BACKGROUND Despite control efforts, human schistosomiasis remains prevalent throughout Africa, Asia, and South America. The global schistosomiasis burden has changed little since the new anthelmintic drug, praziquantel, promised widespread control. METHODOLOGY We evaluated large-scale schistosomiasis control attempts over the past century and across the globe by identifying factors that predi...
The current knowledge of immunological responses to schistosomiasis is insufficient for the development of vaccine and therapies. The role of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells in schistosome infections is not fully defined. The frequency of circulating Tfh cells and serum cytokine levels were analyzed in 11 patients with chronic schistosomiasis and 10 healthy controls (HC), who reside in an endem...
BACKGROUND Schistosomiasis affects the reproductive health of women. Described sequelae are ectopic pregnancy, infertility, abortion, and cervical lesions and symptoms mimicking cervical cancer and STIs. There are indications that cervical schistosomiasis lesions could become co-factors for viral infection such as HIV and HPV. METHODS In a retrospective descriptive histopathological study cli...
ABSTRACT Background: Schistosoma haematobium is a parasite that is carried by freshwater snails and induces gastrointestinal and urinary disease, depending on its species. In Khoozestan, one of the provinces in Iran, schistosomiasis was endemic. This study reports the results of schistosomiasis control in this region. Methods: From 1981 to 2001 nearly 650 villages and 20 cities were under surv...
In hospital-based series viral hepatitis B has been frequently described in association with schistosomiasis whilst in field-based studies the association has not been confirmed. The association between schistosomiasis and Salmonella bacteraemia has been well documented. More recently, acute schistosomiasis has been shown to be a facilitating factor in the genesis of pyogenic liver abscesses ca...
BACKGROUND Schistosomiasis japonica still remains of public health and economic significance in China, especially in the lake and marshland areas along the Yangtze River Basin, where the control of transmission has proven difficult. In the study, we investigated spatio-temporal variations of S. japonicum infection risk in Anhui Province and assessed the associations of the disease with key envi...
Dams have long been associated with elevated burdens of human schistosomiasis, but how dams increase disease is not always clear, in part because dams have many ecological and socio-economic effects. A recent hypothesis argues that dams block reproduction of the migratory river prawns that eat the snail hosts of schistosomiasis. In the Senegal River Basin, there is evidence that prawn populatio...
Abstract Schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease, affects millions of lives and accounts for thousands deaths each year. The Schistosoma parasites depend on two hosts during their lifecycle: snails as intermediate human beings definitive hosts. Therefore, to control ultimately eliminate schistosomiasis relies the reduction snail populations well prevention treatment infections. Praziquant...
Perigenital cutaneous schistosomiasis was diagnosed in a patient who had no previous genitourinary or gastrointestinal symptoms suggesting schistosomiasis; his only symptom was a pruritic papular rash in the perineum. Late cutaneous schistosomiasis due to deposition of ova in the dermis is rare but can affect the genital and periumbilical areas. This report highlights the difficulty in diagnosi...
Masih tingginya angka kejadian schistosomiasis pada keong (2,56%) di Sulawesi Tengah dapat meningkatkan risiko terjadinya penularan manusia. Penurunan kasus infeksi manusia dilakukan dengan melibatkan masyarakat dalam program pencegahan yang mengarah peningkatan perilaku dan kesadaran tentang penyakit schistosomiasis. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuantitatif pendekatan cross sectional meng...
