“…Our results showed no significant difference among age groups, which is in agreement with results reported by (Obaid, 2017) in Kirkuk and (Sero-Prevalence of TORCH, 2017) in Erbil, but disagree with results reported by a study done in Kerbala by (Hasan, 2011). Although cats are the definitive hosts that shed oocysts, statistically no significant difference was detected between persons who had contact with cats and those who had no contact with cats, in spite of high rate of infection was seen in persons that had contact with cats (25.7%) than those who had no contact with cats (24.2%) (Table 3), which might be due to the presence of many stray cats around the neighborhoods, this result is similar to studies done in Kirkuk by (Obaid, 2017), in Brazil by (Marques et al, 2008) and in Ethiopia by (Gelaye et al, 2015). In disagreement with our results was a study done by (Alrashada et al, 2016) in Saudi Arabia that detected a lower seropositivity in those who had contact with cats, and studies done by (Galván-Ramírez et al, 2010) in Mexico and by (Rahi and Jasim, 2011) in Kut city, that showed there was a relationship between the prevalence of the disease and contact with cats.…”
