A systematic review of<i>Schistosoma intercalatum</i>: an obscure causative agent of human schistosomiasis

2024-08-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Human schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma intercalatum is poorly understood compared to other species of public health importance, such as S. haematobium, S. mansoni , and S. japonicum . The restricted distribution of S. intercalatum in Africa, its perceived low virulence, and poor understanding of its pathological consequences are possible reasons for this neglect. However, schistosomiasis a...
