Abstract
Gastrointestinal blood loss was studied in six children with moderate to severe Trichuris infection in whom all other parasites had been eradicated. The children were maintained on a controlled diet. The results suggested that daily gastrointestinal blood loss is negligible in otherwise healthy children with heavy Trichuris infections.Keywords
