    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To explore the development of the study on Angiostrongylus cantonensis. METHODS: A total of 930 papers were searched from the PubMed and Chinese Bio-medical Disc(CBM) database under the search terms of Angiostrongylus cantonensis and analyzed through publication time, journal and contents. RESULTS: The number of papers published was found to increase annually, and two peaks of publication in national magazines occurred since 1996. Most papers were published in tropical medicine or professional journal of parasitology. The reports mostly documented cases and epidemiological investigations, and only a few investigated pathogenic mechanisms, drug treatment and other basic theory. CONCLUSION: It is in the initial stage of the study on Angiostrongylus cantonensis and Angiostrongyliasis, and there are a vast space in diagnosis, pathogenic mechanism, therapy and prevalence of Angiostrongyliasis cantonensis.
