Evaluation of Intestinal Parasites in Patients with Chronic Disease
Öz
Objective: Parasitic diseases concern all segments of society, especially children in the growing age. Intestinal parasites not only cause mental and physical development retardation, but also cause loss of work force with the complaints they cause, negatively affecting both physical and mental health and the country's economy. In this study, we aimed to evaluate intestinal parasites in patients with chronic diseases.
Methods: The files of patients who applied to the internal medicine outpatient clinic between 01.01.2022 and 31.12.2022 and underwent direct stool microscopy in the Parasitology Laboratory of Ordu University Medical Faculty were retrospectively scanned. The patients were divided into 2 groups as those with chronic disease and those without chronic disease. As a chronic disease; Diabetes Mellitus, hypertension, chronic heart disease, chronic heart failure, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, other chronic lung diseases, chronic kidney failure, chronic liver failure, goiter diseases, rheumatic diseases were taken as. Socio-demographic characteristics of the patients such as age, gender, educational status, economic status and marital status, and stool microscopic examinations were recorded.
Results: 385 patients were evaluated in the study. It consisted of 281 female and 104 male patients. 209 patients with chronic disease were identified. There is a significant relationship between age, marital and educational status and chronic diseases in the comparison of those with and without chronic disease according to their socio-demographic characteristics (P<0.005).
Conclusion: There was no significant difference between those with and without chronic disease in terms of intestinal parasites. However, it has been suggested that controlled studies are needed by increasing the number of patients in the patient groups.
