Retrospective analysis of malaria surveillance data in the former Southern Nations, Nationalities, and peoples’ region, Ethiopia (2017–2021)
Malaria remains a major public health concern in many low-income nations, including Ethiopia. Monitoring malaria trends through surveillance data is critical for informing control efforts and guiding stakeholders. As a result, we analyzed the five-year trend of malaria morbidity and mortality, distribution of malaria cases by Plasmodium species, demographic characteristics, and geographic areas, and identified potential gaps in malaria control ef…
Schistosoma mansoni and soil-transmitted helminthic infections and associated factors among pregnant women in Jimma Town, Southwest Ethiopia
This study sheds light on the burden of maternal STH and S. mansoni infections in Jimma Town. A quarter of the pregnant women were infected with STHs and S. mansoni. It is recommended that pregnant women in the area avoid washing clothes in the river to reduce the risk of S. mansoni infection. Screening for intestinal parasitic infections should be conducted for pregnant women living in endemic areas during their ANC follow-up
Schistosoma mansoni infection and risk factors among the fishermen of Lake Hawassa, southern Ethiopia
Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical parasitic disease caused by different species of genus Schistosoma . Schistosoma mansoni causes a severe intestinal parasitic infection of high public and medical importance in Ethiopia. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of, and risk factors for, S. mansoni infection among the fishermen of Lake Hawassa, southern Ethiopia, using a cross-sectional study design. A total of 243 fishermen were selecte…
A community-based cross-sectional study of the epidemiology of onchocerciasis in unmapped villages for community directed treatment with ivermectin in Jimma Zone, southwestern Ethiopia
There was moderate prevalence of onchocercal infection and onchocercial skin diseases (OSD) in the study area. Result of this study may suggest that the endemicity level of onchocerciasis in the study area was mesoendemic. Hence, intervention using ivermectin treatment should be implemented to reduce the burden of onchocerciasis. Since the majorities of the population had poor knowledge, attitude and practice towards onchocerciasis, inclusion of …
