This study was performed to evaluate the status of intestinal parasitic infections among the inhabitants in two islands (Chu-do and Doomi-do) of Tongyeong-gun, Kyeongsangnam-do (Province), from August to September, 1989. A total of 189 stool specimens was collected from the inhabitants of 3 villages and examined by Kato's cellophane thick smear and formalin-ether sedimentation techniques. Stoll's dilution egg counting technique was done for the quantitative examination of helminth eggs. The overall positive rate of intestinal parasites was 30.2%. The egg positive rate of Ascaris lumbricoides was 2.1%, that of Trichuris trichiura 24.3%, hookworm 2.1%, Trichostrongylus orientalis 0.5%, Clonorchis sinensis 1.1%, heterophyid 1.6%, and Taenia species 2.6%. The cyst positive rate of Giardia lamblia was 1.6% and that of Entamoeba coli 0.5%. In T. trichiura infection, the egg positive rate of females (29.9%) was much higher than that of males (17.2%). Among the age groups, 10-19 year group showed the highest infection rate, 32.4%. It was revealed that the prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections among the inhibitants of remote islands should be still high in comparison with ever-reported ones in urban or rural areas.
本研究旨在评估1989年8月至9月庆尚南道统营郡两个岛屿（朱岛和斗米岛）居民肠道寄生虫感染状况。共从3个村庄的居民中采集了189份粪便标本，采用加藤氏透明厚涂片法和福尔马林-乙醚沉淀技术进行检查。采用司徒尔氏稀释虫卵计数技术对蠕虫卵进行定量检查。肠道寄生虫总体阳性率为30.2%。蛔虫卵阳性率为2.1%，鞭虫卵阳性率为24.3%，钩虫卵阳性率为2.1%，东方毛圆线虫卵阳性率为0.5%，华支睾吸虫卵阳性率为1.1%，异形吸虫卵阳性率为1.6%，带绦虫卵阳性率为2.6%。蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫包囊阳性率为1.6%，结肠内阿米巴包囊阳性率为0.5%。在鞭虫感染中，女性虫卵阳性率（29.9%）远高于男性（17.2%）。在各年龄组中，10 - 19岁年龄组感染率最高，为32.4%。结果显示，与以往报道的城市或农村地区相比，偏远岛屿居民肠道寄生虫感染率仍然较高。
