2001年，Urbani和Palmer发表了一篇关于世界卫生组织西太平洋区域国家蠕虫病流行病学状况的综述，指出了该区域的控制需求。在这篇鼓舞人心的文章发表六年后，控制蠕虫病的大规模预防性化疗在该地区急剧扩大。本文分析了最近发表和未发表的国家大规模预防性化疗的信息，并总结了自2000年以来取得的进展。2006年，该区域为控制蠕虫病提供了近3 900万次治疗：近1 400万次用于控制淋巴丝虫病，2 200多万次用于控制土壤传播的蠕虫病，200多万次用于控制血吸虫病。总的来说，湄公河国家和太平洋岛屿对这些蠕虫病的控制进展顺利。在中国，尽管该地区的大部分蠕虫感染病例都在中国，但控制活动尚未达到财政资源有限的国家的覆盖水平。对食源性吸虫的控制仍然有限，但已在中国、老挝人民民主共和国和越南开展试点活动。
In 2001, Urbani and Palmer published a review of the epidemiological situation of helminthiases in the countries of the Western Pacific Region of the World Health Organization indicating the control needs in the region. Six years after this inspiring article, large-scale preventive chemotherapy for the control of helminthiasis has scaled up dramatically in the region. This paper analyzes the most recent published and unpublished country information on large-scale preventive chemotherapy and summarizes the progress made since 2000. Almost 39 million treatments were provided in 2006 in the region for the control of helminthiasis: nearly 14 million for the control of lymphatic filariasis, more than 22 million for the control of soil-transmitted helminthiasis, and over 2 million for the control of schistosomiasis. In general, control of these helminthiases is progressing well in the Mekong countries and Pacific Islands. In China, despite harboring the majority of the helminth infections of the region, the control activities have not reached the level of coverage of countries with much more limited financial resources. The control of food-borne trematodes is still limited, but pilot activities have been initiated in China, Lao People's Democratic Republic, and Vietnam.
