Modelling the Effects of Snail Control and Health Education in Clonorchiasis Infection in Foshan, China

open access: yesComplexity, 2019
Clonorchiasis is the most important food-borne parasitic disease in China. In this paper, a mathematical model of clonorchiasis sinensis is proposed to mimic its transmission dynamics to assess the effects of intervention strategies such as snail control,

A Combination of the Kato-Katz Methods and ELISA to Improve the Diagnosis of Clonorchiasis in an Endemic Area, China [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Examination of feces by light microscopy is widely used for specific parasitological diagnosis of clonorchiasis. However, the true incidence of infection is underestimated owing to the high missing diagnosis rate of this method.

Effects of fish–human transmission and different life stages of fish on Clonorchiasis: A novel mathematical model [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences
Clonorchiasis is a zoonotic disease mainly caused by eating raw fish and shrimp, and there is no vaccine to prevent it. More than 30 million people are infected worldwide, of which China alone accounts for about half, and is one of the countries most ...

Recurrent Pyogenic Cholangitis with Probable Intercurrent Latent Clonorchiasis in a Filipino Migrant to Canada: A Review of Implications for Diagnosis and Management

open access: yesParasitologia
Clonorchiasis is a parasitic infection caused by the trematode Clonorchis sinensis, which is endemic to East Asia but increasingly observed in non-endemic regions due to global migration. Chronic infection can lead to recurrent pyogenic cholangitis (RPC)

Clonorchiasis sinensis detected by laparoscopic exploration of biliary tracts in two patients with obstructive jaundice

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Hepatic clonorchiasis is one of the most prevalent food-borne parasitic diseases worldwide. Clonorchis sinensis, the pathogen, is the major parasitic trigger contributing to cholangitis, cholelithiasis, and even cholangiocarcinoma ...
