BACKGROUND
Intestinal parasitism remains a public health challenge in northwestern Mexico even when a twice yearly single dose of albendazole (400 mg) is administered to schoolchildren. We aimed to determine the current prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections in schoolchildren of northwestern Mexico.
METHODS
The Faust and Kato Katz techniques were used to detect and identify the intestinal parasite species. One thousand two hundred and seventy eight children from 12 public schools were invited to participate in this study; 312 children participated in September 2003.
RESULTS
Sixty eight percent of the subjects had intestinal parasites, 63% had protozoan infections, and 29%, 16% and 10% were infected with , , and respectively. Fifty children excreted eggs of .
CONCLUSION
Educational strategies should be considered to support the national de-worming campaign, because albendazole alone will not sufficiently improve the health conditions of vulnerable populations.
背景
即使每半年给学童单次服用一剂阿苯达唑（400毫克），肠道寄生虫病仍是墨西哥西北部的一项公共卫生挑战。我们旨在确定墨西哥西北部学童肠道寄生虫感染的当前流行情况。
方法
采用福斯特和加藤厚涂片法检测和鉴定肠道寄生虫种类。邀请了来自12所公立学校的1278名儿童参与本研究；2003年9月有312名儿童参与。
结果
68%的受试者有肠道寄生虫，63%有原生动物感染，分别有29%、16%和10%的受试者感染了 、 和 。50名儿童排出了 的虫卵。
结论
应考虑采取教育策略来支持全国驱虫运动，因为仅靠阿苯达唑不足以改善弱势群体的健康状况。
