The serum levels of Zn, Se and Cu of thecases and controls were detected. The resultsshowed that most echinococciasis cases weredistributed in Shiqu county (17.1%, 7/41), and only1 case was distributed in Yajiang county (2.4%). Themale to female ratio of the cases was 1:1.56. Theechinococciasis patients were mainly aged 30-39years (36.59%, 15/41). And, the cases aged 20-49years accounted for 68.29% (28/41). Comparedwith health controls, the serum levels of Zn and Seof the cases significantly declined. However, theserum level of Cu of the cases had no significantlychange. It was confirmed that the serum levels ofZn and Se were interrelated with the prevalence ofechinococciasis.展开更多
