Asymptomatic Malaria and Other Infectionsin Children Adopted from Ethiopia,United States, 2006–2011Senait M. Adebo, Judith K. Eckerle,Mary E. Andrews, Cynthia R. Howard,Chandy C. JohnWe screened 52 children adopted from Ethiopia for malariabecause they had previously lived in a disease-endemic regionor had past or current hepatomegaly or splenomegaly.Seven (13.5%) children had asymptomatic malaria parasitemiaby microscopy (n = 2) or PCR (n = 5). Our findingssuggest that adoptees at risk for asymptomatic malariashould be screened, preferably by PCR.International adoptees are at increased risk for infectiousdiseases (1). During 2007–2012, Ethiopia was 1 of thetop 5 countries of origin for children who were adoptedby persons in the United States (2), but few studies havebeen published on children from Ethiopia who were adoptedby persons in the United States (3). Malaria causedby Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, and, less frequently,P. ovale is endemic to several regions in Ethiopia (4). Childrenadopted from Ethiopia are often living in orphanagesin Addis Ababa, an area free of malaria, at the time of theiradoption, but they may have lived in a malaria-endemicarea before their transfer to the orphanage. The prevalenceof asymptomatic malaria parasitemia among these childrenis not known.The StudyWe reviewed medical records of all children adopted fromEthiopia and seen at the University of Minnesota InternationalAdoption Clinic (Minneapolis, MN, USA) duringFebruary 2006–June 2011 for results of standard infectiousdisease screening tests recommended by the AmericanAcademy of Pediatrics: tuberculosis (by tuberculin skintest or, in children >5 years old, by interferon-g release assay);intestinal parasites (fecal testing for ova, parasites,and Giardia intestinalis antigen); hepatitis B or C virus;HIV; and syphilis (5). Children were screened for hepatitisA virus at the discretion of the physician seeing the patientAuthor affiliations: Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA (S.M.

John)DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3201/eid2107.141933and for malaria by blood smear or PCR if they met screeningcriteria (i.e., history of living in a malaria-endemic regionor a history of or current evidence of splenomegalyor hepatomegaly). The study was reviewed and approvedby the University of Minnesota Institutional Review Board.During the period studied, 255 international adopteesfrom Ethiopia were seen at the clinic. Adoptees’ mean ageat medical evaluation was 2.8 years (range 3.4 months–14.9years); 148 (58%) were female and 107 (41.9%) were male.All 255 children were asymptomatic for malaria, but 52met malaria screening criteria and were tested by peripheralblood smear (n = 24), PCR (n = 24), or both (n = 4). Ofthe 52 children, 7 (13.5%) had blood smear (2 children) orPCR (5 children) results positive for Plasmodium species.Table 1 outlines the sensitivity, specificity, and negativeand positive predictive values of medical history questionsand physical exam signs for asymptomatic malaria. The2 children with a positive blood smears had low parasitedensities (
