نویسندگان

چکیده

Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by trematode blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma , affecting over 250 million people mainly in tropics. Clinically, can present itself with acute symptoms, stage which relatively more common naive travellers originating from non-endemic regions. It also develop into chronic disease, outcome depending on species involved, duration and intensity infection several host-related factors. A range diagnostic tests available to determine infection, including microscopy, antibody detection, antigen detection using Point-Of-Care Circulating Cathodic Antigen (POC-CCA) test Up-Converting Particle Lateral Flow Anodic (UCP-LF CAA) test, as well Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests (NAATs) such real-time PCR. In this mini review, we discuss these different procedures explore their most appropriate use context-specific settings. With regard endemic settings, approaches are described based suitability for individual diagnosis, monitoring control programs, determining elimination public health problem eventual interruption transmission. For summarize suitable imported cases, either or chronic. Additionally, options disease-specific clinical presentations genital schistosomiasis neuro-schistosomiasis included. Finally, specific role within research settings described, controlled human model studies. conclusion, have requirements stressing importance well-considered decision procedure.

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
