Humans are the only natural host of " Enterobius vermicularis " . " Enterobius gregorii ", another human species is morphologically indistinguishable from " Enterobius vermicularis " except the spicule size.

Other species seen in primates include " Enterobius buckleyi " in Orangutan and " Enterobius anthropopitheci " in chimpanzee . " Enterobius vermicularis " is common in human children and transmitted via the faecal-oral route.

Organisms responsible for vulvitis in children include pinworms ( " Enterobius vermicularis " ), " diabetes or immunodeficiency . " Candida " infections cause a red raised vulvar rash with satellite lesions and clear borders, and are diagnosed by microscopically examining a sample treated with potassium hydroxide for hyphae.

Similarly, " Hymenolepis nana ", " Trichoris trichiura ", " Ascaris lumbricoides ", " Strongyloides stercolaris ", " Enterobius vermicularis ", and " Trichuris suis " ova have all been found to lower the number of symptom exacerbations, reduce the number of symptom relapses, and decrease the number of new or enlarging brain lesions in patients with multiple sclerosis at doses ranging from 1, 180 to 9, 340 eggs per gram.
10.
While the latter four species may be considered to be mutualists-providing benefit to their host without causing longterm harm-there are other helminth species that have demonstrated therapeutic effects but which also have a potential to cause less desirable or even harmful effects and therefore do not share the ideal characteristics for a therapeutic helminth . commonly known as human giant roundworm; " Strongyloides stercoralis ", commonly known as human roundworm; " Enterobius vermicularis ", commonly known as threadworm or seatworm; and " Hymenolepis nana ", also known as dwarf tapeworm.
