BACKGROUND
Survey on the prevalence of various intestinal parasitic infestations in different geographic regions is a prerequisite to obtain an accurate understanding of the burden and cause of intestinal parasitic infestations in a particular area. The aim of the present study was to determine the intestinal parasitic infestation among children in a semi-urban area.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A total of 335 stool samples were collected, processed, and microscopically examined for intestinal parasites.
RESULTS
One hundred twenty-eight (38%) stool samples showed presence of ova/cysts. Multiple parasites were seen in 42 (32.8%) samples. Among the protozoans, Entamoeba histolytica (55.3%) was the most common followed by Giardia lamblia (40.4%). Ascaris lumbricoides and Hymenolepis nana (24.2%) were the most common helminths detected.
CONCLUSIONS
In most of the cases, intestinal parasitic infestation spreads due to low standards of personal hygiene, poor sanitation, non-usage of toilets and an illiterate population, thus suggesting regular surveys to help in devising optimum methods of control.
背景
对不同地理区域各种肠道寄生虫感染的流行情况进行调查，是准确了解特定地区肠道寄生虫感染负担和病因的前提。本研究的目的是确定半城市地区儿童的肠道寄生虫感染情况。
材料与方法
共收集335份粪便样本，进行处理并通过显微镜检查肠道寄生虫。
结果
128份（38%）粪便样本显示存在虫卵/包囊。42份（32.8%）样本中发现多种寄生虫。在原生动物中，溶组织内阿米巴（55.3%）最为常见，其次是蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫（40.4%）。检测到的最常见蠕虫是蛔虫和微小膜壳绦虫（24.2%）。
结论
在大多数情况下，肠道寄生虫感染是由于个人卫生标准低、卫生条件差、不使用厕所和人口文盲率高而传播的，因此建议定期进行调查，以帮助制定最佳控制方法。
