Buonsenso D, Graffeo R, Scarlato L, et al. - In this retrospective study, researchers assessed the prevalence of intestinal parasitic infection (IPI) in a cohort of internationally adopted children and examined epidemiologic factors and clinical characteristics related to IPIs. Participants in the study were 584 internationally adopted children < 18 years old for which results from three fecal parasitologic tests were available, assessed between September 1, 2008, and April 31, 2018, at a tertiary level university hospital in Rome. According to results, intestinal parasites are a widespread infection among children adopted internationally, especially in children of school age and those from Latin America and Africa. Importantly, in most cases, the parasites found in adopted children were not pathogenic and did not cause significant changes in growth, major micronutrient deficits or malnutrition.
