In the years 1998-2008 there were examined for pneumocystosis serum samples collected from 5223 children with respiratory tract infections, aged up to 10 years. The examinations were carried out for the presence of specific IgG and IgM antibodies with an indirect immunofluorescent antibody test. Specific anti-Pneumocystis antibodies were detected in 68,7% of the examined children, including 68,49% with IgG and 2.85% with IgM antibodies. The highest percentages of IgM and IgG positive samples were encountered, respectively, in children aged up to 6 months (4,17%) and in those in the second half of the first year of life (73%). The results of the examinations indicated that in Poland the prevalence of pneumocystosis in children with symptoms of respiratory tract infection is similar to that described by foreign authors for healthy, immunocompetent children.
在1998年至2008年期间，对5223名10岁以下患有呼吸道感染的儿童采集的血清样本进行了肺孢子虫病检测。采用间接免疫荧光抗体试验检测特异性IgG和IgM抗体的存在情况。在68.7%的受检儿童中检测到特异性抗肺孢子虫抗体，其中IgG抗体阳性的占68.49%，IgM抗体阳性的占2.85%。IgM和IgG阳性样本比例最高的分别是6个月以下的儿童（4.17%）和出生后第一年下半年的儿童（73%）。检测结果表明，在波兰，有呼吸道感染症状的儿童中肺孢子虫病的患病率与国外作者描述的健康、免疫功能正常儿童的患病率相似。
