2023-11-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Schistosomiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease that is estimated to affect almost 300 million people worldwide. As one of the three major human parasites, <italic>Schistosoma japonicum</italic> is endemic in Southeast Asia, including China, Philippines and Indonesia. Transmission relies only on one snail host <italic>Oncomelania hupensis</italic> (Gastropoda: Pomatiopsidae)...
