dc.description.abstract | We compare results of one Bell and one Kato-Katz examination performed on each of 315 stool specimens from residents in an area in north-eastern Brazil endemic for schistosomiasis mansoni. The prevalence of schistosome infection detected by the Bell technique was 76% and by the Kato-Katz technique was 63%. 81% (44/54) of the infections missed by a Kato-Katz smear were light infections (one to 50 epg range by Bell e xamination). Over-all, 55% (44/80) of stools in this egg count range by the Bell technique were negative xn a single-Kat&Katz smear. T-his implies that five Kato-Katz smears per stool would ensure a 95% probability (O-55’ x 100) of detecting such light infections. However, a single Kato-Katz smear detected eggs in 97% (124/128) of stools with a Bell count >l&>pg. For ‘stools &sitive by both methods the egg counts per gram of stool were higher (p<O*001) by Kato-Katz examination. Geometric mean egg counts for the infected population were 199 epg by the Kato-Katz and 92 epg by the Bell methods. 64% (59 v. 36) more persons were classified as heavily infected (>4OOepg) by the Kato-Katz method than by the Bell method. The differing measurements of schistosome infection obtained with the Bell and Kato-Katz methods must be considered when comparing data on morbidity-infection relationships. | pt_BR |
