BACKGROUND
Intestinal parasitoses is a clinical problem in the developing world and severe parasitaemia may be associated with retroviruses.
OBJECTIVE
Studies on intestinal parasitoses were conducted in Dominica, and the health implications in an HTLV-1 endemic area were discussed.
METHOD OF STUDY
A retrospective study of data of stool samples analysed at the parasitology unit of the medical laboratory services of Princess Margaret Hospital, Dominica, was conducted in January-December 1999.
RESULTS
Parasites were found in 393 out of 3,752 stool samples (10.47%). The main parasites were Entamoeba coli, 1.4% (51/3,752); hookworm, 1.5% (56/3,752); Giardia lamblia, 1.4% (51/3,752); Strongyloides stercoralis, 1.0% (37/3,752); Ascaris lumbricoides, 0.8% (28/3,752); and Trichuris trichiura, 0.9% (34/3,752).
CONCLUSION
Intestinal parasites are still endemic in Dominica, but significant reduction in prevalence has occurred over the last two decades.
背景
肠道寄生虫病是发展中世界的一个临床问题，严重的寄生虫血症可能与逆转录病毒有关。
目的
在多米尼克开展了关于肠道寄生虫病的研究，并讨论了在HTLV-1流行地区其对健康的影响。
研究方法
1999年1月至12月，对多米尼克玛格丽特公主医院医学检验服务寄生虫学部门分析的粪便样本数据进行了回顾性研究。
结果
在3752份粪便样本中的393份（10.47%）中发现了寄生虫。主要寄生虫为大肠埃希菌，1.4%（51/3752）；钩虫，1.5%（56/3752）；蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫，1.4%（51/3752）；粪类圆线虫，1.0%（37/3752）；蛔虫，0.8%（28/3752）；以及鞭虫，0.9%（34/3752）。
结论
肠道寄生虫在多米尼克仍然流行，但在过去二十年中患病率已显著下降。
