Present state of opisthorchosis infestation in the Dnieper watershed (rivers Vorskla, Psyol, Khorol, Sula, Seym, Snov, Desna water basins), situated in the Sumy, Chernigov, and Poltava regions of the Ukraine, is assessed. 7909 humans from 37 villages, 94 cats, 1134 carp fishes, 20013 mollusca and 30 soil samples were screened for the presence of Opisthorchis eggs. Opisthorchosis foci with an over 36% infection rate of population remain in the watersheds of the Dnieper left confluents (rivers Desna, Seym, Vorskla and Khorol). Infestation rate varies between various rivers as well as along one and the same river which is due to several ecological and social factors. Opisthorchis circulation is established at all the rivers but in most areas it didn't involve human population. Distribution pattern of human opisthorchosis in evidently focal and patchy which should be taken into account in the planning and implementation of opisthorchosis control measures.
对位于乌克兰苏梅州、切尔尼戈夫州和波尔塔瓦州的第聂伯河流域（包括沃尔斯克拉河、普肖尔河、霍罗尔河、苏拉河、塞姆河、斯诺夫河、杰斯纳河流域）的后睾吸虫感染现状进行了评估。对来自37个村庄的7909人、94只猫、1134条鲤鱼、20013只软体动物和30份土壤样本进行了后睾吸虫卵筛查。在第聂伯河左岸支流（杰斯纳河、塞姆河、沃尔斯克拉河和霍罗尔河）流域仍存在人群感染率超过36%的后睾吸虫病疫源地。不同河流以及同一条河流不同地段的感染率有所不同，这是由多种生态和社会因素造成的。所有河流均已形成后睾吸虫传播循环，但在大多数地区尚未涉及人群。人体后睾吸虫病的分布模式明显呈灶状和片状，在规划和实施后睾吸虫病防控措施时应予以考虑。
