Ultrasound-Based Prevalence of Cystic Echinococcosis in the Samarkand Region of Uzbekistan: Results from a Field Survey
We present findings from a cross-sectional, ultrasound-based survey evaluating the prevalence of human CE in the Samarkand region, Uzbekistan. The survey was conducted between September and October 2019 in the Payariq district, Samarkand. Study villages were selected based on sheep breeding and reported human CE. Residents aged 5-90 years were invited to receive a free abdominal ultrasound examination. The WHO Informal Working Group on Echinococcosis classification was used for cyst staging. Information regarding CE diagnosis and treatment was collected. Of 2,057 screened subjects, 498 (24.2%) were male. Twelve (0.58%) had...

HCEs-Net: Hepatic cystic echinococcosis classification ensemble model based on tree-structured Parzen estimator and snap-shot approach
CONCLUSION: The stacking model of three ConvNeXt-T sub-models shows comparable or superior performance to the other methods, including VGG19, ResNet18 and ViT-Base. It has the potential to enhance clinical diagnosis for HCE.PMID:37183479 | DOI:10.1002/mp.16444

Subcutaneous infection mouse model could be applied into real time monitoring the efficacy of anti-cystic echinococcosis drug in vivo
In this study, a CE mouse model was established by subcutaneous (sc) injection of protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus sensu stricto (E.granulosus s.s.) and used to assess the efficiency and efficacy of prospective anti-CE drugs. Compared to the ip infection CE mice model, the lesion volume of sc infection protoscoleces of E.granulosus s.s. (EgPSCs) could be measured by vernier caliper at week 6 post-infection. In contrast, the lesion volume of ip infection CE mice model was detected by ultrasound-assisted diagnosis at week 16 post-infection. Oral administration of albendazole (ABZ) could reduce cystic weight by 32.17%...
