Enteroparasitism in Hard-to-Reach Community Dwellers: A Cross-Sectional Study in Ga West Municipality in Ghana

Table 6

Differences in haemoglobin, albumin levels, and BMI in categories of parasitism.

Nutritional indicator	Monoparasitism ()	Dual parasitism ()	Triple parasitism ()	value
Body mass index	20.3 kg/m^2	17.8 kg/m^2	24.5 kg/m^2	0.035
Haemoglobin concentration	9.8 g/dL	7.7 g/dL	10.7 g/dL	0.018
Albumin concentration	31.9 g/L	27.6 g/L	28.5 g/L	0.042

values were determined by a -test. Analysis determined differences in nutritional indicators in mono- and dual parasitism only excluding triple parasitism due to its single occurrence.
