Answer:

Giardia lamblia

Explanation:

   Giardia lamblia, a flagellated protozoan that exists in the form of cyst and  trophozoite. The cyst is the infective form found in the environment.

    Protozoan infection mainly affects the upper portion  of the small intestine. Most infections are asymptomatic and occur  in both adults and children. Symptomatic infection may present with diarrhea, accompanied by abdominal pain. This condition may be chronic in nature, characterized by softened  with fat aspect, accompanied by fatigue, anorexia, flatulence and  abdominal distension. Anorexia, associated with malabsorption, can lead to weight loss and anemia.

   The transmission can be due fecal-oral. Direct, by contamination of the hands and consequent ingestion  of existing cysts in infected person waste; or indirectly through  ingestion of contaminated water or food.

Local anesthetics block voltage-gated Na+ channels, but they do not block mechanically gated ion channels. Sensory receptors for
Vinvika [58]

Local anesthetics inhibit nerve conduction in a reversible manner without altering the nerve. The inhibition appears rapidly and for a longer or shorter duration depending on the products and the concentrations used. The extent of the territory rendered insensitive to pain depends on the modes of administration of the local anesthetic, either at the level of the nerve endings, or at the level of a nervous trunk, for example.

They act at the level of the neuronal membrane by interfering with the process of excitation and conduction. The anesthetic crosses the axon membrane, rich in lipids, in the form of base before taking up a cationic form on the internal face of the neuron where the pH is more acidic.

At this level, there is a blockage of nerve conduction by decreasing the membrane permeability to sodium ions that occurs during the depolarization phase. As the progression of the anesthetic action along the nerve increases, the threshold of excitability increases and the conduction time increases. This is completely blocked from a certain concentration of local anesthetic.

The nerve fibers are unequally sensitive to the action of local anesthetics: they disappear in order: the painful, thermal, tactile sensations.
