transmission of bilharziasis. 2. production of cercariae.while a knowledge of cercarial infection rates is essential to an understanding of the dynamics of bilharziasis transmission, rather little attention has been paid to methods of determining these rates. the author considers that the most valuable information is likely to be obtained if studies of infectivity are carried out hand in hand with studies of snail population density and structure. different methods employed in examining snail populations for infection are discussed, together with the ...19655294587
daily and weekly injections of sodium antimony dimercaptosuccinate (twsb) in the treatment of schistosoma haematobium infection: with particular reference to the intensity of infection.with a view to developing a schedule for the ambulatory treatment of schistosoma haematobium infection with sodium antimony dimercaptosuccinate (twsb), a trial was conducted in tanzania of the comparative effectiveness of daily and weekly injections of twsb in schoolchildren. in-patients received five daily injections of 6 mg/kg, and out-patients the same total amount in five weekly injections.it was found that the two schedules were equally effective, and that, while the cure rate varied invers ...19655295000
host-parasite relationship of bulinus truncatus and schistosoma haematobium in iran. 1. effect of the age of b. truncatus on the development of s. haematobium.this paper is the first of a series of four on various aspects of the interaction between bulinus truncatus and the bilharziasis parasite schistosoma haematobium. it describes laboratory studies conducted to determine the effect of the age of b. truncatus on the development of s. haematobium. the results indicated (1) that the young snails could be infected even if they were one day old; (2) that the infection rates were higher in the snails of two to five weeks of age than in those of one week; ...19665295557
host-parasite relationship of bulinus truncatus and schistosoma haematobium in iran. 2. effect of exposure dosage of miracidia on the biology of the snail host and the development of the parasites.laboratory experiments were carried out to study the development of bulinus truncatus and the larval stages of schistosoma haematobium after the snails had been exposed to various numbers of miracidia. the results showed: (1) that in the cercarial-incubation period the growth and survival rate of snails was not influenced by the development of the larval stages of s. haematobium, but that in the cercaria-shedding period the life-span of the infected snails was shorter than that of the non-infect ...19665295558
host-parasite relationship of bulinus truncatus and schistosoma haematobium in iran. 3. effect of water temperature on the ability of miracidia to infect snails.laboratory studies were made in iran to test the effect of water temperature on the ability of the miracidia of s. haematobium to penetrate b. truncatus. snails three to four weeks old were exposed to two miracidia each for two hours at nine water temperatures ranging from 10 degrees c to 38 degrees c. after exposure, all the snails were kept in aquaria at room temperature. the cercaria-positive rates of these nine groups of snails showed that the optimum exposure temperature was in the range 20 ...19665295559
host-parasite relationship of bulinus truncatus and schistosoma haematobium in iran. 4. effect of month of infection on cercarial-incubation periods of s. haematobium and s. bovis.studies were conducted each month for one year to determine the cercarial-incubation periods of schistosoma haematobium and schistosoma bovis in bulinus truncatus for different months of infection. the snails were kept in outdoor aquaria in order to simulate the natural temperature conditions in the endemic bilharziasis areas of iran.the results showed that the cercarial-incubation periods of these two schistosome species varied with the environmental water temperature. snails exposed in august ...19665295560
the susceptibility of rodents to schistosome infection, with special reference to schistosoma haematobium.in this investigation the susceptibility of several species of rodents-praomys (mastomys) natalensis, saccostomus campestris, arvicanthus niloticus, aethomys chrysophilus, tatera brantsi and the white mouse (saimr 200 strain)-to schistosoma haematobium was determined and the pathology studied. from the results it is clear that these rodents are susceptible to infection with schistosoma haematobium. for various reasons, notably adaptability to laboratory conditions, the most suitable as laborator ...19665297005
the epidemiology of schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni infections in the egypt-49 project area. 1. sampling techniques and procedures for measuring the prevalence of bilharziasis.a survey of the prevalence of bilharziasis has been made in the egypt-49 project area, part of the beheira province of egypt with an area of 422 km(2) and a population of nearly 250 000 in 552 villages. the area has been classified into four divisions-rural (agricultural), urban (industrial), reclamation (resettlement) and control, and subdivided into 23 sections bounded by irrigation canals or drains. between april 1962 and march 1963, 11 944 individuals from 2573 households in 96 villages were ...19665297626
the epidemiology of schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni infections in the egypt-49 project area. 2. prevalence of bilharziasis in relation to personal attributes and habits.the over-all uncorrected prevalence rates of bilharziasis determined in this survey were-control division, 59.5%; rural and reclamation divisions, 35.9%; urban division, 21.0%. there are significant differences in rates of infection between sections within a division, between adjacent villages and even between different parts of one village. prevalence increases rapidly with age up to about the age of 14 years, declines somewhat up to the age of 40 years and then remains fairly constant at a rat ...19665297627
the epidemiology of schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni infections in the egypt-49 project area. 3. prevalence of bilharziasis in relation to certain environmental factors.the influence of the size and location of communities in relation to the different types of watercourse, the availability of a protected water supply, types of housing and the presence of other sanitary facilities on the prevalence of bilharziasis in the egypt-49 project area has been studied. there is no direct relationship between the size of village and the prevalence of bilharziasis. main drains and distributaries are potent sources of infection and, in terms of the total population exposed, ...19665297628
the epidemiology of schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni infections in the egypt-49 project area. 4. measurement of the incidence of bilharziasis.the measurement of incidence, or the rate at which people become positive, for schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni was carried out in four parts of the egypt-49 project area near alexandria. for s. haematobium, rates as high as 22.8% per year were found for children 0-6 years old in a rural area; in the same area, the incidence of s. mansoni was 8.5% per year. the true incidence is underestimated because many cases become negative spontaneously. this loss rate of s. haematobium cases is 0.476 ...19665297629
the effect of area-wide snail control on the endemicity of bilharziasis in egypt.molluscicides applied to two areas near alexandria had a significant effect in reducing both incidence and prevalence of schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni infections. no decrease in either measure of endemicity was found in an adjacent untreated area. bayluscide and sodium pentachlorophenate were equally effective in interrupting the transmission of s. haematobium, but bayluscide was more effective against s. mansoni, probably because of the difficulty of applying sodium pentachlorophenate ...19665297632
assessment of severity of disease caused by schistosoma haematobium and s. mansoni in the egypt-49 project area.the impact of bilharziasis on a community has been evaluated in terms of the stages and grades of severity of the disease; egg counts in faeces and urine were correlated with the clinical severity. at the time this study was carried out, the over-all prevalence of s. haematobium infection was 37.6%, that of s. mansoni infection 29.8% and that of mixed infections 17.1%.of 579 people examined, 292 (58.2%) were excreting schistosome eggs. all except one person were classified as stage iii-asymptoma ...19665297634
field trials of ambilhar in the treatment of urinary bilharziasis in schoolchildren.the deficiencies of the drugs used for the treatment of bilharziasis have limited attempts at control of the disease by chemotherapy. the present paper records a series of field trials with a new, orally administered, non-metallic schistosomicide, ambilhar, in schoolchildren in an area of endemic urinary bilharziasis in tanzania. the results indicate that the compound represents an important advance in the chemotherapy of schistosoma haematobium infections. high cure rates and marked reduction o ...19665298034
