英文摘要
Project Abstract
Monitoring and evaluation of control programs for Schistosoma mansoni is currently
performed by detection of parasite eggs in stool samples using the Kato-Katz technique.
This method has known limitations in sensitivity and requires trained microscopists and
functional microscopes to perform the assessments. Recently (in 2008), a point of care
(POC) test that detects S. mansoni circulating cathodic antigen (CCA) in urine has
become commercially available. It is cheaper, easy to deploy, has greater sensitivity than
stool exam and rapidly becomes negative upon successful treatment. At the WHO
meeting on schistosome diagnostics in February 2015, the working group and
subsequently the Strategic and Technical Advisory Group (STAG) encouraged additional
validation of the POC-CCA to better define what cutoffs should be used for program
decision making as well as for monitoring and evaluation for S. mansoni control
programs. More data are needed on the performance of newly developed schistosomal
antigen tests in endemic and post-MDA settings in order to be able to develop
recommendations for programmatic use of these tools. Existing evidence suggests that
in areas of high prevalence (≥ 50%), the Kato-Katz and POC-CCA assays both provide
reasonable and comparable levels of prevalence and that the current guidelines are
entirely adequate for morbidity control. However, there is a paucity of comparable data
in areas of low (< 30%) prevalence. Thus, we propose in this study to evaluate the
diagnostic performance of the POC CCA and Kato-Katz assays in areas of low S.
mansoni prevalence in western Kenya. Findings from this study will help to clarify the
relationship between Kato-Katz and POC-CCA and determine whether the visual POC-
CCA band intensities can be used to evaluate treatment efficacy in order to inform
program interventions.
