Background: Schistosomiasis is the most prevalent waterborne parasitic diseases in rural communities and urban populations which depend on streams and rivers for domestic and agricultural purposes. Provision of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) resources has been advocated a strategy for sustainable control of soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH). Studies on Schistosoma haematobium amongst school children in osogbo metropolis in Osun state, Nigeria was carried out to determine the prevalence of schistosomiasis in school age children and the status of WASH resources. Method: A total of 216 (104 males and 112 females) urine was collected in a collection tube. Schistosoma haematobium infection was detected by microscopic examination of schistosome egg in the urine. A structured survey form (Questionnaire) was administered to each participants to inquiry about their demographic characteristics, sanitation and hygiene practices (WASH activity) both at home and in the school and also their knowledge about schistosomiasis using WHO standard questionnaire. The samples was centrifuged and kept in the fridge at 40C until further analysis. 50 samples were further analyzed for DNA extraction using the Genomic DNA Extraction kits by NIMR BIOTECH (Research for national Health), extracted/ eluted DNA was stored at -20oC in the freezer. The supposed DNAs obtained were subjected to Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using the conventional method to detect the scistosome DNA. Result: But none of the 50 samples pool tested was positive to any of the target DNA gel electrophorensis. This study observed no detectable DNA in the urine samples. Conclusion: It is hence suggested that there was little risk of prevalence of schistosomiasis infection in Osogbo during this study period. However, further investigations, as well as, continual prevalence investigation are recommended.
背景:血吸虫病是农村社区和城市人口中最普遍的水传播寄生虫病,这些社区和城市人口的生活和农业目的依赖于溪流和河流。提供水、环境卫生和个人卫生(WASH)资源是一项可持续控制土壤传播蠕虫病(STH)的战略。对尼日利亚奥松州奥索博市学龄儿童中的血血吸虫病进行了研究,以确定学龄儿童中血吸虫病的流行情况和讲卫生资源的状况。方法:采用尿管收集216例(男104例,女112例)尿液。尿中血吸虫卵镜检发现血血吸虫感染。向每位参与者发放了一份结构化调查表(问卷),以使用世卫组织标准问卷询问他们的人口特征、家庭和学校的环境卫生和个人卫生习惯(WASH活动)以及他们对血吸虫病的了解情况。样品被离心并保存在40摄氏度的冰箱里,等待进一步的分析。使用NIMR BIOTECH (Research for national Health)的基因组DNA提取试剂盒对50份样本进行进一步分析提取DNA,提取/洗脱的DNA在-20℃冷冻保存。将得到的假定DNA进行聚合酶链反应(PCR),采用常规方法检测裂体DNA。结果:50份样本均无靶DNA凝胶电泳阳性。本研究未在尿液样本中发现可检测到的DNA。结论:本研究期间,奥索博省血吸虫病流行风险较小。但是,建议进行进一步的调查以及持续的流行率调查。

Background: COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the challenges for vulnerable adolescents, who, even before the COVID-19 pandemic, had reproductive health problems. There are limited studies on the reproductive health and quality of life of female adolescents living in slums during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional study utilizing a mixed-method approach was done to explore this vulnerability. Methodology: We investigated this study through a mixed-method approach on female adolescents aged 15-19 years and service providers residing in the Bauniabadh and the Ta block Jhil Par slums. The quantitative method included a household survey of adolescents (n=144) through a semi-structured pre-tested questionnaire. The qualitative approach included interviews with service providers (n=10) and adolescents (n=9). Result: The study revealed changes in length, duration, and flow of menstruation, substandard menstrual hygiene practices, and impediments to adolescents' uptake of reproductive health (RH) information during the pandemic. Married pregnant adolescents were inclined to take their antenatal checkups (ANC) only during the last trimester and preferred delivery at home during the pandemic. There was also an increase in marriage among these adolescents, and service providers had difficulty providing door-to-door RH services. As most of our female adolescents were married off during the pandemic; they lost connection with their friends, making them feel lonely and secluded. They did not receive the support of their friends as before the pandemic. Conclusion: The study will enable the adolescent health expert to focus on the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) of vulnerable adolescents living in impoverished conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
