Dynamics of Schistosoma haematobium egg output and associated infection parameters following treatment with praziquantel in school-aged children [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Praziquantel is the drug of choice in preventive chemotherapy targeting schistosomiasis. Increasing large-scale administration of praziquantel requires monitoring of drug efficacy to detect early signs of development of resistance.Lohourignon Laurent K, Krauth, Stefanie J., Utzinger, Jürg, Coulibaly, Jean T., Jean T Coulibaly, Katarina Stete, Stefanie Knopp, Utzinger Jürg, N’Goran, Eliézer K., Stete, Katarina, Winfried V Kern, Lohourignon, Laurent K., Ivan Müller, Jürg Utzinger, Hattendorf Jan, Stete Katarina, Stefanie J Krauth, Coulibaly Jean T, Krauth Stefanie J, Müller Ivan, Laurent K Lohourignon, Müller, Ivan, N’Goran Eliézer K, Kern Winfried V, Hattendorf, Jan, N'Goran, Eliézer K., Knopp, Stefanie, Kern, Winfried V., Knopp Stefanie, Eliézer K N’Goran, Jan Hattendorf, N'goran EK, Knopp S, Hattendorf J, Kern WV, Utzinger J, Lohourignon LK, Krauth SJ, Müller I, Stete K, Coulibaly JT +40 morecore +1 more sourceScreening trematodes for novel intervention targets: a proteomic and immunological comparison of Schistosoma haematobium, Schistosoma bovis and Echinostoma caproni [PDF]

Emphasis is placed on school-aged children, but in high endemicity areas, preschool-aged children are also at risk, and hence might need ...N'Gbesso, Y. K., N'Goran, E. K., Coulibaly, J.

Infectious Agents and Cancer, 2020 Background Schistosoma haematobium, the helminth causing urogenital schistosomiasis, is a known bladder carcinogen. Despite the causal link between S. haematobium and bladder cancer, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. S.Evaristus C. Mbanefo, Chinwike Terry Agbo, Yuanlong Zhao, Olivia K.

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2023 Bulinus senegalensis and Bulinus umbilicatus, two sympatric freshwater snails found in temporal ponds in Senegal, were thought to be involved in the transmission of Schistosoma haematobium and/or Schistosoma curassoni.Bruno Senghor, Bonnie Webster, Tom Pennance, Mariama Sène, Souleymane Doucouré, Doudou Sow, Cheikh Sokhna +6 moredoaj +1 more sourcePraziquantel, mefloquine-praziquantel, and mefloquine-artesunate-praziquantel against Schistosoma haematobium : a randomized, exploratory, open-label trial [PDF]
, 2014 Treatment and morbidity control of schistosomiasis relies on a single drug, praziquantel. Hence, there is a pressing need to develop additional therapeutics against schistosomiasis.Silué, Kigbafori D., Monsan, N'Chou, Jennifer Keiser, Eliézer K.

, 2015 Reagent strip testing for microhaematuria has long been used for community diagnosis of Schistosoma haematobium. Sensitivities and specificities are reasonable, and hence, microhaematuria can serve as a proxy for S. haematobium infection.Eliézer K. N’Goran, Krauth, Stefanie J., Louise Y.
