摘要

导言:在埃塞俄比亚,疟疾是主要的公共卫生和社会经济问题之一,尽管该国已做出巨大努力。目前,该国已制定了到 2030 年消除疟疾的计划。为了实现这一计划,必须对疟疾流行率与性别、年龄组、物种类型和季节进行相关的流行病学研究。因此,本研究旨在评估 2013 年至 2021 年埃塞俄比亚西北部亚的斯亚贝巴泽门镇的疟疾流行情况:这项回顾性研究利用政府卫生机构实验室日志中记录的血涂片报告,对过去九年的疟疾流行趋势进行了评估。研究人员比较了疟疾病例的变化趋势以及不同性别、年龄组、种类和季节的比例。数据使用 SPSS-23 软件包进行分析:结果:2013 年至 2021 年间,疟疾的总体发病率为 10.4%。在所有确诊病例中,2018 年(2%)和 2016 年(33.2%)分别记录了疟疾病例的最低和最高流行率。男性的感染率(59.3%)明显高于女性(40.7%)(p 结论):总之,研究表明,疟疾传播率仍然很高,男性比女性更容易感染,而且可能会影响到育龄人群。尽管恶性疟原虫是最常见的疟原虫,但在所有审查月份和年份中都发现了两种最重要的疟原虫。因此,可以通过使用以季节为基础的长效驱虫蚊帐、定期监督正在进行的灌溉活动、监督谢尼河水位的降低、健康教育以及为病人提供及时治疗来缓解这一问题。

Blood smears examination and prevalence of malaria in Addis Zemen Town, Northwest Ethiopia (2013-2021): a retrospective study.

Introduction: In Ethiopia, malaria is one of the major public health and socioeconomic problems, though tremendous efforts have been made. Currently, the country has a plan to eliminate malaria by 2030. To achieve this plan, epidemiological studies associated with malaria prevalence with gender, age groups, species types, and seasons are essential. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of malaria from 2013 to 2021 in Addis Zemen town, Northwest Ethiopia.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at assess the trend of malaria prevalence over the last nine years using recorded blood smear reports in the laboratory logbook from governmental health institutions. Trends in malaria cases and the proportion of genders, age groups, species, and seasons over time were compared. The data were analyzed using the SPSS-23 software package.

Results: The overall malaria prevalence between 2013 and 2021 was 10.4%. From all confirmed cases, the minimum and maximum prevalence of malaria cases were recorded in 2018 (2%) and 2016 (33.2%) years, respectively. The infectious rate of males (59.3%) was significantly higher than that of females (40.7%) (p < 0.0001). In all survey periods, all age groups were infected by malaria parasites; the majority of the cases were between 15 and 45 years (57%) older than others. Statistically, a greater proportion of P. falciparum (80.1%) was recorded than P. vivax (18.5%) (p < 0.0001). Malaria cases were occurring throughout each month. The relative highest peaks of total malaria cases were observed during the months of September, October, and November. Seasonally, the highest infection rate was observed during spring (40.20%) compared to other seasons.

Conclusions: In conclusion, the study revealed that malaria transmission remained high, which affected males more than females and potentially reproductive ages. Two of the most important Plasmodium species were identified and found during all reviewed months and years, though P. falciparum was the most prevalent. Hence, the problem can be alleviated by using season-based long-lasting insecticide treated nets, regularly overseeing ongoing irrigation activity, overseeing the reduction of the water level of the Sheni River, health education, and providing immediate patient treatment.

期刊介绍: Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines is an open access journal that considers basic, translational and applied research, as well as reviews and commentary, related to the prevention and management of healthcare and diseases in international travelers. Given the changes in demographic trends of travelers globally, as well as the epidemiological transitions which many countries are experiencing, the journal considers non-infectious problems including chronic disease among target populations of interest as well as infectious diseases.
