The mixed passive hemagglutination (MPHA) test was used for the first time in an attempt to diagnose human pulmonary dirofilariasis in a comparison with the results of ELISA. Eight of nine patients tested with the MPHA test were positive and one was false-positive; these results coincided exactly with those of ELISA. Qualitative agreement between the MPHA test and ELISA was 90.4% of 374 human sera. The present study indicates that the MPHA test seems to be a promising diagnostic tool for human pulmonary dirofilariasis.
首次使用混合被动血凝试验（MPHA）来诊断人类肺丝虫病，并与酶联免疫吸附测定（ELISA）的结果进行比较。接受MPHA检测的9名患者中有8名呈阳性，1名呈假阳性；这些结果与ELISA的结果完全一致。在374份人类血清中，MPHA试验与ELISA之间的定性一致性为90.4%。本研究表明，MPHA试验似乎是诊断人类肺丝虫病的一种有前景的诊断工具。
