Improvement of a PCR test to diagnose infection by Mansonella ozzardi
Introduction: Mansonelliasis is caused by Mansonella ozzardi. It is widespread in the Amazon region, with a high prevalence. Te common exam of thick blood smears stained with Giemsa shows low efficacy levels and has been an obstacle to diagnosing individuals with low blood parasitemia. Methods: In o...

It is widespread in the Amazon region, with a high prevalence. Te common exam of thick blood smears stained with Giemsa shows low efficacy levels and has been an obstacle to diagnosing individuals with low blood parasitemia. Methods: In order to increase diagnosis efcacy, the PCR technique was improved. Results and Conclusions: PCR demonstrated the best performance, with sensitivity and negative predictive values (NPV) of 100%, followed by blood fltration through membrane filters, which showed a sensitivity of 88.9% and a NPV of 84.6%, when compared to thick blood smears. 2020-05-07T14:08:25Z 2020-05-07T14:08:25Z 2011 Artigo https://repositorio.inpa.gov.br/handle/1/15158 10.1590/S0037-86822011000300023 pt_BR Volume 44, Número 3, Pags. 380-382 Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazil http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/ application/pdf Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical |
