Abstract

Background: Regarding the prevalence of TOXOPLASMOSIS and its known complications during PREGNANCY, the present study was carried out over parturients referring to Shabih Khani hospital in Kashan to determine the anti- Toxoplasma gondii antibody. Materials and methods: 562 pregnant women, aged 17-45 years, have been selected through a simple sampling for this descriptive study. Having the questionnaires filled, 5cc venous blqod was obtained and antibodies were assessed via IFA at dilutions of 1/20 and 1/1 00. Incase of positive results at 1/100 dilution, higher titers were achieved. 1/20 dilution was the cutoff point and titer of ≥1/400 was considered as statistically significant. Results: The incidence of TOXOPLASMOSIS was reported 41.6%. IGM and IGG antibodies were presented in 18.8% and 81.2% of the affected subjects, respectively. 20-30 aged candidates were revealed to have higher involvement (38%). Conclusion: Results have shown high prevalence of TOXOPLASMOSIS in Kashan. Considering the susceptible women and high expenses of serological screening tests, educational programming is highly recommended.
