Diarrhea, mostly chronic diarrhea and weight loss are common in patients with AIDS. Cryptosporidium had been identified as responsible for chronic, debilitating secretory diarrhea in HIV infected patients. We performed a retrospective study of the prevalence, clinical features and laboratory findings of cryptosporidiosis in HIV infected patients (adults and children), in the period of 6 years from January 1988 to December 1993 at Bamrasnaradura Hospital in Nonthaburi, Thailand. In this study, Cryptosporidium was found in 22 (8.8%) by detection in stool specimens of 250 HIV infected patients with diarrhea and was found throughout the year. The prevalence rates of cryptosporidiosis in this study among children and adults were 19% and 7.9%, respectively. The common features were chronic diarrhea (84.6%), mostly watery diarrhea and weight loss/malnutrition (100%). A few fecal leukocytes were found in 15.4%.
腹泻，尤其是慢性腹泻和体重减轻在艾滋病患者中很常见。隐孢子虫已被确定为导致HIV感染患者慢性、衰弱性分泌性腹泻的病因。我们对1988年1月至1993年12月期间在泰国暖武里府班拉史纳拉杜拉医院的HIV感染患者（成人和儿童）隐孢子虫病的患病率、临床特征和实验室检查结果进行了一项回顾性研究。在这项研究中，通过对250例有腹泻症状的HIV感染患者的粪便标本进行检测，发现22例（8.8%）感染了隐孢子虫，且全年均有发现。本研究中儿童和成人隐孢子虫病的患病率分别为19%和7.9%。常见症状为慢性腹泻（84.6%），多为水样腹泻，以及体重减轻/营养不良（100%）。15.4%的患者粪便中发现少量白细胞。
