Stool‐Test Positivity Proportion and Five‐Year Trend of Intestinal Parasitic Infections Among Symptomatic Students Attending Debre Tabor University Student Clinic, Northwest Ethiopia: A Retrospective Cross‐Sectional Study (2021–2025)

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) remain a significant public health challenge in Ethiopia, particularly among university students living in communal settings. However, limited data exist on the trends of these infections among university students.

Prevalence of Malnutrition and Associated Factors Among School Children in Hawella Tula Rural District, Hawassa, Sidama Regional State, Ethiopia: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Malnutrition, including stunting, wasting, and underweight, remains a major public health problem among school‐age children in low‐resource settings. In Hawella Tula, a sub‐city of Hawassa, evidence on the magnitude and determinants of malnutrition is limited and not sufficiently context‐specific. This gap constrains the development

Predisposition toTrichuris trichiurainfection in humans [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1987
SUMMARYThe study examines the distribution ofTrichuris trichiurainfection in a village community in St Lucia, West Indies. The infection intensity of the same age-stratified population was assessed (by drug expelled worm burden and faecal egg count) at the initiation of the study, and after 17 months of reinfection following treatment.

Trichuriasis in Human Patients from Côte d’Ivoire Caused by Novel Trichuris incognita Species with Low Sensitivity to Albendazole/Ivermectin Combination Treatment

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Albendazole/ivermectin combination therapy is a promising alternative to benzimidazole monotherapy alone for Trichuris trichiura control. We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to genetically characterize Trichuris spp. populations in patient samples from Côte

Differentiation of Trichuris species using a morphometric approach

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019
Trichuris trichiura is a nematode considered as the whipworm present in humans and primates. The systematics of the genus Trichuris is complex. Morphological studies of Trichuris isolated from primates and humans conclude that the species infecting these

Selective Packaging of miR‐22 and miR‐29 Orthologues into Extracellular Vesicles of the Porcine Whipworm Trichuris Suis

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Helminths modulate host immunity, and in this respect, the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis has been explored clinically as an immunotherapy for inflammatory diseases. T. suis secretes a complex mixture of excretory/secretory products (ESP), including extracellular vesicles (EVs), nanosized membranous particles with bioactive cargoes of lipids,

Synthesis and Antiparasitic Activities of New Organometallic Derivatives of the Benzimidazole Anthelmintic Drugs

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Organometallic derivatization of existing drugs is a common strategy to look for new drug candidates. This work describes the derivatization of the benzimidazole anthelmintic scaffold, from the synthesis of the organometallic derivatives to the evaluation of their biological properties. It highlights a broad range of antiparasitic activities and leaves

Different gut microbial communities correlate with efficacy of albendazole-ivermectin against soil-transmitted helminthiases

Nature Communications, 2022
Little is known about the cause of treatment failure of soil-transmitted helminth infections. Here, the authors show that pre-treatment gut microbial community composition enables predicting treatment outcome for Trichuris trichiura and hookworm ...

Caecal Epithelium‐Derived Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin is not Required for Protective Immunity Against Whipworm

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 7, July 2026.
Immunity to Trichuris muris infection is unimpacted by epithelial knockout of TSLP expression. Imaging of transcription in the caecum reveals Tslp transcription throughout infection in EpCAM‐, Foxl1‐, Ccl24‐ lamina propria‐resident cells, contributing during the expulsion phase of infection. ABSTRACT Recent research examining classical type two alarmin
