Abstract

 Background: TOXOPLASMA GONDII is an obligate intracellular parasite that causes TOXOPLASMOSIS. T. gondii can cause serious pathological effects in the fetus of infected women.Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the SEROPREVALENCE of anti-Toxoplasma IgG and IgM among PREGNANT WOMEN of SHUSH county, southwest of IRAN.Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 276 PREGNANT WOMEN. IgG and IgM antibodies of T. gondii were measured by the Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test. SPSS version 21 statistical software was used for data analysis and Chi-square test for significant differences.Results: Of 276 women, 85 (30.8%) and 2 (0.7%) were positive for IgG and IgM, respectively. Of 146 urban women, 43 (29.5%) were positive for IgG and of 130 rural women, 42 (32.3%) were positive for IgG. There was no significant difference between rural and urban women for IgG antibody (P>0.05). Also, 2 (1.4%) out of 146 urban women were positive for IgM. All of the 130 rural women were negative for IgM. No significant difference was found between rural and urban women for IgM antibody (P>0.05).Conclusions: The findings indicated there is a relatively high prevalence of T. gondii in the study PREGNANT WOMEN. Therefore, evaluation ofT. gondii before marriage and pregnancy is important for women and the health authorities of SHUSH County must pay more attention to control and prevention of the transmission of the parasite to individuals.
