Patterns of disease may take on irregular geographic shapes, especially when features of the physical environment influence risk. Identifying these patterns can be important for planning, and also identifying new environmental or social factors assoc

Schistosoma haematobium infection causes urogenital schistosomiasis, a chronic inflammatory disease that is highly prevalent in many parts of sub‐Saharan Africa. Bulinid snails are the obligate intermediate hosts in the transmission of this parasit

OBJECTIVES Chronic exposure to malaria exacerbates Schistosoma mansoni-associated hepatosplenomegaly in school-aged children. However, residual hepatosplenomegaly after treatment of S. mansoni with concurrent mollusciciding suggests malaria could be

In schistosomiasis endemic areas, children are very susceptible to postchemotherapy reinfection, whereas adults are relatively resistant. Different studies have reported that schistosome-specific IL-4 and IL-5 responses, or posttreatment worm-IgE lev

Evaluating regression of morbidity associated with parasitic infections is an important component of community-based control programmes. We performed an intervention against Schistosoma mansoni infection, focusing on hepatosplenomegaly in the absence

Urinary schistosomiasis remains a major contributor to the disease burden along the southern coast of Kenya. Selective identification of transmission hot spots offers the potential for more effective, highly-focal snail control and human chemotherapy

To estimate their heritable component of risk for Schistosoma haematobium infection intensity and disease, we performed a community-based family study among an endemic population in coastal Kenya. Demography and family linkages were defined by house-

Severe periportal fibrosis is not an inevitable consequence of infection with Schistosoma mansoni. Genetic predisposition may be a deciding factor in the development of disease. To assess the contribution of genetic factors in the severity of hepatic
