Relationship between Intestinal Parasite Infection and Anemic Patients
B. L. Chaudhary | Charu Chandra [2]
Abstract: Background: We wanted to investigate the relationship between intestinal parasitic infection and anaemic patients. Methods: stool samples were examined for Protozoa and Helminths infection by routine microscopy and blood samples were performed using the electronic cell counter Coulter. Results: Out of 592 samples 277 (46.79 %) were positive among them Entamoeba histolytica 80 (28 %), Ancylostoma duodenale 66 (23.82 %), Ascaris lumbricoides 55 (19.85 %), Giardia lamblia 53 (19.13 %) and Trichuris trichiura 23 (8.30 %). Along this finding 55 (19.85 %) were anaemic caused by Ancylostoma duodenale 30 (54.54 %), Ascaris lumbricoides 10 (18.18 %), Entamoeba histolytica 7 (12.72 %), Giardia lamblia 6 (10.9 %) and Trichuris trichiura 2 (3.63 %) Conclusion: We found that 19.85 % anaemic among intestinal parasitic infections conferred an increased risk of health, suggesting common pattern of infection is not clinically benign and thus, should not be ignored.
