[Gaps in Clonorchiasis Control in China].

Abstract

Clonorchiasis is currently the most important food-borne parasitic disease in China. In this review, gaps in the control of clonorchiasis in China are explored through problem tree analysis. From the perspective of disease control, clonorchiasis hyper-endemicity is associated with the implicit disease burden, incomplete epidemiological map, unclear epidemiological determinants, and a lack of surveillance and report system. Thus, studies are needed to overcome these problems, to promote clonorchiasis control and elimination in China.
