Methods: Retrospective descriptive study of the patients included in the TB programme in 2012-2013. Follow-up was continued till June 2014.
Objective: Efficacy of artemisinin derivatives alone or in combination compared to praziquantel alone for the treatment of urinary schistosomiasis in schoolchildren.
Methods: Randomized clinical trials comparing praziquantel with artemisinin derivatives in the treatment of urinary schistosomiasis in schoolchildren were included. Medline, EMBASE, LILACS, CENTRAL, African Index Medicus, and Scielo were searched.
