Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the Plasmodium malaria titre with the body temperature and prog-nosis to provide a theoretical basis for malaria diagnosis and missed diagnosis.Methods Ninety-three malaria test positive speci-mens were collected and simultaneously performed the plasmodium test by using the colloidal gold immune chromatography assay and thick film blood slide.The body temperature of malaria patients was recorded ,and the malaria test was conducted once when the body temperature was increased by 1 ℃ until positive for malaria detection.Results In 93 tested specimens ,the infection rate of Chinese was 56.98% (53/93) ,and which of foreigners was 43.01% (40/93) ,the difference between Chinese and foreigners malaria infection groups had no statistical significance ,showing that malaria infection had no relationship with race.Among 93 specimens , the initial malaria infection was in 48 cases ,including 47 Chinese and 1 foreigner ,and 45 cases had twice or more malaria infection , in which 33 cases had the titers of 1:10 ,with the recurrence rate of 0.09% (3/33) and the re-burning rate was 0.27% (9/33). The titer of 1:20 had 28 cases ,with the recurrence rate 0.04% (1/28) ,and the burning rate 0.21% (6/28).Titer of 1:30 was 19 people ,with the recurrence rate 0.16% (3/19) and the burning rate 0.37% (7/19).The titer of 1:40 was 13 people ,with the re-currence rate 0.15% (2/13) ,and the re-burning rate of 0.38% (5/13) ,there was no statistically significant difference between the number of recurrent and re-burning patients with the titre(χ2 =2.5 ,P>0.05 ;χ2 =1.96 ,P>0.05).Conclusion There is a positive correlation between malaria with the titer and temperature.The titer is elevated ,and the probability of recurrence and re-buring is increased.
