We aimed to evaluate the rate of infection by endoparasites amongst rodents in the western regions of Iran to enhance the level of knowledge amongst health authorities in this entity.
This study was conducted in the west and southwest of Kurdistan Province, including the cities of Sanandaj, Marivan, and Sarvabad. The field mission of this work was performed in three seasons' spring, summer, and autumn. The rodents were captured alive and their gastrointestinal tracts were evaluated for the worm endoparasites.
Herein, 208 rodents from 15 types of seven species, including , , , , , , and , were captured. In addition, 67 (32.21%) rodents were infected with endoparasites and 10 types of worms endoparasites, including , spp., , spp., spp., , , spp and other oxiuros were isolated from their gastrointestinal tracts. Most of these parasites (60%) were isolated from their small intestine whereas they were least (10%) found in their stomach and cecum.
Having compared the results of this study with other studies in different regions of Iran, there is a higher variety of rodents and worm parasites in these regions of Iran.
我们旨在评估伊朗西部地区啮齿动物体内内寄生虫的感染率,以提高该地区卫生当局的认知水平。
本研究在库尔德斯坦省的西部和西南部进行,包括萨南达杰、马里万和萨尔瓦巴德等城市。这项工作的实地考察在春季、夏季和秋季三个季节进行。啮齿动物被活捉,并对其胃肠道进行蠕虫内寄生虫评估。
在此,共捕获了来自7个物种15种类型的208只啮齿动物,包括 、 、 、 、 、 和 。此外,67只(32.21%)啮齿动物感染了内寄生虫,从它们的胃肠道中分离出10种蠕虫内寄生虫,包括 、 属、 、 属、 属、 、 、 属和其他尖尾线虫。这些寄生虫大多(60%)从它们的小肠中分离出来,而在胃和盲肠中发现的最少(10%)。
将本研究结果与伊朗不同地区的其他研究进行比较后发现,伊朗这些地区的啮齿动物和蠕虫寄生虫种类更多。
