  • NTDscope

    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. New diagnostic tools that are portable, rapid, low-cost, and meet World Health Organization (WHO) sensitivity and specificit…

  • Exposure to bovine livestock and latent tuberculosis infection in children

    Open AccessMartine Augusta Flore Tsasse, Henry Dilonga Meriki et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), a neglected zoonotic disease, is endemic in cattle in many Sub-saharan African countries, yet its contribution to tuberculosis (TB) burden is understudied. Rapid urbanisation and increase in demand for animal proteins, including dairy products, increases the risk of spill over. This study compared the latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) risk in children, a proxy-measure for recent TB infection, in children living in hi…

  • Exposition of Intermediate Hosts of Schistosomes to Niclosamide (Bayluscide WP 70) Revealed Significant Variations in Mortality Rates

    Open AccessAlvine Christelle Kengne Fokam, Laurentine Sumo et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    (1) Background: Schistosomiasis remains a public health issue in Cameroon. Snail control using Niclosamide can prevent schistosome transmission. It is safe to determine lethal concentrations for the population. This study aimed at assessing the toxicity of Niclosamide on different developmental stages of snail populations; (2) Methods: Snails were collected, identified, and reared in the laboratory. Egg masses and adult snails were exposed to Nic…

  • Assessing core capacities for addressing public health emergencies of international concern at designated points of entry in cameroon during the Covid-19 Pandemic

    Open AccessViviane Fossouo Ndoungué, Arouna Njayou Ngapagna et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    All POEs assessed did not meet IHR standards and need significant improvement to fulfill the IHR requirements. Unstructured communication channels between stakeholders make the implementation of IHR challenging. A coordination mechanism, with clear functions and structure, is necessary for well-coordinated response efforts to health emergencies at POEs. This assessment will serve as a baseline to inform planning and IHR implementation at designat…

  • 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
