: SEM images are representative and provide qualitative evidence only. The proportion of cysts showing each morphological change was not quantified, limiting the ability to generalize the findings. Additionally, molecular subtyping of Blastocystis was not performed, which restricts conclusions regarding strain-specific pathogenicity. Future studies should include systematic quantification of morphological alterations and parasite subtyping to strengthen the interpretation and relevance of the results.
