Narcis B. Kabatereine,Simon Brooker,Artemis Koukounari,Francis Kazibwe,Edridah M. Tukahebwa,Fiona M. Fleming,Yaobi Zhang,Joanne P. Webster,J. Russell Stothard,Alan Fenwick +9 more
TL;DR: Anthelmintic treatment delivered as part of a national helminth control programme can decrease infection and morbidity among schoolchildren and improve haemoglobin concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergistic associations between hookworm and other helminth species in a rural community in Brazil.
Fiona M. Fleming,Simon Brooker,Stefan M. Geiger,Stefan M. Geiger,Iramaya Rodrigues Caldas,Rodrigo Correa-Oliveira,Peter J. Hotez,Jeffrey M. Bethony,Jeffrey M. Bethony +8 more
TL;DR: To identify possible synergistic associations of hookworm and other helminths, a large number of experiments have been conducted on hookworm infestation at different temperatures and with different types of parasites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrasting patterns in the small-scale heterogeneity of human helminth infections in urban and rural environments in Brazil
Simon Brooker,Neal Alexander,Neal Alexander,Stefan M. Geiger,Stefan M. Geiger,Rana Moyeed,Julian Stander,Fiona M. Fleming,Peter J. Hotez,Rodrigo Correa-Oliveira,Jeffrey M. Bethony,Jeffrey M. Bethony +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the small-scale (within and between-household) heterogeneity of helminth infection in an area of Minas Gerais State, Brazil, with rural and urban sectors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost and cost-effectiveness of nationwide school-based helminth control in Uganda: intra-country variation and effects of scaling-up.
TL;DR: Analysis indicated that estimates of both cost and cost-effectiveness differ markedly with the total number of children who received treatment, indicating economies of scale, and highlights the potential bias in transferring data across settings without understanding the nature of observed variations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age patterns in undernutrition and helminth infection in a rural area of Brazil: associations with ascariasis and hookworm.
Anne Jardim-Botelho,Anne Jardim-Botelho,Simon Brooker,Stefan M. Geiger,Stefan M. Geiger,Fiona M. Fleming,Aline Cristine Souza Lopes,David Diemert,Rodrigo Correa-Oliveira,Jeffrey M. Bethony,Jeffrey M. Bethony +10 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the nutritional status of individuals from a rural area of Brazil, and associations with helminth infections in an age‐stratified sample, finds no significant differences between urban and rural areas.
