Prevalence of IgG and IgM Anti-Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies in HIV Positive Patients in Northeast of Iran
Background and Objectives: Toxoplasmosis has become one of the more frequent opportunistic infections and the most common cause of focal brain lesions complicating the course of AIDS. However, there is a little information about the frequency of the toxoplasmosis in various regions of Iran. At the present study, we evaluated the prevalence of toxoplasmosis in patients with AIDS in Mashhasd (...
متن کاملAnalytical validation of anti-toxoplasma IgG immunoassays.
There are often discrepancies when using different methods to measure anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG levels in patient samples. The diagnostic performance of a chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) and an enzyme-linked fluorescent assay (ELFA) used as confirmatory tests for samples identified as positive or equivocal by an electrochemiluminescent immunoassay (ECLIA) were examined. Cut-off values were...
متن کاملPrevalence of IgG antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii among Syrian females of childbearing age.
Despite the prevalence of seronegativity against Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) (73.3%) is apparently high in Barah’s study,1 I presume that that is not the actual prevalence. This is partially attributed to some limitations addressed by Barah.1 It is well-know that the precision of any study data depends among other factors, upon the response rate of the participants. The response rate in Barah...
متن کاملPrevalence of IgG antibodies specific to Toxoplasma gondii among blood donors in Recife, Northeast Brazil.
A serological survey of Toxoplasma gondii infection in blood donors was carried out in order to identify seroprevalence in Recife, Brazil. Sera from 160 individuals (119 male and 41 female) were evaluated by using a Toxoplasma IgG-antibody enzyme immunoassay (Denka Seiken Co., LTD., Tokyo, Japan). The seropositive percentual for males (79.0%) showed to be higher (p < 0.05) than for females (63....
متن کاملThe prevalence and avidity of Toxoplasma gondii IgG antibodies in pigs from Brazil and Peru.
Raw or inadequately cooked pork is an important source of Toxoplasma gondii infection, and the infection rate in animals used as human food, is an important risk predictor. The prevalence of this infection was estimated in 396 sera from 5-month old pigs obtained at abattoirs in São Paulo, Brazil (300) and Lima, Peru (96). The seroprevalence was higher in pigs from Peru (32.3%) as compared to Br...
