[Seminar] Human African trypanosomiasis

Sat, 2025-03-15 00:00
Human African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness is caused by infection with Trypanosoma brucei gambiense or Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense parasites, which are transmitted by tsetse flies in sub-Saharan Africa. Control of human African trypanosomiasis is based on case detection, treatment, and vector control. In the past decade, simple rapid diagnostic tests were introduced for gambiense human African trypanosomiasis, facilitating screening in primary health-care facilities. A new oral drug, fexinidazole, became the first-line treatment for gambiense human African trypanosomiasis without severe meningo-encephalitic disease, as well as for rhodesiense human African trypanosomiasis.
