Infection intensity-dependent accuracy of reagent strip for the diagnosis of schistosoma haematobium and estimation of treatment prevalence thresholds

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Carla M. Grolimund and collaborators from the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, Allschwil, Switzerland, University of Basel, Basel, Switzerland have published the research work: Infection intensity-dependent accuracy of reagent strip for the diagnosis of Schistosoma haematobium and estimation of treatment prevalence thresholds, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of July/18,/2020
  • what: The authors show that the reagent strip including trace results is almost perfectly sensitive for infections above 15 eggs of S. haematobium per 10 ml of urine and that a 10% observed prevalence by urine filtration corresponds to 17.6% observed . . .
