To determine whether the presence of is associated with other gastrointestinal parasite infections, stool samples from 95 Honduran rural children were analyzed using multi-parallel quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Kato-Katz. Combined results detected the following prevalence: , 71.6%; , 63.2%; , 40.0%; , 15.8%; and , 4.2%. Age was found associated with the quantity of both DNA ( = 0.524, < 0.001) and DNA in the stool (fg/µL) by quantitative PCR ( = 0.272, < 0.001). In addition, there was an association with and infection (odds ratio [OR] = 4.72; 95% CI = 1.83, 12.20; < 0.001). These findings demonstrate a high prevalence of and other intestinal parasites in a rural location in Honduras.
为了确定 是否与其他胃肠道寄生虫感染有关，我们使用多平行定量实时聚合酶链反应（PCR）和加藤法对 95 名洪都拉斯农村儿童的粪便样本进行了分析。综合结果显示以下流行率： ，71.6%； ，63.2%； ，40.0%； ，15.8%； 和 ，4.2%。通过定量 PCR 发现年龄与 DNA（ = 0.524， < 0.001）和粪便中 DNA（fg/µL）的数量有关（ = 0.272， < 0.001）。此外， 与 和 感染之间存在关联（比值比[OR] = 4.72；95%置信区间[CI] = 1.83, 12.20； < 0.001）。这些发现表明在洪都拉斯的农村地区存在 和其他肠道寄生虫的高流行率。
