 note = {A selective mass-chemotherapy of urinary schistosomiasis was conducted in Mwachinga community of Kwale District, Coast Province of Kenya in August, 2001 after three and a half years since the last urine examination and treatment. Overall, 1118 villagers participated in urine examination. Urine of 1088 villagers was studied for eggs of schistosome haematobium. Egg-positives were 572 out of 1088 villagers, prevalence being 53%. Prevalence among males (56%, 283/508) was higher than females (49%, 290/580). Prevalence was 19% for grosshaematuria, 55% for micro-haematuria, 60% for proteinuria, 44% for self-diagnosed schistosomiasis, 40% for self-reported symptoms of blood in urine, 51% for pain in urination, 40% for difficulty in urination, and 48% for sense of remaining urine. Ninety-two percent of egg-positives (528/572) were treated with praziquantel. Results of anthropometry, self-reported water contact, blood pressure, and medical examination are also reported., 長崎大学医学部保健学科紀要 = Bulletin of Nagasaki University School of Health Sciences. 2001, 14(2), p.23-33},
