摘要

背景：肠道寄生虫感染是全球性的健康负担，在尼日利亚儿童中发病率很高。防治工作仍在继续。地理信息系统为解决从农业到应急规划和控制等各种现实任务做出了巨大贡献。因此，本研究旨在绘制尼日利亚南部社区的肠道寄生虫地理图，以确定感染风险区域。方法：采用横断面调查和聚类随机抽样方法。采用直接湿装载法和正规乙醚浓缩法对样本进行分析。进行了地质统计分析，以确定这些寄生虫的空间分布。结果：该社区肠道寄生虫的总体流行率为 23.95%，已确定的寄生虫有蛔虫 45（7.23%），组织溶解恩塔米巴虫 31（4.98%），盘尾丝虫 13（2.09%），蓝氏加德虫 12（1.93%），钩虫 11（1.77%），毛滴虫 10（1.61%），曼氏血吸虫 9（1.45%）和潜蝇 4（0.64%）。寄生虫的分布和强度表明，博卢-奥鲁阿、通博和奥加拉瓦社区的肠道寄生虫感染率较高，急需采取干预措施。Sagbama、Aguru、Toru-Orua 到 Toru-Eden 的部分地区肠道寄生虫感染率中等。结论：为每种寄生虫绘制了感染地图，这些社区肠道寄生虫空间分布的可视化揭示了健康风险区域。这将有助于合理利用有限的资源来控制和预防这些寄生虫。

Geo-Mapping of Intestinal Parasitic Infection in a Southern Community in Nigeria

BACKGROUND: Intestinal parasitic infection constitutes a global health burden; it has a high prevalence among children in Nigeria. The quest for control is still ongoing. Geographical Information Systems have contributed significantly to solving sundry real-world tasks, from agriculture to emergency planning and control. Therefore, this study was aimed at geo-mapping of intestinal parasites in a Southern community in Nigeria to identify the infection risk areas. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey and clustered random sampling method were used. Samples were analyzed by direct wet mount and formal ether concentration methods. Geostatistical analyses were done to determine the spatial distribution of these parasites. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of intestinal parasite in the community was 23.95% and parasites identified were: Ascaris lumbricoides 45(7.23%), Entamoeba histolytica 31(4.98%), Strongyloides stercoralis 13(2.09%), Gardia lambla 12(1.93%), Hookworm 11(1.77%), Trichuris trichiura 10(1.61%), Schistosoma mansoni 9(1.45%) and Diphyllobothrium latum 4(0.64%). The distribution and intensity of the parasites showed that Bolu-Orua, Tungbo, and Ogalawa communities had higher intestinal parasitic infection rates and needs urgent interventions. Part of Sagbama, Aguru, Toru-Orua to Toru-Eden had a moderate intestinal parasitic infection. CONCLUSION: An infection map was produced for each parasite, and visualizing the spatial distribution of intestinal parasites in these communities brings to bare health risk areas. It will help in the proper application of limited resources in the control and prevention of these parasites.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
