Fasciolosis, caused by the liver flukes and , is a zoonotic parasitic disease associated with substantial economic losses in livestock. The transforming growth factor-beta signalling pathway is implicated in developmental processes and biological functions throughout the animal kingdom, including the spp. It may also mediate host-helminth interactions during infection.

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.

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.
