We aimed to determine the malaria prevalence in a 5-year period by using the data obtained from Malaria Control Center associated with the Manisa Province Public Health Office Infectious Diseases Department in Manisa between 2008 and 2012.
The data were evaluated according to age, gender, type of parasite, and the places of travel.
In this study, six imported malaria cases were detected in blood samples from 86,955 patients by the Malaria Control Center, associated with the Manisa Province Public Health Office Infectious Diseases Department, with active and passive surveillance between 2008 and 2012. Positivity rate was 0.007%.
Imported malaria cases, due to increasing international travel and migration, have a serious endemic potential based on unsuitable or insufficient prophylaxis, although malaria cases have decreased notably by successful eradication studies in Turkey. This paper was prepared especially in order to point out this subject, because all of the cases were imported.
我们旨在利用2008年至2012年期间从马尼萨省公共卫生办公室传染病科所属的疟疾控制中心获取的数据，确定5年内的疟疾流行率。
根据年龄、性别、寄生虫类型和旅行地点对数据进行评估。
在本研究中，马尼萨省公共卫生办公室传染病科所属的疟疾控制中心在2008年至2012年期间通过主动和被动监测，在86955名患者的血样中检测到6例输入性疟疾病例。阳性率为0.007%。
尽管土耳其通过成功的根除研究使疟疾病例显著减少，但由于国际旅行和移民增加，输入性疟疾病例因预防措施不当或不足而具有严重的地方流行潜力。本文特意撰写以指出这一问题，因为所有病例均为输入性。
