      abstract = {Neurocysticercosis, or infection of the brain by larvae of  the pig tapeworm,  Taenia solium, has been reported in the  literature with increased frequency during the  past 3  decades in the United States. Population-based assessments  of NCC are based on  hospital discharge data, but do not  include the outpatient population of NCC. I provide a   population-based perspective of the complete spectrum of  care of neurocysticercosis in  the insured population of  Oregon using the Oregon All Payers All Claims (APAC). I   describe the demographic characteristics, frequency of  neurocysticercosis-associated  diagnoses and procedures,  and disease burden of people with neurocysticercosis, and   evaluate the APAC database as a source of demographic and  financial information about  NCC in Oregon.},
