Cysticercosis is a serious public health problem in Madagascar. The prevalence rate of active cysticercosis reached 21% in regions with a high level of livestock farming. Taenia solium of African-American and Asian genotypes are both present on the island. The times of divergence of the 13 specimens studied suggests a very ancient diversification of T. solium. These events are widely thought to be prior to the domestication of pigs, and seem to follow the expansion of Homo in Asia. Multiple human migrations and the diversity of potential intermediate hosts may have led to a complex epidemiological situation on the island.
囊虫病是马达加斯加的一个严重公共卫生问题。在畜牧业发达的地区，囊虫病的流行率高达 21%。该岛同时存在非洲裔和亚洲基因型的猪带绦虫。研究的 13 个样本的分歧时间表明，猪带绦虫的多样化非常古老。这些事件被广泛认为发生在猪的驯化之前，似乎与亚洲人类的扩张有关。多次人类迁徙和潜在中间宿主的多样性可能导致该岛出现复杂的流行病学情况。
