This approach is a valuable example of how different interventions can be integrated to promote durable STH control. Keywords: Soil-transmitted helminths, Multi-intervention, Control, Strategy, China *Correspondence: ...
Can chemotherapy alone eliminate the transmission of soil transmitted helminths? Background Amongst the world???s poorest populations, availability of anthelmintic treatments for the control of soil transmitted helminths (STH) by mass o...

The present article focuses on those zoonotic helminths transmitted from animals to humans that affect the human eye. Undoubtedly, the parasitic zoonotic diseases and their epidemiology have been changing as a result of complex factors including abiotic (e.g., increasing temperatures) and biotic (e....
Soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) are serious public health problems that occur mostly in underdeveloped nations, especially in sub-Saharan Africa [9]. There is a high prevalence of intestinal parasitic infection in Ethiopia, which can be caused by unsafe or insufficient water, unhygienic living ...
but predation of rodents as paratenic hosts may play a more important role than previously assumed [32]. The common hookworm of foxes,U. stenocephala, is assumed to be mainly transmitted to the definitive host orally with soil containing L3 larvae, but, to an unknown extent, also through ...
Background:Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections are widespread in developing countries with inadequate sanitation facilities. These infections can lead to malnutrition, anemia, and other complications that can negatively impact both the mother's and fetus's health during pregnancy. This study aimed...
An interplay of environmental and host factors favours mixed infections of malaria species with parasitic helminths including soil-transmitted helminths (STH) and Schistosoma species [1, 2]. Statistical and spatial models support the geographic overlap and co-endemicity of falciparum malaria and ...

The Gran Chaco ecoregion is a well-known hotspot of several neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) including Chagas disease, soil-transmitted helminthiasis and multiparasitic infections. Interspecific interactions between parasite species can modify host susceptibility, pathogenesis and transmissibility through immun...
Therefore, single-dose praziquantel can be used as a treatment of S. mansoni infection whereas single-dose mebendazole for the treatment of A. lumbricoides and hookworm infections should be replaced by a redosing regimen. Abbreviations STH: Soil-transmitted helminth MEB: Mebendazole PZQ: ...
