精神病患者弓形虫感染情况调查

Investigation on infection status of toxoplasma gondii among psychopath

目的调查精神病患者的弓形虫感染情况,探讨弓形虫感染与精神病之间的关系。方法采用ELISA法检测精神病患者血清的弓形虫IgG抗体、弓形虫IgM抗体和弓形虫循环抗原(CAg)。结果 196例精神病患者中检出弓形虫感染阳性29例,阳性率为14.80%;不同性别、不同年龄组及不同类型精神病患者间差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论贵州省部分地区精神病患者中弓形虫感染率高于全国正常人群水平,弓形虫感染是否精神疾患的病因之一尚难确定。
