Genomic and morphological characterization of <i>Trichuris incognita</i> , a Human-Infecting <i>Trichuris</i> species

2024-06-13

Abstract excerpt

Trichuriasis is a neglected tropical disease that affects as many as 500 million individuals and can cause significant morbidity. For decades, it was thought to be caused by one species of whipworm, Trichuris trichiura . Significant differences in response rates to the best available anthelmintic treatment — a combination of albendazole and ivermectin — for trichuriasis exist across clinical trial reports yet the...
