Abstract:
The comparison of blood eosinophil counts and stool parasites in two groups of patients--twenty one suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and twenty one from other various diseases--did not show any significant difference in favour of a parasitological etiology in rheumatoid arthritis, an hypothesis which had to be considered because of the efficacy of levamisole in the treatment of this disease.
