Two cross-sectional surveys were carried out in rural Côte d'Ivoire, the first in 5 primary schools in the Lake Taabo area, and the second in the primary school of Azaguié-Institute de Recherche sur les Fruits et Agrumes. Overall, 251 school children were screened for Strongyloides stercoralis by using either the Baermann method, or the Koga agar plate method, or both techniques. The prevalence of S. stercoralis at the unit of the school ranged between 4.0 and 48%. Because S. stercoralis is a neglected nematode, yet an important parasite from a public health perspective, surveys should consider the use of appropriate diagnostic methods to further our understanding of the epidemiology of strongyloidiasis and to better target control interventions.
在科特迪瓦农村地区开展了两项横断面调查，第一项在塔博湖地区的5所小学进行，第二项在阿扎吉耶水果和柑橘研究所小学进行。总体而言，通过使用贝尔曼法、小田琼脂平板法或两种技术对251名学童进行了粪类圆线虫筛查。学校单位中粪类圆线虫的患病率在4.0%至48%之间。由于粪类圆线虫是一种被忽视的线虫，但从公共卫生角度来看是一种重要的寄生虫，调查应考虑使用适当的诊断方法，以加深我们对类圆线虫病流行病学的理解，并更好地确定控制干预措施的目标。
