Evaluation of China-Zanzibar cooperation project of Schistosomiasis: no-stakeholder. 330 $aOffering an example for transnational cooperation and successful reduction of a neglected tropical disease, this volume shows how Chinese scientists and local physicians controlled schistosomiasis in Zanzibar. Over a four-year study, local medical specialists and the population of Zanzibar were taught how to diagnose the parasitosis caused by flukes (trematode worms) of the genus Schistosoma. Furthermore, methods to eliminate the disease and prevent new infections were established. The developed control system will avoid repeated increase of human schistosomiasis, which is still prevalent in the tropics and subtropics. Rural populations and poor communities lacking access to clean drinking water and adequate sanitation are most affected. This book is a blueprint of activities urgently needed to combat schistosomiasis in countries with low medical impact. The strategies outlined are particularly relevant to parasitologists and professionals in public health, physicians, medical personnel and also governmental, healthcare and pharmaceutical institutions. 410 0$aParasitology Research Monographs,$x2192-368X ;$v15 606 $aParasitology 606 $aMedicine, Preventive 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aTropical medicine 606 $aBiology$xTechnique 606 $aParasitology 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention 606 $aTropical Medicine 606 $aExperimental Organisms 606 $aEsquistosomiasi de Manson$2thub 606 $aAjuda sanitària$2thub 607 $aZanzíbar (Tanzània : Illa)$2thub 607 $aXina$2thub 607 $aÀfrica$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aParasitology. 615 0$aMedicine, Preventive. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aTropical medicine. 615 0$aBiology$xTechnique. 615 14$aParasitology. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aTropical Medicine. 615 24$aExperimental Organisms. 615 7$aEsquistosomiasi de Manson 615 7$aAjuda sanitària 676 $a616.963 702 $aMehlhorn$b Heinz 702 $aYang$b Kun 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910488714603321 996 $aSino-African cooperation for schistosomiasis control in Zanzibar$92818614 997 $aUNINA
