The missing term in the sentence is “Symptoms”.
Intestinal nematode infection is a parasitic infection caused by various species of worms that infest the human intestine. As mentioned in the question, this infection can have a range of adverse effects on the host’s health, including malnutrition, discomfort, anemia, and sometimes even death.
The severity of these symptoms is directly related to the intensity of worm infection or “worm load.” A small worm load may not produce apparent symptoms in some people, while a higher worm load can result in more severe symptoms. Thus, it is essential to monitor and treat nematode infections to prevent morbidity and mortality.
