Early Cancer Detection: What's Going on and What's Next

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Multicancer early detection (MCED) platforms have emerged as a promising strategy for the safe and effective early detection of multiple cancer types, with the potential to reduce metastatic burden and improve clinical outcomes, particularly for aggressive malignancies that lack effective population‐level screening.

Evidences That Host Genetic Background More Than the Environment Shapes the Microbiota of the Snail Bulinus truncatus, an Intermediate Host of Schistosoma Species

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbiota have emerged as fundamental regulators of host physiology, shaping both ecological interactions and evolutionary trajectories. Yet, the determinants of microbiota diversity and structure in wild populations—particularly the respective roles of host genetics and environmental context—are still poorly understood.

Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that

Infection and co-infection with helminths and Plasmodium among school children in Côte d'Ivoire : results from a National Cross-Sectional Survey [PDF]

, 2014
Helminth infection and malaria remain major causes of ill-health in the tropics and subtropics. There are several shared risk factors (e.g., poverty), and hence, helminth infection and malaria overlap geographically and temporally.

Evaluation of Midwife‐Led Colposcopy for Female Genital Schistosomiasis Screening at Primary Level of Care in Rural Madagascar: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 49-57, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Female genital schistosomiasis is a condition with a complex diagnosis and severe consequences such as infertility. In the absence of a reliable biomarker, in endemic settings the World Health Organization recommends colposcopy as a diagnostic tool for the detection of female genital schistosomiasis lesions.

Colon polyps in Schistosoma haematobium schistosomiasis [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998
(McCully et al. 1976 loc. cit.). In Egypt there are distinct areas where either S. mansoni or S. haematobium is predominant (HF el Sayed et al. 1995 Am J Trop Med Hyg 52: 194-198). In Angola, in the northern part of the country where the patient comes from, S. haematobium predominates. In Brazil, schistosomiasis is due to S.
