Sociomedical importance of intestinal parasitic diseases in the pediatric population of Azerbaijan
Abstract
The performed investigations established that children with intestinal parasitic diseases were more prone to various diseases than those without the latter. In particular, in the last 2 years, there was a total of 78,2+1,5% and 36,4+2,0 cases in the former and the latter, respectively (г=16,72; /КО,001). Overall, an average of 0,78+0,11 cases was per child with intestinal parasitic diseases with 2,82+0,07 absences from school. Intestinal parasitic diseases are an urgent sociomedical problem that is primarily due to high mortality rates in children, to lower academic achievements and physical activity.
