BACKGROUND: Lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis, soil-transmitted helminths (STH) and trachoma represent the five most prevalent neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). They can be controlled
<em>Strongyloides stercoralis</em> is associated with significant morbidity in rural Cambodia, including stunting in children (Publications)
combination of high prevalence and morbidity calls for the integration of S. stercoralis into ongoing STH control measures in Cambodia.
