Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii among pregnant women admitted to an university hospital

Abstract

Aim: Toxoplasmosis is a zoonosis caused by the obligate intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii, which infects warm-blooded animals, including human beings. In this study, we aimed to determine the seroprevalence of T. gondii among pregnant women admitted to an university hospital in Rize. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, 1046 pregnant women admitted to our obstetric outpatient clinic between 31.07.2009 and 01.08.2014, were investigated for anti-T. gondii IgM antibody and 325 pregnant women were investigated for anti-T. gondii IgG antibody. Results: Anti-T. gondii IgG results of the patients were found as negative in 55,5%, gray zone in 3,4% and positive in 41,1%. Anti-T. gondii IgM results of the patients were 94,6% negative, 1,1% gray zone and 4,3% positive. Conclusion: The seropositivity of T. gondii is slightly higher among pregnant women in our city than other cities. We think that it is important and necessary to give education to pregnant and fertile women about protection ways of this infection.
