Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by blood flukes (Trematodes) of the genus Schistosoma (S.). It is well documented that schistosomiasis haematobium was endemic in Ancient Egypt. Infection was diagnosed in mummies 3000, 4000 and 5000 years old. Scott was the first to describe the pattern of schistosomiasis infection in Egypt. Schistosomiasis haematobium was highly prevalent (60%) bo...
The transmission in West Africa of Schisto&&a haematobium by Bulinus truncatus and B. globosus is well known (BROWN, 1980). On the contrary, B. senegalensis, widely distributed in the sub-desert and sahelian zone and associated principally with a temporary environment (BETTERTON et al., 1983), has been found naturally infected in Senegal and The Gambia only (VERCRUYSSE et al., 1985). In Niger, ...
BACKGROUND Large-scale schistosomiasis control programs are implemented in regions with diverse social and economic environments. A key epidemiological feature of schistosomiasis is its small-scale heterogeneity. Locally profiling disease dynamics including risk factors associated with its transmission is essential for designing appropriate control programs. To determine spatial distribution of...
BACKGROUND In the developing world co-infections and polyparasitism within humans appear to be the rule rather than the exception, be it any combination of inter-specific and/or inter- and intra-Genera mixed infections. Mixed infections might generate synergistic or antagonistic interactions and thereby clinically affect individuals and/or impact parasite epidemiology. METHODS The current stu...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact on schistosomiasis of biennial treatment with praziquantel (PZQ) among school-age children in Burkina Faso, the first country that achieved full national coverage with treatment of more than 90% of the school-age population. METHODS A cohort of 1727 schoolchildren (6-14 years old) was monitored at yearly intervals through a longitudinal survey. Additional grou...
Schistosomiasis remains one of the most prevalent parasitic diseases in the tropics and subtropics, but current statistics are outdated due to demographic and ecological transformations and ongoing control efforts. Reliable risk estimates are important to plan and evaluate interventions in a spatially explicit and cost-effective manner. We analysed a large ensemble of georeferenced survey data ...
An imported case of Schistosoma haematobium infection presenting with haematuria and proteinuria is described. This would constitute a first case of urinary schistosomiasis in Malaysia. The patient failed to respond to multiple antibiotic treatment and was successfully treated with praziquantel.
