Background: infection and microhaematuria among schoolchildren in the municipality of Banfora, southwestern Burkina Faso. Methods: infection and microhaematuria were determined using multivariable logistic regression. Results: infection (adjusted OR: 31.3, 95 % CI: 5.9-165.8). Conclusions: infection is hypoendemic in the Banfora municipality. However, the high prevalence of heavy infections is a particular concern, and targeted treatment strategies and complementary measures, including health education, should prioritize school-aged children living in rural areas.
