The objective of this study was to estimate the seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection in 394 patients of intensive care unit (ICU) in a hospital between April 2010 and March 2012 and analyze the association between T.
gondii infection and ICU patients according to the species of disease.
Toxoplasma serology was evaluated by ELISA method using a commercially available kit.
Data of patients were obtained from the patients, informants, and medical examination records.
Seventy-four (18.78%) of 394 patients were positive for anti-T.
gondii IgG antibodies demonstrating latent infection.
Of these, the highest T.
gondii seroprevalence was found in the age group of 31–45 years (27.45%), and the lowest was found in the age group of <30 years (12.5%).
In addition, females (21.6%) had a higher seroprevalence than males (18.36%).
With respect to the species of disease, the patients with kidney diseases (57.14%), lung diseases (27.84%), and brain diseases (24%) had high T.
gondii seroprevalence.
The present study represents the first survey of T.
gondii seroprevalence in ICU patients in China, revealing an 18.78% seropositivity.
Considering the particularities of ICU patients, molecular identification, genetic characterization, and diagnosis of T.
gondii should be considered in future study.
