Ash A, et al. – Researchers here aimed to assess the impact of a triple dose albendazole regime in controlling Taenia solium and soil–transmitted helminths (STHs) in a northern Lao PDR village. They used microscopy and molecular techniques to monitor levels of parasitism. Findings revealed a significant reduction in the level of taeniasis and STH’s. As per observations, it seems that a multifaceted approach could lead to sustained STH control.
