摘要

背景：1987年，尼日尔的盘尾丝虫病已在六个流行的河流流域得到成功控制。2017 年，尼日尔开展了消除盘尾丝虫病绘图（OEM）工作，以确定整个国家是否仍存在盘尾丝虫病传播：方法：采用建议的 OEM 程序：结果：包括 35 个村庄在内的 10 个地区需要作为可能的传播地进行实地调查。结果：有 10 个地区（包括 35 个村庄）需要作为可能的传播地进行实地调查，但没有发现任何一个地区能够支持黑蝇的繁殖，也没有任何证据表明存在蚋：OEM 的实施表明，目前在尼日尔这些新评估的地点没有盘尾丝虫病的传播。

Successful completion of onchocerciasis elimination mapping (OEM) in Niger, West Africa.

Background: By 1987, onchocerciasis in Niger had been successfully controlled in the six endemic river basins. In 2017, onchocerciasis elimination mapping (OEM) was carried out to determine if there was any ongoing transmission in the country as a whole.

Methods: The recommended OEM procedures were implemented.

Results: Ten districts, that included 35 villages, required field investigation as sites of possible transmission. None of these were found capable of supporting black fly breeding, nor was there any evidence of the presence of Simulium sp. flies.

Conclusions: The implementation of OEM indicates that there is no transmission of onchocerciasis currently taking place in these newly assessed sites in Niger.
