    Open AccessMaría Díaz de León Derby, Zaina L Moussa et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Accurate diagnostics are essential for disease control and elimination efforts. However, access to diagnostics for neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) is hindered by limited healthcare infrastructure in many NTD-endemic regions, as well as by reliance on time- and labor-intensive diagnostic methods, such as smear microscopy.

This study compared the latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) risk in children, a proxy-measure for recent TB infection, in children living in hi…

  • Community-based door to door census of suspected people living with epilepsy

    Open AccessJoseph Kamgno, Jules Brice Tchatchueng‐Mbougua et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2020

    The results of this study suggest that CDDs, who are present in about 200,000 communities in 31 Sub Saharan African countries where onchocerciasis is endemic, can be successfully used to assess epilepsy prevalence, and therefore map epilepsy in many African countries

  • High snakebite underreporting rate in the Centre Region of Cameroon

    Open AccessDésiré Tchoffo, Joseph Kamgno et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Snakebite is an endemic condition in the Centre Region of Cameroon. Because of the high rate of non-reporting of cases, the collection of information from the registers of the health facilities only appears not enough to assess the real importance of envenomation in this Region
