Abstract
O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a prevalência de parasitos intestinais na etnia Maxakali em Minas Gerais, Brasil. Os exames parasitológico das fezes foram realizados através da técnica TF-Test, sendo as amostras fecais coletadas em três dias alternados, em tubos independentes, contendo formol a 10%, unificados para dupla filtragem por centrifugação. Triplicatas de uma alíquota do sedimento foram examinadas em microscópio (10x e 40x) para identificação de ovos, cistos e larvas. A prevalência de parasitos (89,5%) e do poliparasitismo (46%) foi semelhante quanto ao sexo e idade, e variou entre as aldeias. As espécies prevalentes foram: Entamoeba histolytica/Entamoeba dispar (48,9%), Giardia duodenalis (32%), Entamoeba coli (40,8%), Endolimax nana (10,3%), ancilostomídeos (37,9%), Schistosoma mansoni (23,7%), Hymenolepis nana (18,6%), Strongyloides stercoralis (5,4%), Ascaris lumbricoides (4,9%) e Trichuris trichiura (0,5%). Os Maxakali vivem em condições de vulnerabilidade social, e medidas de infraestrutura e de educação em saúde necessitam ser implementadas pelas instituições governamentais.
El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la prevalencia de parásitos intestinales en la etnia Maxakali. Los exámenes parasitológicos de las heces se realizaron a través de la técnica TF-Test, las muestras fecales se recogieron en tres días alternados, en tubos independientes, conteniendo formol a un 10%, unificados para un doble filtrado por centrifugación. Triplicados de una alícuota del sedimento se examinaron en microscopio (10x y 40x) para la identificación de huevos, quistes y larvas. La prevalencia de parásitos (89,5%) y del poliparasitismo (46%) fue semejante en cuanto al sexo y edad, y varió entre las aldeas. Las especies prevalentes fueron: Entamoeba histolytica/Entamoeba dispar (48,9%), Giardia duodenalis (32%), Entamoeba coli (40,8%), Endolimax nana (10,3%), ancilostomídeos (37,9%), Schistosoma mansoni (23,7%), Hymenolepis nana (18,6%), Strongyloides stercoralis (5,4%), Ascaris lumbricoides (4,9%) y Trichuris trichiura (0,5%). Los Maxakali viven en condiciones de vulnerabilidad social, y medidas de infraestructura y de educación en salud necesitan ser implementadas por instituciones gubernamentales.
A prevalence survey using the TF-Test technique to identify intestinal parasites was conducted in the Maxakali indigenous villages in Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Stool samples were collected on three alternating days, in separate tubes, containing 10% formalin, and unified in a laboratory by double filtering centrifugation. Samples of sediment aliquot were prepared in triplicate and examined by microscope (10x and 40x) for eggs, cysts, and larvae. Prevalence of parasites (89.5%) and polyparasitism (46%) were similar by sex and age, but varied by village. Prevalent species were: Entamoeba histolytica/Entamoeba dispar (48.9%), Giardia duodenalis (32%), Entamoeba coli (40.8%), Endolimax nana (10.3%), hookworms (37.9%), Schistosoma mansoni (23.7%), Hymenolepis nana (18.6%), Strongyloides stercoralis (5.4%), Ascaris lumbricoides (4.9%), and Trichuris trichiura (0.5%). The Maxakali population lives in socially vulnerable conditions, and government agencies need to introduce measures to improve sanitation infrastructure and health education.
