Disentangling the transmission of Clonorchis sinensis: A one health approach
Our findings demonstrate that clonorchiasis is an important public health problem in the study area, and cats and dogs are the primary animal reservoir hosts for <i>C. sinensis</i> there, while poultry and livestock do not appear to participate in the local transmission cycle. The presence of infected animals in shared communities is significantly associated with an increased risk of human infection.
