Prevalence of S. haematobium in persistent hot-spot and low-prevalence shehias Table 1 shows the prevalence of S. haematobium in children visiting the primary schools located in any of the seven study shehias, stratified by survey year. The average S. haematobium prevalence across all three survey years in 9 – 12 years old schoolchildren was 20.0 % (95

The Schistosoma haematobium egg granuloma
Cellular Immunology, 1978Abstract The etiology of the granulomatous response around Schistosoma haematobium eggs in mice was investigated. Eggs injected into the microvasculature of the lungs of mice evoked a granulomatous reaction which was demonstrated at 8 and 16 days.

Schistosoma haematobium infection in pregnancy
Acta Tropica, 1992Due to the economical lack of safe drugs in a remote area of Ghana (Bawku District) to treat Schistosoma haematobium infection during pregnancy, the spontaneous outcome of the pregnancy in women with proved S. haematobium infection was compared with a control group (average hospital delivery). In a survey of 200 pregnant women, we found a prevalence of

Cryoglobulins in "Schistosoma haematobium" infection
Acta tropica, 1983The sera of school children with Schistosoma haematobium infection were tested for the presence of cold-insoluble immune complexes "the cryoglobulins". Two different methods were used: the standard macro-technique and the micro-adaptation technique. On using the standard macro-technique, 40 (32.8%) out of 122 schistosomiasis patients and 6 (7.5%) out ...

Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma haematobium: Differences in development
Experimental Parasitology, 1981Abstract Growth and maturation of the Puerto Rico strain of Schistosoma mansoni in mice and the Ghana strain of Schistosoma haematobium in hamsters were compared beginning 19 days after infection. In S. mansoni, optimum development was determined, with copulation first observed on Day 25, egg shell protein formation observed on Day 28, and ...

Granulomatous Dacryoadenitis Caused by Schistosoma haematobium
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1977An 11-year-old boy from Sierra Leone developed a mass in the left lacrimal gland a year after trauma to the left side of the brow. Biopsy of the mass led to the diagnosis of schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma haematobium, which had not been suspected previously.

Schistosoma haematobium and the nephrotic syndrome
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1980Two boys with nephrotic syndrome, membrano-proliferative glomerulo-nephritis and Schistosoma haematobium infection are described. Both showed remission of the nephrotic syndrome soon after the schistosomiasis was treated with niridazole. The significance of heavy proteinuria in schistosomiasis is discussed.

Is Schistosoma mansoni Replacing Schistosoma haematobium in the Fayoum?
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1993Schistosoma mansoni is progressively replacing S. haematobium along the Nile River in Egypt. This change has occurred in the past 15-20 years following construction of the Aswan High Dam in the 1960s. The cause is a shift in relative abundance of the snail vectors Biomphalaria alexandrina and Bulinus truncatus.
