Light microscopic examination of feces from a human immunodeficiency virus-positive patient with chronic diarrhea, anorexia, and lethargy revealed the presence of numerous refractile bodies resembling microsporidian spores. They were subsequently identified as belonging to the genus Nosema on the basis of their ultrastructural characteristics. However, the microsporidia were enclosed within striated muscle cells, suggesting that they were probably ingested in food; thus, this represented an incidental finding rather than a true infection.
对一名患有慢性腹泻、厌食和嗜睡的人类免疫缺陷病毒阳性患者的粪便进行光学显微镜检查,发现存在许多类似微孢子虫孢子的折光体。随后根据其超微结构特征将它们鉴定为属于 Nosema 属。然而,这些微孢子虫被包裹在横纹肌细胞内,这表明它们可能是在食物中摄入的;因此,这是一个偶然发现而非真正的感染。
