The purpose of this report is to compare the prevalence of Opisthorchis viverrini/minute intestinal fluke (Ov/MIF) in Lao People's Democratic Republic according to different regions and evaluate the effect of ingestion of raw freshwater fish on the infection. Demographic data, behavioral data, and symptoms were obtained, and the Kato-Katz method was used for the diagnosis of Ov/MIF. In total, 3,046 individuals were enrolled. The risk factors associated with acquisition of Ov/MIF were raw fish consumption and province. Khong Island showed the highest prevalence (odds ratio = 80.1, 95% confidence interval = 47.9-133.9, P < 0.001) compared with other districts, and raw fish consumption was related to Ov/MIF infection. Administration of praziquantel to entire populations, education (avoiding consumption of raw food dishes and improved hygiene), and access to clean water and sanitation should be considered.
本报告的目的是比较老挝人民民主共和国不同地区肝片形吸虫/肠微小型吸虫（Ov/MIF）的流行情况，并评估生食淡水鱼对感染的影响。收集人口统计学数据、行为数据和症状，并用加藤厚涂片法诊断 Ov/MIF。共纳入 3046 人。与获得 Ov/MIF 相关的风险因素是食用生鱼和省份。孔岛的感染率最高（优势比=80.1，95%置信区间=47.9-133.9，P<0.001），与其他地区相比，生食鱼与 Ov/MIF 感染有关。应考虑对全体人群进行吡喹酮治疗、教育（避免食用生食品和改善卫生）以及提供清洁水和卫生设施。
