Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma Gondii, Rubella, and Cytomegalovirus Among Pregnant Refugees and Turkish Women: A Retrospective Comparative Study
Öz: Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii, rubella, and cytomegalovirus(CMV) among pregnant Turkish women as well as Syrian refugees in Istanbul.Methods: Among pregnant women who were admitted to the Ümraniye Maternity andChildren Hospital in İstanbul between January 2014 and January 2015, antibodies against T.gondii, rubella, and CMV were measured using the micro-ELISA method. The test resultswere evaluated retrospectively.Results: Out of a total of 1066 pregnant women screened in the present study, 963 (90.3%)were Turkish, and 103 (9.7%) were Syrian refugees. IgM positivity rates of T. gondii, rubella,and CMV were determined as 0.2%, 0%, and 0.2% in Turkish women and 0.1%, 0%, and 0%in Syrian refugees, whereas IgG positivity rates were determined as 26.3%, 93.8%, and 99.5%in Turkish women and 58.3%, 87.4%, and 100% in Syrian refugees. The seroprevalence of T.gondii was lower, and rubella was higher among pregnant Turkish women and among pregnant Syrian refugees and statistically significant (p<0.05).Conclusion: Since immunity against T. gondii in pregnant Turkish women is lower thanthat in Syrian refugees who are in the reproductive age group, routine screening should beconducted. Immunization against rubella should be considered for Syrian refugees who arein the reproductive age group
Anahtar Kelime: Türk ve Mülteci Gebeler Arasındaki Toxoplasma Gondii, Rubella ve Sitomegalovirus Seroprevalansı: Geriye Dönük Karşılaştırmalı Bir Çalışma
Öz: Amaç: İstanbul’daki Suriyeli mülteciler ve Türk gebeler arasındaki Toxoplasma gondii, rubella ve sitomegalovirüs (CMV) prevalansını değerlendirmek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Ocak 2014–Ocak 2015 tarihleri arasında Ümraniye Kadın Doğum ve Çocuk Hastalıkları Hastanesi’ne başvuran gebeler arasında Toxoplasma gondii, kızamıkçık ve CMV’ye karşı antikorlar mikro-elisa yöntemi ile ölçüldü. Test sonuçları geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Bu çalışmada taranan toplam 1066 gebeden 963’ü (%90.3) Türk, 103’ü (%9.7) Suriyeli mülteci idi. T. gondii, rubella and CMV Ig M pozitiflik oranları Türk gebelerde sırasıyla %0.2, %0, %0.2, Suriyeli mültecilerde ise %0.1, %0, %0, IgG pozitiflik oranları ise Türk gebelerde %26.3, %93.8, %99.5, Suriyeli gebelerde %58.3, %87.4, %100 saptandı. Türk gebelerde T. gondii seroprevalansı Suriyeli sığınmacı gebelerden anlamlı olarak düşük, rubella seroprevalansı ise anlamlı olarak yüksek bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Bölgemizde, göç ve savaşlar nedeniyle toplumsal profil yanında gebeler gibi özel gruplarda da değişimler yaşanmaktadır. Türk gebelerde T. gondii’ye karşı bağışıklık oranının düşük olması nedeniyle Türk gebelerde bu hastalık için rutin tarama, doğurganlık çağındaki Suriyeli sığınmacılara ise rubella için bağışıklama yapılması düşünülebilir.
