In epidemiologically dangerous biotopes of foci with high prevalence of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), different female age groups (nulliparous, young parous, old parous) were observed in the same proportions. On the contrary, in areas without HAT or in low prevalence foci (< 0.2%), these proportions significantly differed. Female age group distribution in epidemiologically dangerous biotopes could thus be a good indication by which to guide the control of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT).
在人类非洲锥虫病（HAT）高流行区的具有流行病学危险性的生物群落中，不同年龄组的女性（未生育、年轻经产、年长经产）的比例相同。相反，在无HAT或低流行区（<0.2%），这些比例有显著差异。因此，在具有流行病学危险性的生物群落中的女性年龄组分布可能是指导人类非洲锥虫病（HAT）防治工作的良好指标。
