The abstract provides a concise summary of the study's objective, methods, results, and conclusions. This comparative study aims to explore the relationship between interleukin-10 (IL-10), cholesterol, and blood glucose levels in geohelminth-positive adolescents and adults. Geohelminth infections are prevalent in this population, and understanding their impact on these variables could provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying immune response, lipid metabolism, and glucose regulation. A sample of geohelminth-positive individuals was selected, and IL-10, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels were measured. Statistical analyses were conducted to examine associations and correlations among these variables. The results will contribute to our understanding of the complex interplay between IL-10, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels in the context of geohelminth infections, potentially uncovering novel avenues for intervention and management of related health conditions.
