초록

The aim of the present study was to find out the number of students with enterobiasis and/or taeniasis in primary schools of Sivas. Among the 2,029 students in 6 primary schools, $316(15.6\%)$ were positive to Enterobius vermicularis eggs and $32(1.6\%)$ were positive to Taenia spp. eggs by the cellophane tape method. The egg positive rates of E. vermicularis and Taenia spp. ranged from $9.4\%\;to\;27.2\%\;and\;from\;0.8\%\;to\; 2.6\%$ respectively among six schools. The egg positive rate of E. vermicularis was found to be significantly different among these schools $(X^2=31.96,\;P<0.05)$, whereas there was no significant difference between the schools for Taenia spp. $(X^2=4.37;\;P>0.05)$. The rate $(18.7\%)$ of E. vermicularis in the urban slum regions was higher than the rate $(11.5\%)$ in the urban central regions $(X^2=19.20\;P<0.05)$. Above results demonstrate that the egg positive rate of E. vermicularis and Taenia spp. was still prevalent among primary school children.
