Soil-Transmitted Helminthes (STHs) and Asymptomatic Bacteriuria Amongst Preschool Children in the Bosomtwe District of Ghana. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int
Soil‐transmitted helminths (STHs) and urinary tract infections (UTIs) pose major public health challenges, especially in regions with poor healthcare access, inadequate sanitation, and limited clean water supply. When these two conditions recur, they can cause stunted growth in children between 24 and 59 months of age, a vital phase for physical ...

Tackling Worm Infestations with a Multifactorial Approach in the 21st century: An Indian Perspective [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020
Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH) or geohelminths are an important cause of morbidity worldwide. A large proportion of the infection burden occurs in India, including STH infections due to roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (Trichuris trichura)
