Control trial of porcine cysticercosis in Uganda using a combination of the TSOL18 vaccination and oxfendazole

Neurocysticercosis caused by Taenia solium when the parasite lodges in the central nervous system, is an important cause of human seizures and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. The parasite is prevalent in many regions of Uganda. Pigs are intermediate hosts for T. solium , and we evaluated a T. soliu...
