Study can help improve the clinical handling of giardiasis cases Researchers from the degree in medicine of the CEU Cardenal Herrera (CEU UCH) of Castellón, in collaboration with the Paediatrics and Microbiology Departments of the University Hospital of La Plana in Villarreal, have conducted an observational study of the cases of giardiasis among children under 15 diagnosed between 2012 and 2019 in the Departamento 3 de Salud records of Castellón province. The results of this study have been published in Anales de Pediatría, the journal of the Spanish medical association in this field. Its conclusions can help improve the clinical handling of the cases of this gastrointestinal parasitosis, which causes diarrhoea and abdominal pain, thus decreasing the possibility that these patients may worsen and prevent hospitalisation.
