The study reported that the overall pooled prevalence of T. solium taeniasis was 0.78% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.65-0.93) based on data from 42 eligible studies. Subgroup analysis showed higher prevalence rates in Africa (1.29%; 95% CI: 1.00-1.67) compared to Asia (0.33%; 95% CI: 0.24-0.44) and Latin America (0.73%; 95% CI: 0.58-0.91)
