Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Helminths has always been a global challenge to the humanity causing a range of serious illnesses. However, there is more and more evidence that the influence of helminths on the human body is inversely correlated with some allergic diseases mediated by the Th2 response. Accordingly, recently there has been an increased interest in a more detailed study of this issue as there is a possibility of the potential therapeutic use of helminths and their derivatives in allergic diseases.
