Abstract

Trypanosoma cruzi parasitemia observed in immunocompromised patients (transplant or positive HIV) occurred more frequently by the artificial xenodiagnosis method (10/38) compared with hemoculture (2/38), given the same quantity of blood. Other ways of diagnosis, like mice inoculation (5/38), QBC and buffy coat (2/38), were evaluated also. This result showed the importance of the artificial xenodiagnosis. The other techniques increased only one more patient positive.

摘要

在免疫功能低下患者（移植患者或HIV阳性患者）中观察到，在相同血量的情况下，与血液培养（2/38）相比，人工异嗜性诊断法（10/38）检测到的克氏锥虫血症更为常见。还评估了其他诊断方法，如小鼠接种（5/38）、QBC和血沉棕黄层（2/38）。这一结果显示了人工异嗜性诊断的重要性。其他技术仅多检测出一名阳性患者。
