Water, sanitation, and hygiene in schistosomiasis control
Schistosomiasis is a water-based disease transmitted through contact with freshwater contaminated by cercariae from infected snails. Transmission is shaped by access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services, human behaviour, and environmental factors. While several systematic reviews have examined WASH-schistosomiasis links, a synthesis of emerging evidence and identification of knowledge gaps across the transmission pathways is needed. …
Imported female genital schistosomiasis
Female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) is one of the most neglected tropical diseases in the world, affecting over 56 million women and girls in Africa alone. It is a sequala of Schistosoma haematobium infection and is characterised by lesions on the cervix and other reproductive structures. Schistosomiasis and FGS are prevalent in women living in, migrating from, or traveling to Schistosoma haematobium-endemic countries. FGS is associated with sig…
Irrigation and infection
Schistosomiasis has been deemed “the most important water‐based disease from a global public‐health perspective” in modern populations. To better understand the burden of schistosomiasis in ancient populations, we conducted immunologic examinations of desiccated tissue samples from two ancient Nubian populations, Wadi Halfa ( N = 46) and Kulubnarti ( N = 191). Saqia irrigated agriculture increases the available habitat for the aquatic vector snai…
