Objective:
To evaluate the effects of the magnetic particle antibody immunoassay (MPAIA), dipstick dye immunoassay (DDIA) and indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), on detecting advanced schistosomiasis.
Methods:
The sera of 224 cases of advanced schistosomiasis were detected by MPAIA, DDIA, and IHA, and the positive rates were compared.
Results:
The positive rates of MPAIA, DDIA and IHA, were 67.14%, 14.29% and 16.52%, respectively,the positive coincidence rate of MPAIA is higher than the one of IHA and DDIA.
Conclusion:
The value of MPAIA is higher than that of DDIA or IHA in screening advanced schistosomiasis.
