Although it is rapidly microfilaricidal, it does not cause a severe reaction as is seen with diethylcarbamazine treatment. In patients with onchocerciasis, a single oral dose of ivermectin (150 micrograms/Kg) repeated once a year leads to a marked reduction in skin microfilaria counts and ocular involvement, although ivermectin has no known long-lasting effects on the adult worms. With treatment there is no significant exacerbation of either anterior or posterior segment eye disease even in those with severe ocular disease. Treatment leads to a marked and prolonged improvement in ocular status. Because of its safety and efficacy, ivermectin can be used on a mass scale and promises to revolutionize the treatment of onchocerciasis.</p>","PeriodicalId":7108,"journal":{"name":"Acta Leidensia","volume":"59 1-2","pages":"201-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13351261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed a marked fall in biting S. neavei s.l. females and supported earlier findings on the aquatic stages. The mean biting-catch in 1985/6 was only 13% of that in 1963/4 and comprised 91% S. woodi and 9% the more common, but largely zoophilic, Simulium nyasalandicum (Amani form). The infection rate of S. woodi with Onchocerca volvulus larvae had also fallen markedly from 17% to 3% of parous flies; no S. nyasalandicum females were infected. Recent onchocerciasis surveys indicate that reduced transmission has resulted in lower infection rates in man. Exposure by deforestation of the breeding sites of S. woodi in small shaded streams seems to have caused the simuliid's population decline. Reduced populations of S. neavei group vector species have been reported in other deforested parts of eastern Africa. Our long-term quantitative data on declining numbers of biting females without control measures, help to corroborate such reports. Control may no longer be necessary in some areas allowing a greater concentration of limited resources.</p>","PeriodicalId":7108,"journal":{"name":"Acta Leidensia","volume":"59 1-2","pages":"153-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13526057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of ocular microfilariae was found to have reduced remarkably and loads over 20 microfilariae in the anterior chamber of the eye or the cornea which was rampant before the start of vector control, were rare. Whilst limited change in the age specific prevalence of lesions of the posterior segment of the eye was recorded, significant reduction in the prevalence of lesions of the anterior segment of the eye was found. The small decrease in the age specific prevalence of lesions of the posterior segment of the eye was partly explained by a reduced occurrence of the type of lesions of the anterior segment of the eye which previously obstructed the effective view of the fundus during examination. The prevalence of blindness was found to have reduced by 40% and onchocercal blindness was no longer found below the age of 20 years.
