TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the factors influencing the transmission of onchocerciasis and found that the transmission rate of the disease is positively associated with the number of infected individuals.

TL;DR: Early migration and pathogenicity of Angiostrongylus cantonensis in laboratory rats was studied in this article, where the authors showed that the early migration of the species is a sign of early infection.

TL;DR: Studies on arboviruses and bats (Chiroptera) in East Africa are studied in order to better understand the role of these animals in the food web.

TL;DR: The calcified guinea worm has been studied in clinical, radiological and pathological study for the first time in a large-scale study of its role in infectious disease.
Abstract: (1968). Calcified guinea worm: clinical, radiological and pathological study. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 62, No. 4, pp. 399-406.
TL;DR: In this article, Metronidazole in chronic intestinal amoebiasis was studied and it was shown that it is effective in the treatment of the disease and not just in the control of the infection.
Abstract: (1968). Metronidazole in chronic intestinal amoebiasis. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 62, No. 2, pp. 139-142.
TL;DR: In this paper, observations on the infection of bulinid snails with Schistosoma mattheei are presented. But the authors do not discuss the infection with the same species of slugs.
Abstract: (1968). Observations on the infection of bulinid snails with Schistosoma mattheei. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 62, No. 3, pp. 382-392.
TL;DR: The pathology of trypanosoma simiae infection in pigs was described in this article, where it was shown that the infection can cause liver failure in pigs, but not in humans.
Abstract: (1968). The pathology of Trypanosoma simiae infection in pigs. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 62, No. 2, pp. 188-192.
TL;DR: The chemotherapy of rodent malaria was studied in this paper, where the authors proposed a new formulation for rodent malaria and showed that the chemotherapy is effective in reducing the number of malaria cases.
Abstract: (1968). The chemotherapy of rodent malaria, I. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 62, No. 2, pp. 238-245.
