Praziquantel efficacy against schistosomiasis mansoni in schoolchildren in north-west Ethiopia

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: The efficacy of praziquantel against schistosomiasis mansoni has been measured in 10–14 years old schoolchildren in a highly endemic area of north-west Ethiopia. The egg reduction rate was 97% and the cure rate was 94%, as assessed by a single Kato smear. No evidence for praziquantel resistance was detected.
