Lancet Infect Dis
October 2024
Department of Infectious-Tropical Diseases and Microbiology, IRCCS Sacro Cuore Don Calabria Hospital, Negrar di Valpolicella, Verona, Italy; Department of Clinical and Experimental Sciences, University of Brescia, Brescia, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Terminology inconsistencies in schistosomiasis cause confusion in data interpretation and clinical descriptions, prompting this study to establish consensus definitions for clinical aspects of the disease in migrants and travelers.
- The Delphi method was utilized, involving a group of experts from GeoSentinel and TropNet who provided input on the definitions, which were revised and pilot-tested.
- After several rounds of feedback and analysis, a high level of consensus (79-100% agreement) was achieved for all proposed definitions, which will enhance communication and support future research and guidelines for managing schistosomiasis.

Introduction: The World Health Organization (WHO)'s Research and Development (R&D) Blueprint for Action to Prevent Epidemics, a plan of action, highlighted several infectious diseases as crucial targets for prevention. These infections were selected based on a thorough assessment of factors such as transmissibility, infectivity, severity, and evolutionary potential. In line with this blueprint, the VACCELERATE Site Network approached infectious disease experts to rank the diseases listed in the WHO R&D Blueprint according to their perceived risk of triggering a pandemic.
