In a cross-sectional analysis of 354 Ugandan children (age 12-48 months) infected with Schistosoma mansoni, we assessed relationships between infection intensity and nutritional morbidities. Higher intensity was associated with an increased risk for anemia (RR = 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.10) yet not associated with risk for underweight, stunting, or wasting.
在一项对354名感染曼氏血吸虫的乌干达儿童(年龄12 - 48个月)的横断面分析中,我们评估了感染强度与营养性疾病之间的关系。较高的感染强度与贫血风险增加相关(相对风险 = 1.05,95%置信区间[CI] 1.01 - 1.10),但与体重不足、发育迟缓或消瘦风险无关。
