Vitamin D Estimation With Giardia Lamblia Infections

• Conditions: Giardia Lamblia Infection

• Registration Number: NCT04778280
• Lead Sponsor: Sohag University

Brief Summary

investigators will take stool and blood samples from two groups of humans :-

1-group A (healthy group negative Giardia or control group),2-group B (positive Giardia or case group)then investigators make estimation for vitamin D in both groups then investigators try to find if there is relation between vitamin D level and Giardia lamblia infections

Detailed Description

In this research a case- control study will be used) ,the percentage of case to control will be 1:1 the total number of samples 192 ,investigators will take stool and blood samples from two groups of humans :-

1-group A (healthy group negative Giardia or control group),2-group B (positive Giardia or case group)then investigators make estimation for vitamin D in both groups then investigators try to find if there is relation between vitamin D level and Giardia lamblia infections
