班氏丝虫病是热带和亚热带国家主要的淋巴丝虫病,按临床表现分为4期:微丝蚴出现前期、微丝蚴血症期、急性发作期(淋巴管腺炎,ADL)和慢性期。有关微丝蚴血症和慢性丝虫病的流行病学研究已有报道,而有关急性发作期的研究则很少。为此,作者对印度南部泰米尔纳德邦2个村班氏丝虫病急性发作的发生率频次、病程、人群及季节分布进行了调查,以了解其流行病学特征,为采取有效的控制措施提供依据。

According to clinical manifestations, it is divided into four stages: pre-microfilariae, microfilariae, acute exacerbation (ADL) and Chronic phase.

To this end, the authors investigated the frequency, duration, population, and seasonality of the frequency of acute filariasis outbreaks in two villages of Tamil Nadu, southern India, in order to understand their epidemiological characteristics and to provide effective control Measures provide the basis.
