This hospital-based cross-sectional study was aimed to determine seropositivity and assess potential risk factors for Toxoplasma gondii infection among pregnant women, attending Dongola Obstetrics and Gynecology hospital, Northern, Sudan. We enrolled 352 participants in the study and they were interviewed by using structured questionnaire. Serological evidence of toxoplasmosis was conducted by ELISA, and overall seroprevalence was found (61%). Age groups, residence, education level, occupation, gestation period, history of abortion, stillbirth, eating raw/under cooked meat, vegetables and contact with cats revealed significant effects on seropositivity for toxoplasmosis. Considering, the relatively high prevalence as revealed by this study, it would be important to draw the attention of the public health authorities to conduct programme especially among pregnant women. |
