Title

SEROPREVALENCE OF HUMAN FASCIOLOSIS IN PIRABAD, LORESTAN PROVINCE, WESTERN IRAN

Pages

  24-29

Abstract

 Background: The purpose of this study was to perform seroepidemiological investigation for determining the status of human FASCIOLOSIS in Pirabad Village, Lorestan Province, western IRAN.Methods: Blood samples were taken from residents of the village including 801 individuals. Sera were separated and stored at -20oC until used. The samples were analyzed using ELISA.Results: Anti-Fasciola antibodies were detected in 6 (0.7%) individuals. Difference between age, sex and drinking or swimming in the surface water with seropositivity to FASCIOLOSIS was not significant. Out of 7 shepherds, 1 (14.3%) was seropositive. Due to the small number of shepherds, comprehensive statistical inference in this regard cannot be done. Significant difference was detected between seropositivity to FASCIOLOSIS and consuming local FRESHWATER VEGETABLEs during the last 6 months (P=0.001).Conclusion: Metacercariae carrying local freshwater plants might be the main source of contamination because consumption of these kinds of vegetables was confirmed by all participants. Awareness of local communities regarding the danger of freshwater plant consumption, through health education programs, will decrease the risk of infection.
