The Prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. in Children, Taiz District, Yemen |
|
| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Background: This is the first work done on cryptosporidiosis among the children in Taiz, Yemen. Methods: A number of 712 samples were collected from children of different ages (ranging from 1 month to 12 years) from Dec 2006 to Aug 2007. The collected samples were examined by Sheather's sugar floatation and Modified Ziehl- Neelsen stain as well as ELISA methods. The test results were statistically analyzed by SPSS software. Results: The overall positive percentage was 43.7%. The higher incidence (36.2 %) was occurred in males while the lowest incidence (32.7 %) was observed in females (r= 0.876; P= 0.001). The correlation between infected cases and the type of drinking water was r =0.121. Among the cases examined by ELISA (92 cases), 26.1 % were infected. The correlation between seropositivity and gender was r= 0.652 (P=0.031). Conclusion: Cryptosporidium spp. is a significant pathogen among children at Taiz. Fresh water supplies, education, eating habits and domestic animals are considered the main sources for transmission of cryptosporidiosis. |
