La Naegleria fowleri, un’ameba letale che si nutre del cervello, causa la meningoencefalite amebica primaria (PAM), un’infezione cerebrale fatale. Questa revisione evidenzia l’allarmante prevalenza della PAM a livello globale, con il Pakistan al secondo posto, in particolare a Karachi. In particolare, le vittime contraggono la PAM attraverso le abluzioni di routine con l’acqua del rubinetto piuttosto che attraverso l’esposizione all’acqua per scopi ricreativi. Il nostro studio sull’acqua di rubinetto di Karachi ha rilevato N. fowleri in 22 dei 36 campioni tramite PCR, rivelando gravi problemi di igiene dell’acqua. Cariche microbiche elevate e bassi livelli di cloro indicano carenze nel trattamento dell’acqua. Miglioramenti urgenti delle infrastrutture, dei protocolli di disinfezione e delle campagne di sensibilizzazione del pubblico sono fondamentali per mitigare i rischi di PAM. Ulteriori analisi molecolari dei ceppi di N. fowleri sono essenziali per comprendere i meccanismi della malattia e perfezionare i trattamenti.
