
