Schistosome Infection Intensity Is Inversely Related to Auto-Reactive Antibody Levels

In animal experimental models, parasitic helminth infections can protect the host from auto-immune diseases. We conducted a population-scale human study investigating the relationship between helminth parasitism and auto-reactive antibodies and the subsequent effect of anti-helminthic treatment on t...
