11Development of a health education intervention strategy using an implementation research method to control taeniasis and cysticercosis in Burkina Faso显示文摘Background:Taeniasis and cysticercosis are two diseases caused by Taenia solium,a parasite transmitted between humans and pigs,leading to considerable economic loss and disabilities.Transmission of the parasite is linked to environmental and behavioural factors such as inadequate sanitation and hygiene,poor pig management,and consumption of infected pork.This study used implementation research method to design a health education intervention strategy for reducing T.solium infections in Burkina Faso,a country endemic for the parasite.Methods:Eighteen group discussions were conducted with 8-18 participants each in three villages.In addition,structured interviews were conducted among 4777 participants and 2244 pig owners,who were selected through cluster random sampling in 60 villages of three provinces of Burkina Faso.Both approaches assessed knowledge and practices related to T.solium.The information obtained was used to develop a community-adapted health education intervention strategy to control taeniasis and cysticercosis in Burkina Faso.Results:The group discussions revealed that participants had a poor quality of life due to the diseases as well as inadequate access to latrines,safe water,and healthcare services.In addition,it was found that pig production was an important economic activity,especially for women.Furthermore,financial and knowledge constraints were important limitations to improved pig management and latrine construction.The survey data also showed that open defecation and drinking unboiled water were common behaviours,enhanced by a lack of knowledge regarding the transmission of the parasite,perceived financial barriers to the implementation of control measures,lack of public sensitization,as well as a lack of self-efficacy towards control of the parasite.Nevertheless,the perceived financial benefits of controlling porcine cysticercosis could be emphasized by an education program that discourages open defecation and encourages drinking safe water.The final intervention strategy included a Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation(PHAST)approach,as well as a 52-min film and an accompanying comic booklet.Conclusions:The main problem in the study communities regarding the transmission of T.solium cysticercosis is the random disposal of human faeces,which can be contaminated with parasite eggs.Prevention of open defecation requires the building of latrines,which can be quite problematic in economically challenged settings.Providing the community with the skills to construct durable latrines using low-cost locally available materials would likely help to resolve this problem.Further studies are required to implement and evaluate the T.solium control strategy developed in this study.Helena Ngowi Ivan Ozbolt Athanase Millogo Veronique Dermauw Telesphore Some Paul Spicer Lori L.Jervis Rasmane Ganaba Sarah Gabriel Pierre Dorny Helene Carabin 2017Infectious Diseases of Poverty2017,6,1:1

17Association between Taenia solium infection and HIV/AIDS in northern Tanzania: a matched cross sectional-study显示文摘Background:The frequency of Taenia solium,a zoonotic helminth,is increasing in many countries of sub-Saharan Africa,where the prevalence of the human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)is also high.However,little is known about how these two infections interact.The aim of this study was to compare the proportion of HIV positive(+)and negative(−)individuals who are infected with Taenia solium(TSOL)and who present with clinical and neurological manifestations of cysticercosis(CC).Methods:In northern Tanzania,170 HIV+individuals and 170 HIV–controls matched for gender,age and village of origin were recruited.HIV staging and serological tests for TSOL antibodies(Ab)and antigen(Ag)were performed.Neurocysticercosis(NCC)was determined by computed tomography(CT)using standard diagnostic criteria.Neurological manifestations were confirmed by a standard neurological examination.In addition,demographic,clinical and neuroimaging data were collected.Further,CD4^(+)cell counts as well as information on highly active antiretroviral treatment(HAART)were noted.Results:No significant differences between HIV+and HIV–individuals regarding the sero-prevalence of taeniosis-Ab(0.6%vs 1.2%),CC-Ab(2.4%vs 2.4%)and CC-Ag(0.6%vs 0.0%)were detected.A total of six NCC cases(3 HIV+and 3 HIV–)were detected in the group of matched participants.Two individuals(1 HIV+and 1 HIV–)presented with headaches as the main symptom for NCC,and four with asymptomatic NCC.Among the HIV+group,TSOL was not associated with CD4+cell counts,HAART duration or HIV stage.Conclusions:This study found lower prevalence of taeniosis,CC and NCC than had been reported in the region to date.This low level of infection may have resulted in an inability to find cross-sectional associations between HIV status and TSOL infection or NCC.Larger sample sizes will be required in future studies conducted in that area to conclude if HIV influences the way NCC manifests itself.Veronika Schmidt Christian Kositz Karl-Heinz Herbinger Hélène Carabin Bernard Ngowi Ezra Naman Patricia P.Wilkins John Noh William Matuja Andrea Sylvia Winkler 2016Infectious Diseases of Poverty2016,5,1:1
