Abstract：
Tapeworm infections in humans are considered to be a significant public health menace. Despite its public health importance, the data on tapeworm infection remains fragmented and underutilised. The present study reviews the overall burden and distribution of taeniasis and cysticercosis caused by Taenia solium and Taenia saginata in India by conducting a systematic review of the scientific literature based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Data from 19 eligible articles were analysed and the prevalence of T. solium-associated taeniasis/cysticercosis was found to be 11.06% (95% confidence interval [CI] 6.856 to 16.119) and the prevalence of T. saginata-associated taeniasis was found to be 4.7% (95% CI 3.301 to 6.301). This systematic review and meta-analysis provides a comprehensive analysis of the available literature on tapeworm infections and assesses the burden of Taenia infection from India, identifying areas of high prevalence requiring active surveillance and public health interventions.
摘要：
人类中的线虫感染被认为是重大的公共卫生威胁。尽管它的公共健康重要性，有关the虫感染的数据仍然支离破碎，未得到充分利用。本研究通过对基于系统评价和荟萃分析指南的首选报告项目的科学文献进行系统评价，回顾了印度由猪带虫和猪带虫引起的带菌病和囊虫病的总体负担和分布。分析了来自19篇符合条件的文章的数据，发现T.saginata相关的带菌病/囊虫病的患病率为11.06％（95％置信区间[CI]6.856至16.119），而T.saginata相关的带菌病的患病率为4.7％（95％CI3.301至6.301）。这项系统的综述和荟萃分析提供了对现有的有关tape虫感染的文献的全面分析，并评估了来自印度的the虫感染的负担。确定需要积极监测和公共卫生干预措施的高流行地区。
