PEDIATRICS:寄生虫感染对非洲五岁以下儿童造成的风险更大

调查研究显示,居住在撒哈拉以南非洲的五岁以下儿童比长期患有寄生虫病的年龄稍大的儿童面临着更大的风险。
      
一项研究显示,婴儿更容易接触能够引起慢性疾病血吸虫病的寄生虫。五岁以下的儿童是弱势群体,因为他们会花费更多的时间在河流和湖泊附近,在那里可以感染寄生虫疾病。以往的研究忽视了对离河流较近的家庭住宅中学龄前儿童明显暴露于感染的河水的研究。研究人员发现,学龄前儿童在治疗之前可能遭受长达5年的寄生虫病。目前,抗寄生虫的药物质量管理主要在28个非洲国家。尽管在这些国家中寄生虫感染影响了多达60%的学龄前儿童,但是这个年龄群体并不在任何治疗方案中。研究人员称,目前的血吸虫疫苗的临床试验忽视了学龄前儿童,只针对小学生。他们说这提高了未来的疫苗继续排除年龄群的潜力。血吸虫病影响了全球20000万人,并且在43个非洲国家流行,90%的病例发生在撒哈拉以南的非洲。来自爱丁堡大学的研究人员进行了这项研究,发现在高传播地区小至6个月的婴儿就可以发生感染。
      
Schistosomiasis,俗称血吸虫病,在非洲是仅次于疟疾的影响孩子的寄生虫病。这种疾病由淡水螺传播,影响全身健康,生长,智力发育和未来的生殖健康。爱丁堡研究重申,2010年WHO建议学龄前儿童应该被包括在国家血吸虫病控制项目中,以此来纠正目前的健康不平等。爱丁堡大学和津巴布韦大学的合作研究发表在Pediztrcs上,此项目得到了Thrasher 研究基金的资助。这项研究的领导者Francisca Mutapi博士说:“抗寄生虫药物和学龄前儿童感染的护理以及学前儿童的疾病的诊断应清除剩余的障碍,提供WHO建议血吸虫大规模药物治疗方案。”
“我们必须继续努力提供一个综合性,包容性,可持续发展和全球实施血吸虫病控制项目。”
