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]
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]
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 ...

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)
