Improving public health control of schistosomiasis with a modified WHO strategy: a model-based comparison study

This model-based comparison study compared the current WHO guideline-based strategies from 2012 to an alternative, adaptive decision making framework for control in heterogeneous environments, to estimate their predicted relative effectiveness and time to achievement of defined public health goals.

Five-Year Impact of Different Multi-Year MDA Strategies on Childhood S. mansoni–Associated Morbidity: A Combined Analysis from the Schistosomiasis Consortium for Operational Research and Evaluation Cohort Studies in the Lake Victoria Regions

The Schistosomiasis Consortium for Operational Research and Evaluation implemented multi-country, cluster randomized trials to compare effectiveness of community-wide and school-based treatment (SBT) regimens on prevalence and intensity of schistosomiasis. The authors conclude that programs using annual CWT are likely to achieve better overall S. mansoni morbidity control than those implementing only biennial SBT.

Ancient hybridization and adaptive introgression of an invadolysin gene in schistosome parasites

Introgression among parasite species has the potential to transfer traits of biomedical importance across species boundaries. Findings from this study suggest that S. bovis/S. haematobium hybridization occurs rarely, but demonstrate profound consequences of ancient introgression from a livestock parasite into the genome of S. haematobium, the most prevalent schistosome species infecting humans.
