Abstract
The prevalence of intestinal parasitic infestation and anaemic status of adolescent boys (age 10-19 years) of two selected villages, Kutumbopur, Comilla and Gazirchat, Dhaka districts was investigated. Anaemic status was determined by measuring hemoglobin percentage and parasitic infestation was detected and identified under microscope with wet mount and stained preparations. Out of 106 adolescent boys, only two (1.9%) showed severe anaemia. Among the other anaemic status, 50.9% was moderately anaemic, 39.6% mildly anaemic and 7.5% non anaemic. Adolescent boys were infected (49.01%) with one or more type of protozoan and helminth parasites. Both anaemia and parasitic infestation were more prevalent in Gazirchat while compared to Kutumbopur. Parasitic infestation and anaemia was not correlated. Key words: Anaemia, adolescent boys, Ascaris, Trichuris, Entamoeba, Giardia  doi:10.3329/ujzru.v27i0.1957 Univ. j. zool. Rajshahi Univ.

调查了达卡地区库图姆布尔、科米拉和加兹尔查特两个村10-19岁青少年男孩肠道寄生虫感染的流行情况和贫血状况。用血红蛋白百分比测定贫血状态，用湿载和染色制剂在显微镜下检测和鉴定寄生情况。在106名青春期男孩中，只有两名(1.9%)表现出严重贫血。在其他贫血状态中，50.9%为中度贫血，39.6%为轻度贫血，7.5%为非贫血。青春期男孩感染一种或多种原生动物和寄生虫(49.01%)。与库图姆布尔相比，加济尔恰特贫血和寄生虫感染更为普遍。寄生虫感染与贫血无相关性。关键词:贫血，青春期男孩，蛔虫，Trichuris，内阿米巴，贾第鞭毛虫Â doi:10.3329/ujzru.v27i0.1957Rajshahi university .
