- - Accurate diagnosis of strongyloidiasis is essential for effective treatment, and a review of 52 studies highlights the various diagnostic assays used in Southeast Asia over the past 30 years.
- - Many common parasitological methods are found to be insensitive, resulting in an underestimation of Strongyloides infection rates in the region; it’s recommended to use a combination of techniques for better detection.
- - Newer diagnostics like urine ELISAs and rapid lateral flow tests are emerging, indicating that improving and standardizing these tests can help better estimate infection rates and enhance control measures.
