TL;DR: The comparison with previous results suggests that in the Nile Delta, fascioliasis is spreading from an original situation of sporadic human cases in well-known endemic foci for animal disease to an endemic distribution in humans, which may be characterized as a mesoendemic region that includes several hyperendemic areas for human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Northern Bolivian Altiplano: a region highly endemic for human fascioliasis.
Santiago Mas-Coma,René Angles,José-Guillermo Esteban,M. D. Bargues,P. Buchon,M. Franken,W. Strauss +6 more
TL;DR: The endemic region between Lake Titicaca and the valley of La Paz, Bolivia, at 3800–4100 m altitude, presents the highest prevalences and intensities recorded.
Journal ArticleDOI
High endemicity of human fascioliasis between Lake Titicaca and La Paz valley, Bolivia
TL;DR: It is concluded that fascioliasis is a very important human health problem in this region and a decrease of egg output counts with an increase of age was detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of very high prevalence and intensity of infection with Fasciola hepatica among Aymara children from the Northern Bolivian Altiplano
José-Guillermo Esteban,Angela Flores,Carlos Aguirre,Wilma Strauss,René Angles,Santiago Mas-Coma +5 more
TL;DR: The existence of high prevalences of F. hepatica among humans in the Northern Bolivian Altiplano is verified, but the need to expand the Southern boundaries of this high endemic zone to include the Southeastern region of Lake Titicaca is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A population-based coprological study of human fascioliasis in a hyperendemic area of the Bolivian Altiplano.
TL;DR: The results suggest the existence of highly hyperendemic subzones among the large human fascioliasis‐endemic zone of the Bolivian Northern Altiplano, and show that in anyperendemic zone adult subjects either maintain the parasites acquired when young or are newly infected as the consequence of inhabiting a zone of high infection risk.
