حاولنا من خلال هذه الدراسة المقارنة بين حساسية و نوعية اختبار شرائح rK39 و اختبار التـراص
المباشر في تقصي وجود داء الليشمانية الحشوي في بعض القرى الموبوءة في جنوب سـورية، و ذلـك
لاعتماد الاختبار الأفضل و الأسهل في الدراسات الوبائية كمؤشر لتقصي وجود هذا الداء ليس فقـط لـدى
الأشخاص العرضيين (يبدون أعراضاً مرضية) و إنما لدى الأشخاص اللاعرضيين (لا يبدون أي عـرض
مرضي) و المشكوك بهم عن طريق الكشف عن وجود الأضداد النوعية في مصولهم ليصار إلى معـالجتهم
بشكل سريع و مبكر.
In the present study, we tried to compare the sensitivity and the specificity
of the rK39 strips and DAT, to serodiagnose the visceral leishmaniasis disease
in some endemic villages in south of Syria, in order to apply the best and the
easy test in the epidemiological studies, for serodiagnosis this disease not only in
symptomatic patients but also in asymptomatic and suspected cases in order to
treat them early and rapidly.

The diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) remains problematic for
physicians in Syria, because the appearance of this disease is new and its
clinical criteria are similar to Malaria, Tuberculosis, and Toxoplasmosis
symptoms. For this reason, we

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is still one of the most important health
problems in Syria which witnessed increasing the numbers of
cutnaneous leishmaniasis reported, especially during the crisis ,Also
the direct microscopic examination of Giemsa-stained scrapings of
lesions is still a suitable method for diagnosis of cutaneous
leishmaniasis due to the low cost, ease of performance, speed, and
lack of a need for sophisticated laboratory equipment.
