Stool and urine analysis of 150 cases of phlyctenular eye disease, revealed that 115 (76.67%) were positive for intestinal parasites. The most prevalent parasites were Hymenolepis nana (49.56%) followed by Ascaris lumbricoides (27.82%). Eosinophilia (5-10%) was detected in 90 phlycten cases (60%), 80 of them (88.8%) had parasitic infection. Since H. nana can produce a type of tissue hypersensitivity, phlyctenular eye disease may be partly referred to such an infection.
对150例泡性眼病患者的粪便和尿液分析显示,115例(76.67%)肠道寄生虫检测呈阳性。最常见的寄生虫是微小膜壳绦虫(49.56%),其次是蛔虫(27.82%)。90例泡性眼病患者(60%)检测到嗜酸性粒细胞增多(5%-10%),其中80例(88.8%)有寄生虫感染。由于微小膜壳绦虫可产生一种组织超敏反应,泡性眼病可能部分归因于这种感染。
