We evaluated the occurrence of intestinal parasites and commensals among children and adults from a landless camping in the rural area of Uberlândia, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, from October to November 2001. Stool samples from 78 individuals were examined by both the Baermann-Moraes and Lutz methods. Fifty-one (65.4%; CI 54.8 - 76.0) individuals were found to be infected, 23 (45.1%) children and 28 (54.9%) adults, of whom 34 (66.7%) were mono-infected, 9 (17.6%) bi-infected, and 8 (15.7%) poly-infected. In conclusion, the high prevalence of intestinal parasites and commensals suggests that parasitological exams should be periodically carried out in addition to the sanitation education and health special care in this population.
2001年10月至11月，我们对巴西米纳斯吉拉斯州乌贝兰迪亚农村地区一个无地者营地的儿童和成人肠道寄生虫及共生菌的感染情况进行了评估。采用贝尔曼-莫雷斯法和卢茨法对78人的粪便样本进行了检测。发现51人（65.4%；置信区间54.8 - 76.0）被感染，其中23名儿童（45.1%）和28名成人（54.9%），其中34人（66.7%）为单一感染，9人（17.6%）为双重感染，8人（15.7%）为多重感染。总之，肠道寄生虫和共生菌的高感染率表明，除了对该人群进行卫生教育和特殊健康护理外，还应定期进行寄生虫学检查。
