Abstract

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that causes toxoplasmosis in humans and warmblooded animals. In this study, we explored the risk factors and seroprevalence of Toxoplasma infection among cancer patients and patients with blood cell disorders in Iran. We collected serum samples from each participant include 600 clinically healthy individuals, 127 patients with different types of cancer, 294 patients with red blood cell disorders, and 101 patients with white blood cell disorders and tested for anti-Toxoplasma antibodies (IgG and IgM) using an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay kits and analyzed the results statistically.Out of the 1122 participants,seroprevalence of Toxoplasmosis among all patients with different disorders, patients with white blood cell disorders, patients with red blood cell disorders and patients with different types of cancer 9.97, 17.82, 11.57 and 7.09 were reported respectiveiy.Awareness campaign to educate blood cell disorders patients regarding contact with pets is salient to the reduction of the Toxoplasma burden. In addition, it is pertinent to screen patients with cancers to rule out Toxoplasma infections. © 2021, Islamic Azad University. All rights reserved.

伊朗癌症和血液病患者弓形虫病的血清学评估、危险因素及与健康人的比较

弓形虫是一种专性细胞内寄生虫，可引起人类和温血动物的弓形虫病。在这项研究中，我们探讨了伊朗癌症患者和血细胞疾病患者弓形虫感染的危险因素和血清流行率。我们收集了每个参与者的血清样本，包括600名临床健康个体、127名不同类型癌症患者、294名红细胞疾病患者和101名白细胞疾病患者，并使用酶联免疫吸附剂检测试剂盒检测抗弓形虫抗体（IgG和IgM），并对结果进行统计分析。在1122名参与者中，报告了所有不同疾病患者、白细胞疾病患者、红细胞疾病患者和不同类型癌症患者的弓形虫血清流行率分别为9.97、17.82、11.57和7.09。开展宣传运动，教育血细胞疾病患者与宠物接触，对减少弓形虫负担具有重要意义。此外，筛查癌症患者以排除弓形虫感染也是有意义的。©2021，伊斯兰阿扎德大学。保留所有权利。
