Impact of modified leprosy elimination campaign in a MDT pilot project district of India. Indian Journal of Public Health. 2001 Jul-Sep; 45(3): 88-92http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/109023A study was carried out based upon the data available from National Leprosy Eradication Program of Purulia district in West Bengal. The result showed that the disease was in a declining trend up to the year 1998 and was inclining during the year 1998-1999 due to more case detection through MLEC-I, then followed by declining trend during the year 2000 as it was observed by MLEC-II. Single skin lesion rate was higher, MB rate was same and reduced deformity rate indicates early detection of cases due to better awareness of the community about the disease.engAdolescentChildFemaleHealth Promotion --organization & administrationHumansIndia --epidemiologyLeprosy --diagnosisMalePilot ProjectsPrevalenceJournal Article
