The Gran Chaco region is a known endemic area for Chagas’ disease, although no disease burden information for this region is available<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a>. This <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">T. cruzi</span> infection was detected in four of the studied communities with higher prevalence in the Wichi from the Gran Chaco region compared to previous studies in blood donors and pregnant women<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a>. The prevalence reported in 2003 (53.2%) and 2004 (57.2%) among the aborigines in Chaco was significantly higher to the one reported in this study in the same province (37.4%)<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a>. The same was observed in Formosa in 2009 where a prevalence rate of 48.28% in the aborigines was reported, being significantly higher to that reported here. In 2015, a prevalence of 21.4% in blood donors from Chaco was reported, being significantly lower compared to the results in this study. Despite the bias of population size, and the presumable decrease in the infection in this population due to public health efforts to eradicate the vector in endemic areas, there are no data confirming this trend and there is still a need to reinforce this initiative for controlling the infection. Our results are also in concordance with the prevalence reported in rural areas of other neighboring countries such as Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay, where the estimated numbers of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">T. cruzi</span> cases are particularly high.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this study, <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">T. cruzi</span> was not detected among the Mbyá-guaraní. This difference may be due to the geographic and climatic characteristics of this Eastern region and the effectiveness of the implemented measures, such as chemical treatment, vector surveillance, pregnancy controls, detection in newborns from infected mothers and blood bank control. The prevalence in Misiones is low and ranges from 2% in adults to 1.2% in children<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a>. This region which is inhabited by the Mbyá-guraní, was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) as being free of vectorial transmission in 2012. Although, the transmission of Chagas’ disease has demonstrated a second-generation congenital transmission route (from grandmother to mother to newborn) in vector-free areas. These data suggest that this route of transmission, other than classic vector-born spread, may occur both in endemic and non-endemic areas. In this context, a rapid screening test for <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">T. cruzi</span> infection in pregnant women would be useful in primary health care settings in order to provide a rapid diagnosis. Research about the risk of congenital <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">T. cruzi</span> infection and the effective detection of infected newborns (which is mandatory in Argentina) is also essential, as they must receive the anti-parasite treatment as soon as possible.</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study demonstrated the absence of HIV-1infection in these Amerindian populations probably due to the fact that most of the communities are still culturally isolated and have not acquired risky behaviors for HIV infection. It is important to highlight that the Mbyá-Guaraní settlement is only 5<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>km away from Puerto Iguazú, a highly visited city, and the increasing economic needs have slowly exposed them to risky behaviors such as injecting drug use, as reported by one of its members.</p><p id="par0095" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">On the contrary, the Kolla, despite residing in a very touristic place, strongly maintain their traditions and remain quite unaffected by the influence of urban behaviors, keeping and defending their cultural heritage. Moreover, the Wichi, live in extreme poverty, and have an almost inaccessible geographical location with very restricted interaction with other villages. The Sagua-Huarpe, despite residing close to the province capital city and having acquired the urban language and clothing, still maintain their own social organization and have minimal contact with its neighboring city. As reported in other South American countries, HIV has started to show its presence in the Amerindian populations and therefore, sooner or later, HIV-1 infection will become a problem for them<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a>.</p><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In summary, this study reveals a high rate of syphilis in the Amerindian communities of Misiones and Chagas’ disease in those of Chaco and Formosa. These results highlight the importance of designing and implementing an integral intervention program for the detection, clinical evaluation, treatment, control and prevention of these infections considering the cultural habits and socio-economic isolation of these communities. The health care system in these areas has to be strengthened and local personnel recruited, trained, and institutionalized.</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0025">Ethical responsibilities</span><span id="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0030">Protection of human and animal subjects</span><p id="par0105" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that the procedures followed were in accordance with the regulations of the relevant clinical research ethics committee and with those of the Code of Ethics of the World Medical Association (Declaration of Helsinki).</p></span><span id="sec0015" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0035">Confidentiality of data</span><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that no patient data appear in this article.</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">Right to privacy and informed consent</span><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors have obtained the written informed consent of the patients or subjects mentioned in the article.
