In the course of an investigation into the incidence of porcine taeniasis among humans and and pigs which live in close contact with each other in a rural town of South-Western Nigeria, no incidence of the parasite was found. Ascaris, Strongyle (hookworm in case of humans) and Trichuris were the helminths encountered while Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba coli were the common protozoan cysts. Polyparasitism was common and a 12 year old boy had Salmonella infection concurrently with Ascaris and hookworm. Analysis of hospital records of the town for ten years (1972-81) showed only 2 cases out of 1665 patients diagnosed as positive for Taenia infection through faecal examination. Abattoir records of incidence of bovine and porcine cysticercosis in various towns of Oyo State also showed very low incidence in these animals. It is concluded that the rural town of Erua and the Oyo state in which it is locates are not endemic for porcine and bovine taeniasis.
在对尼日利亚西南部一个乡村小镇中彼此密切接触的人类和猪群的猪带绦虫病发病率进行调查的过程中，未发现该寄生虫发病情况。调查发现的蠕虫有蛔虫、圆线虫（人类为钩虫）和鞭虫，而常见的原生动物囊肿为溶组织内阿米巴和结肠内阿米巴。多重寄生虫感染情况很常见，一名12岁男孩同时感染了沙门氏菌、蛔虫和钩虫。对该小镇十年（1972 - 1981年）的医院记录进行分析显示，在1665名经粪便检查确诊为绦虫感染阳性的患者中，仅有2例。奥约州各城镇牛和猪囊尾蚴病发病率的屠宰场记录也显示，这些动物的发病率很低。得出的结论是，埃鲁阿乡村小镇及其所在的奥约州并非猪和牛带绦虫病的地方性流行区。
