Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jun-2012
Care from the family physician is generally interrupted when patients with cancer come under the care of second-line and third-line healthcare professionals who may also manage the patient’s comorbid conditions. This situation may lead to fragmented and u - Interventions to improve disposal of child faeces for preventing diarrhoea and soil‐transmitted helminth infection
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Sep-2019
Diarrhoea and soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections represent a large disease burden worldwide, particularly in low-income countries.
