ABSTRACT
Fourty adult males with amaebiasis and a match control group of the same age and sex were subjected to complete blood examination. The results showed that the mean values for total serum protein, total serum bilirubin, A. L. P, and Hb% were within the acceptable limits i. e. statistically insignificant, whilst A. S. T. and A.L.T, were not within the acceptable limits, i. e. statistically insignificant, whilst A. S. T. and A. L. T. were not within the acceptable limits, i. e. statistically significant. The percentages of normals as regards the frequency distribution test were as follows Total serum protein [80%], total serum bilirubin [82. 5%], A. L. P. [94. 59%], A. S. T. [67. 5%], A. L. T. [75%] and Hb. [86. 21%]. The regression analysis test, confirmed by the correlation test, were performed to indicate the relationship between the intensity of infection [indicated by the population of E. histolytica in stool analysis] and the serum levels of the tests to follow. Accordingly the serum levels of A. L. P., A. S. T. and A. L. T. showed a relatively slight increase, while the total serum protein level and Hb% showed a slight decrease. The serum bilirubin indicated no change whatsoever
