An experiment was carried out to test the hypothesis that chickens previously infected with Eimeria acervulina, but having ceased producing oocysts, recommence E acervulina oocyst production when infected with Plasmodium gallinaceum. No relapse of coccidiosis was caused by the malarial infection. Subsequent treatment with the immunosuppressant betamethasone of the control chicks infected with E acervulina only did not reveal any occult coccidial infection. The results are critically compared with previously published results which apparently supported the hypothesis.
进行了一项实验，以检验以下假设：先前感染了堆型艾美耳球虫但已停止产生卵囊的鸡，在感染鸡疟原虫时会重新开始产生堆型艾美耳球虫卵囊。疟疾感染并未引起球虫病复发。随后仅对感染堆型艾美耳球虫的对照雏鸡用免疫抑制剂倍他米松进行治疗，未发现任何隐匿性球虫感染。将这些结果与先前发表的显然支持该假设的结果进行了批判性比较。
