Cysticercosis Antibody

Refers to the specific antibodies produced by the cysticercosis infection of the body. The detection methods include indirect hemagglutination test, latex agglutination test, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Basic Information Specialist classification: inspection classification: immune examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Normal value: no Above normal: negative: Normal: Indirect hemagglutination test: serum agglutination titer is less than 1:8; cerebrospinal fluid agglutination titer is less than 1:2. Latex agglutination test: negative. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay: negative (P/N less than 2.1). Positive: Abnormality: ELISA positive for ELISA can be diagnosed as porcine cysticercosis, the positive rate is 98%, and there is no cross-reaction with the serum of patients with parasitic diseases such as schistosomiasis, trichinosis, toxoplasmosis and amoeba. It shows that both sensitivity and specificity are good. Indirect hemagglutination test to detect cerebrospinal fluid or serum antibody titer is greater than the upper limit of the reference serum, can be diagnosed as cerebral cysticercosis, the positive rate is 78% to 91.4%. Tips: Do not eat too greasy, high-protein foods the day before the blood draw, avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. Normal value Indirect hemagglutination test serum agglutination titer is less than 1:8; cerebrospinal fluid agglutination titer is less than 1:2. The latex agglutination test was negative. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was negative (P/N less than 2.1). Clinical significance The positive rate of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay can be diagnosed as porcine cysticercosis, the positive rate is 98%, and there is no cross-reaction with the serum of patients with parasitic diseases such as schistosomiasis, trichinosis, toxoplasmosis and amoeba, indicating sensitivity. Both are excellent in specificity. Indirect hemagglutination test to detect cerebrospinal fluid or serum antibody titer is greater than the upper limit of the reference serum, can be diagnosed as cerebral cysticercosis, the positive rate is 78% to 91.4%. Positive results may be diseases: cerebral cysticercosis, cercaria dermatitis, schistosomiasis precautions First, the precautions before blood draw 1, do not eat too greasy, high-protein food the day before the blood, to avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. 2. After 8 pm on the day before the physical examination, fasting should be done to avoid affecting the detection of indicators such as blood glucose in the second sky. 3, should relax when taking blood, to avoid the contraction of blood vessels caused by fear, increase the difficulty of blood collection. If you have a history of fainting blood, please explain in advance and make special arrangements. Second, should pay attention after blood draw 1. After blood is drawn, local compression is required at the pinhole for 3-5 minutes to stop bleeding. Note: Do not rub, so as not to cause subcutaneous hematoma. 2, the pressing time should be sufficient. There is a difference in clotting time for each person, and some people need a little longer to clotting. Therefore, when the surface of the skin appears to be bleeding, the compression is stopped immediately, and the blood may be infiltrated into the skin due to incomplete hemostasis. Therefore, the compression time is longer to completely stop bleeding. If there is a tendency to bleed, the compression time should be extended. 3, after the blood draw symptoms of dizziness, such as: dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, etc. should immediately lie down, drink a small amount of sugar water, and then undergo a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved. 4. If there is localized congestion, use a warm towel after 24 hours to promote absorption. Inspection process An ELISA procedure was used. Not suitable for the crowd People with reduced hematopoietic function such as leukemia, various anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or people with thrombocytopenia should pay attention to blood draw, and should not take more or more blood. Adverse reactions and risks 1. After the blood is drawn, do not press the needle hole to avoid subcutaneous hematoma. If there is a small piece of bruise in the blood, it is slightly tender, please don't panic, you can do hot compress after 24 hours to promote the absorption of blood. The general small amount of congestion will gradually absorb in 3 to 5 days and the color will become lighter and return to normal. 2. After the blood draw, symptoms such as dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, etc. should be immediately supine, drink a small amount of syrup, and then undergo a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved.
