The little we know about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of praziquantel (racemate and R-enantiomer) [PDF]
Praziquantel has been the mainstay of schistosomiasis control since 1984 and widely distributed since 2006 through ‘preventive chemotherapy' programmes to school-aged children or at-risk populations.

Intestinal Obstruction in Murine Schistosomiasis Japonica
During the course of a study of hepatosplenic schistosomiasis, intestinal obstruction was observed incidentally in 80% of mice infected for 40 weeks with 1 worm pair of a Formosan strain of Schistosoma japonicum and in 60% of mice similarly infected with a Philippine strain. The cause of the obstruction was a localized thickening of the intestinal wall

Schistosomiasis control in China: the impact of a 10-year World Bank Loan Project (1992-2001)
China has been carrying out large-scale schistosomiasis control since the mid-1950s, but in the early 1990s, schistosomiasis was still endemic in eight provinces. A World Bank Loan Project enabled further significant progress to be made during the period
