Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 6, Page 556-568, June 2025.Abstract Objectives Schistosomiasis and tegumentary leishmaniasis simultaneously affect areas in tropical and subtropical regions. Co‐infected individuals show a less‐than‐optimal response to treatment and increased regulatory immune responses. However, no study has determined where Schistosoma–Leishmania co‐infections are more likely to occur ...

Prevalence of Schistosoma heamatobium in Bladder Biopsies among Patients Suspected of Bladder Cancer
Sokoto Journal of Medical Laboratory Science, 2019 Schistosomes are parasitic blood flukes, which have a definitive mammalian host and fresh water snails as an intermediate invertebrate host. There are four human schistosomes which include Schistosoma haematobium, Schistosoma Mansoni, Schistosoma ...

Bayesian risk mapping and model-based estimation of Schistosoma haematobium-Schistosoma mansoni co-distribution in Côte d'Ivoire. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni are blood flukes that cause urogenital and intestinal schistosomiasis, respectively. In Côte d'Ivoire, both species are endemic and control efforts are being scaled up.

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 5, May 2025.ABSTRACT Schistosomiasis japonica is a parasitic disease that seriously endangers human health. Patients with advanced Schistosoma japonicum infection often suffer from cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Splenectomy has been widely used in the treatment of these patients. Previous studies have confirmed that S. japonicum infection is closely related to

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 13, April 3, 2025.Prostate and bladder cancers activate genes and pathways similar to those in the developmental stage by aggregating and analyzing current data. In this process, sex hormones and their receptors maybe a key role in causing and reversing the “cold” and “hot” immune tumor phenotypes, potentially enhancing the immune response.

Performance characteristics of diagnostic assays for schistosomiasis in Ontario, Canada
Therapeutic Advances in Infectious Disease, 2023 Introduction: Due to lower intensity of infection and greater intervals from last exposure, parasitologic detection methods for schistosomiasis are poorly sensitive in non-endemic areas, challenging accurate diagnosis. Methods: We evaluated parasitologic

Significant Progress in the Study of African Freshwater Snails Over the Past 260 Years
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.Globally, freshwater ecosystems are threatened, and studies estimate rapid degradation compared with terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Like most other tropical regions, Africa still has far to go regarding discovery and documentation. Using a systematic review process, we evaluated freshwater African snail studies.

Diagnosis of \u3cem\u3eSchistosoma mansoni\u3c/em\u3e without the Stool: Comparison of Three Diagnostic Tests to Detect \u3cem\u3eSchiostosoma mansoni\u3c/em\u3e Infection from Filtered Urine in Zambia [PDF]
, 2013 Diagnosis for intestinal Schistosoma mansoni lacks sensitivity and is arduous to conduct. The standard diagnostic tests, Kato-Katz (KK) and circulating cathodic antigen (CCA) both lack sensitivity and with KK, require obtaining, transporting, and ...
