| dc.description.abstract | Abstract: Background: Schistosomiasis is a debilitating disease, infects millions of people in tropical and subtropical regions. Objectives: This study assessed the situation of the urinary schistosomiasis among the people of the Alsyal village, River Nile State, Sudan. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in 2016, in the Alsyal village, and 220 samples of urine were collected and processed using the centrifugation/sedimentation technique. Results: The overall prevalence and intensity of the disease among the pupils studied were 4.1% and 95.9 eggs/10ml urine, respectively. The prevalence of infection among male pupils was 77.8%, and for females was 22.2%, while the intensity among males was 64.9eggs/10ml and for females was 35.1 eggs/10ml urine. The highest infection rate (71.4%) was reported among the 12- 24 years age group, while the infection was (14.3%) among less than 12 years and more than 24 years age group. Conclusion: Findings show the need for an integrated control program against urinary schistosomiasis including the treatment of all infected the people and the implementation of a health education program. | |
| dc.description.abstract | The current COVID-19 pandemic challenges not only the lack of awareness of the disease, but also the rapid diagnosis, the prediction of severe early disease, the clinical characterization of mortality and severity of patients, and the effective management that affects the global scale, resulting in low capacities of healthcare systems, the resilience of systems and global economics. Therefore, early differential diagnosis and prediction of SARS-COV-2 infection severity are needed. CRP and NLR are diagnostic marker commonly used, most available, effective, and economically used primarily to evaluate the ongoing systemic inflammatory response. | |
