The present study aimed to determine the risk factors associated with the transmission of intestinal parasites in San José de la Silveira and Santa Lucía. The type of research was field, non-experimental, correlational, cross-sectional cohort using a survey technique that evaluated epidemiological, sociodemographic, clinical, and socioeconomic aspects using a questionnaire applied to 85 people from the communities and the copro parasitological analyses was carried out by direct examination, concentration techniques (Ritchie, Kato-Katz) and Ziehl-Neelsen. Thirteen species of parasites were identified; the results obtained indicated a prevalence of 100% of parasitized individuals, with protozoan infections (99%) being higher than helminth infections (1%). The most prevalent parasite was Blastosystis sp. (96%), followed by Entamoeba coli (65%), Endolimax nana (64%), and Entamoeba hartmanni (31%). Among the pathogenic parasites, Entamoeba histolytica/E. dispar (15%), Giardia duodenalis (13%), and Cryptosporidium sp. (4%). Regarding risk factors, a 2.96-fold probability of Entamoeba coli was determined if the floor of the dwelling was cement, and a 4.813-fold probability of having Blastocystis sp. was determined by having dogs as pets. It is concluded that among the main determinants of transmission of parasitic diseases were those risk factors that help the spread and infection of parasites, such as tap water and food in street stalls. Keywords: intestinal parasites, risk factors, prevalence, protozoa. |
