title: [Detecting effect comparison between MPAIA, DDIA and IHA for screening advanced schistosomiasis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the effects of the magnetic particle antibody immunoassay (MPAIA), dipstick dye immunoassay (DDIA) and indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), on detecting advanced schistosomiasis.
  
  
  METHODS
  The sera of 224 cases of advanced schistosomiasis were detected by MPAIA, DDIA, and IHA, and the positive rates were compared.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The positive rates of MPAIA, DDIA and IHA, were 67.14%, 14.29% and 16.52%, respectively,the positive coincidence rate of MPAIA is higher than the one of IHA and DDIA.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The value of MPAIA is higher than that of DDIA or IHA in screening advanced schistosomiasis.
