The study investigated the infection level and behavioural factors exposing rural inhabitants to urogenital schistosomiasis in Takum Local Government Area, Taraba State, Nigeria. Filtration technique determined Schistosoma haematobium eggs from urine samples. Questionnaires collected socio-demographic characteristics and ponds/rivers/streams’ behavioural attitudes of participants. An infection of 41.1% was found. Sufa significantly had the highest infection (62.5%) (χ2 = 32.34, p = 0.001) as well as the age groups 1–10 years (47.2%) and 11–20 years (49.6%) (χ2 = 33.83, p = 0.001). Participants with non-formal education and farmers, respectively, had higher infection (45.7%) (χ2 = 12.08, p = 0.001) and (48.5%) (χ2 = 5.42, p = 0.020). Inhabitants who played in ponds/rivers/streams during dry season as well as those with non-formal education and farmers were more predisposed to infection with respective crude odds ratio (cOR) of 0.92 (%95CI: 0.81–1.50; p = 0.043), 0.55 (%95CI: 0.38–0.77; p = 0.001) and 0.80 (%95CI: 0.33–1.41; p = 0.002). Inhabitants were infected according to their wards as well as their age groups, education level, occupation level and behavioural activities. The federal and state governments should embark on public health education and control of the disease.

作为尼日利亚塔拉巴州南部农村居民泌尿生殖系统血吸虫病暴露源的河流和池塘水的综合控制

该研究调查了尼日利亚塔拉巴州塔库姆地方政府区域农村居民感染泌尿生殖系统血吸虫病的感染水平和行为因素。过滤技术从尿液样本中确定了血吸虫虫卵。问卷收集了参与者的社会人口特征和池塘/河流/溪流的行为态度。发现感染率为 41.1%。Sufa 感染率最高 (62.5%) ( χ 2 = 32.34, p = 0.001) 以及 1-10 岁 (47.2%) 和 11-20 岁 (49.6%) ( χ 2 = 33.83, p = 0.001)。受过非正规教育的参与者和农民的感染率分别较高(45.7%)(χ 2 = 12.08, p = 0.001) 和 (48.5%) ( χ 2 = 5.42, p = 0.020)。在旱季在池塘/河流/溪流中玩耍的居民以及受过非正规教育的居民和农民更容易感染,各自的粗比值比 (cOR) 为 0.92 (%95CI: 0.81–1.50; p = 0.043) , 0.55 (%95CI: 0.38–0.77; p = 0.001) 和 0.80 (%95CI: 0.33–1.41; p = 0.002)。居民被感染的依据是他们所在的病房以及他们的年龄组别、文化程度、职业水平和行为活动。联邦和州政府应着手开展公共卫生教育和疾病控制。
