Fasciola-induced fascioliasis is a zoonotic disease with significant health and economic impacts on humans and livestock. Freshwater Lymnaea snails serve as intermediate hosts, contributing to the increasing prevalence of fascioliasis in cattle in coastal areas. The salinity tolerance of Lymnaea snails was investigated along with their distribution and Fasciola infection rates in both snails and grazing cattle in Ben Tre, Tra Vinh, and Soc Trang provinces in Mekong Delta, Vietnam, where seawater reversely enters into the paddy field during the dry season.

However, data on the distribution and risk factors for fascioliasis remain limited, while epidemiological gaps hinder schistosomiasis control in Tanzania. This One Health, cross-sectional study examined the prevalence and risk factors of schistomiasis and fascioliasis in northern Tanzania, involving 310 livestock and 317 human participants from Arusha, Kilimanjaro, and Manyara regions.

Article Synopsis
- Fascioliasis is a disease mainly found in livestock but has seen an increase in human cases in Korea, linked to a green vegetable juice delivery service.
- Patients diagnosed with fascioliasis often presented with specific symptoms like eosinophilia and were treated with triclabendazole, showing varying recovery patterns in liver abscesses over time.
- MRI findings indicated that late-diagnosed patients had a higher incidence of bile duct issues, while antibody levels and eosinophil counts significantly declined after treatment, suggesting the need for ongoing monitoring.
Prevalence and Economic Significance of Fasciolosis among Cattle Slaughtered at Municipal Abattoirs in Ethiopia from 2010 to 2023: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Fasciolosis is a prevalent disease that significantly impairs the health and productivity of cattle and causes significant economic damage. Beyond the individually available studies with varying prevalence rates, there are no pooled national prevalence studies on bovine fasciolosis. Therefore, the current study aims to determine the pooled prevalence and economic significance of fasciolosis among cattle in Ethiopia.
