| dc.description.abstract | Survey was focused exclusively on human excreta and sera for microsporidium and hepatitis- B.The immune profile was determined ofHIV-Y individuals in Benue State. Intestinal epithelium was the most prevalent site of human microsporidium infection, 54 (4:2%) were infected in both ' sexes. Enterocylozoon bieneusi was most prevalent in Makiirdi with no significant relevance in the spread of microsporidium species among a cohort population study (r=0.79 >0.60, df-9). Urinary tract microsporidiosis appears in 31(2.4%)) patients• with Encephalitozoon cuniculi although, many-persons during these findings do not have symptoms referable to the urogenital route and 9(1:3%) were HBsAg-V with no significant difference since r-0.76>0.75, df-6. Stools were loose to watery and co- infected with laboratory evidence for intestinal microsporidium in 1(0.5%) with T-cells < 80 cell7pi. However, sexual transmission of microsporidiosis cannot be excluded. Therefore, the clinical spectrum of the disease should be tied to thorough laboratory investigation and strict hygienic condition should be maintained. | en_US |
