Effect of the methanolic fraction from Clerodendrum umbellatum leaves aqueous extract on the worm burden, fecal egg count and egg load in the liver and intestine of mice on the 65th day post-infection. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM; n = 5 (NIC) or n = 6 (IC, PZQ, CuF100, CuF200 and CuF400). NIC non-infected mice, IC infected-untreated mice, PZQ infected mice treated with praziquantel; CuF100, CuF200 and CuF400, infected mice treated with the methanolic fraction from C. umbellatum leaves aqueous extract at 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg respectively. ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls multiple comparison test: ^**, ^***: statistically different from IC group at p < 0.01 and p < 0.001 respectively. ^§, ^§§: statistically different from PZQ group at p < 0.05 and p < 0.01 respectively
