|
| Third, it is important to juxtapose these observations with trends observed over the same period, but with an emphasis on soil-transmitted helminthiasis and schistosomiasis. |
|
| Other eggs lodge in the liver and other tissues, eliciting immune responses and causing the abdominal pain, fever, and malaise that mark schistosomiasis. |
