Patterns and risks of Trichinella infection in humans and pigs in northern Laos
Several outbreaks of trichinellosis associated with the consumption of raw pork have occurred in Laos since 2004.
This cross-sectional study was conducted in four provinces of northern Laos to investigate the seroepidemiology of trichinellosis in the human population and determine the prevalence and species of Trichinella infection in the domestic pig population.
