The author studies the significance of intestinal bilharziosis in Guadeloupe. Immunologic methods have been used because of their greater sensitivity: a complement fixation micromethod using a delipidated antigen is described. The study of about 8,500 sera taken in various areas showed the significance of bilharziosis: the mean level of positive sera was 35%, a figure much higher than those obtained with parasitologic methods. The percentage observed in the various regions showed sometimes very great differences, which may be explained by various factors, the most important ones being the population density, the disposition of the hydrographic network and its relationships with habitat. Such a study, if it could be carried out during the next years, should allow to appreciate the efficiency of the control measures of the endemia.
作者研究了瓜德罗普岛肠道血吸虫病的重要性。由于免疫方法具有更高的敏感性,因此使用了免疫方法:描述了一种使用脱脂抗原的补体结合微量法。对不同地区采集的约8500份血清的研究显示了血吸虫病的重要性:阳性血清的平均水平为35%,这一数字远高于用寄生虫学方法获得的数字。在不同地区观察到的百分比有时差异很大,这可能由多种因素解释,其中最重要的因素是人口密度、水系分布及其与栖息地的关系。这样的研究如果能在未来几年进行,应该有助于评估地方病控制措施的效果。
