  (iii) palpable spleen with light-to-moderate periportal thickening in 32 (4.3%) and (iv) palpable spleen with a normal liver on ultrasonography in 30 (4%). [elsevier.es]

• Plethora

  Our major findings demonstrated a plethora of chemokine secretion with significantly increased secretion of all chemokines analysed in the ACT group. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Respiratory Distress

  She also had tachycardia, respiratory distress, and tachypnoea due to the immense ascites. [idpjournal.biomedcentral.com]

• Abdominal Pain

  Here, we describe the case of a 31-year-old woman with lower abdominal pain who was diagnosed as presenting a fallopian tube tumor caused by Manson's schistosomiasis. The diagnosis was delayed because her symptoms were considered nonspecific. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  All patients reported non-specific abdominal symptoms, such as diarrhea (six patients), abdominal pain (seven patients), and blood in the stool (five patients), as well as weight loss (two patients). [idpjournal.biomedcentral.com]

  Long-term involvement of the colon produces abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea. Recurrent Salmonella bacteremia is related to parasitization of the schistosome gut by Salmonella. [meddean.luc.edu]

• Lower Abdominal Pain

  Here, we describe the case of a 31-year-old woman with lower abdominal pain who was diagnosed as presenting a fallopian tube tumor caused by Manson's schistosomiasis. The diagnosis was delayed because her symptoms were considered nonspecific. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Acute Abdomen

  Both patients presented with an apparently identical, relatively symptomatic clinical course with rapid evolution to an acute abdomen. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Epigastric Tenderness

  She had a highly distended abdomen, which showed epigastric tenderness and a detectable ascites during percussion (Fig. 7, left). [idpjournal.biomedcentral.com]

• Periorbital Edema

  Urticaria, periorbital edema, and rarely a purpuric eruption may occur four to six weeks later, shortly after oviposition by adult worms, probably as an expression of hypersensitivity to ova and their products. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hippocratic Facies

  He showed altered general state and Hippocratic facies. However, he was lucid and had an athletic constitution. He continued to vomit blood. He had a history of alcohol addiction but had never been treated for schistosomiasis. [idpjournal.biomedcentral.com]

• Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizure

  In case 2, a 22-year-old man presented with generalized tonic-clonic seizure. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Albuminuria

  Although it was not different among the groups, there was a significant correlation between albuminuria and MCP-1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Dyslipidemia

  CONCLUSION/SIGNIFICANCE: We confirm that human schistosomiasis causes dyslipidemia and report for the first time that certain changes in plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels depend on APOE gene polymorphism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Pseudomonas

  We describe a Brazilian patient with chronic schistosomiasis mansoni who developed recurrent pyogenic liver abscesses due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment-related side effects observed were transient and tolerable. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Course and prognosis The prognosis of hepatic schistosomiasis is good in the acute and hepatointestinal forms. The prognosis of the hepatosplenic forms depends on whether the liver disease is compensated or decompensated. [elsevier.es]

The mainstay of control is preventive chemotherapy with praziquantel. In Africa, an estimated 230 million people require preventive chemotherapy. In western Côte d'Ivoire, infections with Schistosoma mansoni are widespread. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Estimates show that at least 220.8 million people required preventive treatment in 2017. Preventive treatment, which should be repeated over a number of years, will reduce and prevent morbidity. [who.int]
