Cystic echinococcosis in the Xinjiang/Uygur Autonomous Region, People's Republic of China. II. Comparison of three levels of a local preventive and control program.

A project to compare different levels of a hydatid disease control program was instigated and evaluated in 16 randomly selected villages in the Xinjiang/Uygur Autonomous Region, PRC (China). Factors tested included the effect of: 1) the role of a village hydatid disease control officer, 2) the use of praziquantel-medicated "bait" tablets for treatment of Echinococcus granulosus tapeworms in dogs, and 3) the use of educational materials for children and adults. Evaluation of contrasting treatment levels was done by determining infection rates of E. granulosus in about 25 dogs examined from each of the 16 villages before and after the trial period, and by use of pre- and post-treatment questionnaires distributed to 40 randomly selected households in each village. Optimum results were obtained in those villages which received medicated tablets and support visits from a control officer on a monthly basis (so-called "moderate intervention level").[1]
