Epidemiological studies of vaginalis trichomonosis, especially in pregnant women are rare in Africa due to the lack of screening programs. The present study aimed to assess the prevalence of T. vaginalis infection and its associated factors in pregnant women who attended the antenatal care clinics in three primary health centers of Bobo-Dioulasso. We carried out a cross-sectional study for descriptive and analytical purposes from February to April 2015 in pregnant women seen in prenatal consultations. The study took place in 3 primary public health centers: Guimbi (Central Urban), Bolomakoté (Peri-urban) and Yéguérésso (rural). The trophozoites of Trichomonas vaginalis was carried out by microscopy on vaginal swabs and urine samples. Sociodemographic, obstetric and biological variables were also collected. A total of 315 pregnant women were included in the study. The overall prevalence of urogenital trichomonosis was 3.2%. It was 1.9% in Guimbi, 2.9% in Bolomakoté, and 4.7% in Yéguérésso. The prevalence of HIV infection was 2.2%. Married women were less exposed to T. vaginalis infection than single women (p=0.03). The prevalence of urogenital trichomonosis obtained was considered lower compared to the previously reported from Burkina Faso. Thus, it is essential to extend this study to the whole country periodically by integrating other STIs not subject to a surveillance system and by integrating molecular epidemiology tools.
阴道滴虫病的流行病学研究,特别是在非洲孕妇中很少见,这是由于缺乏筛查计划所致。本研究旨在评估在 Bobo-Dioulasso 的三个初级保健中心的产前保健诊所就诊的孕妇中阴道毛滴虫感染的流行率及其相关因素。我们于 2015 年 2 月至 4 月期间针对孕妇进行了一项横断面研究,以进行描述性和分析性研究。该研究在 3 个初级公立保健中心进行:Guimbi(中心城市),Bolomakoté(城郊)和 Yéguérésso(农村)。阴道滴虫的滋养体通过显微镜检查阴道拭子和尿液样本进行检查。还收集了社会人口统计学,产科和生物学变量。共有 315 名孕妇被纳入研究。泌尿生殖道滴虫病的总患病率为 3.2%。Guimbi 的患病率为 1.9%,Bolomakoté 的患病率为 2.9%,Yéguérésso 的患病率为 4.7%。艾滋病毒感染的患病率为 2.2%。已婚妇女比单身妇女感染阴道毛滴虫的风险较低(p=0.03)。与以前在布基纳法索报道的情况相比,获得的泌尿生殖道滴虫病的患病率被认为较低。因此,必须通过定期将其他不受监测系统监测的性传播感染纳入并整合分子流行病学工具,将这项研究扩展到全国范围。
