Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the trend of research on clonorchis sinensis in Korea. Method: The study design was a literature analysis in which research studies with ‘Clonorchis’ in the title were collected from 2001 to 2007. A total of 115 research studies were analyzed based on the year of publication, study design, major or institute of researcher, study sample, and research theme. Results: 10-19% of the research studies were published each year from 2001 to 2007. Experimental study design was the most frequent at 54.8%. Medicine or parasitology as the major of researchers were 43.2% and 41.2% retrospectively, but no nursing studies were found. For study samples, 65.9% were cyst larvae and animals, followed by human beings (29.5%). In research theme, the structure and gene analysis of clonorchis sinensis was the most frequent (32.1%), followed by animal experimental studies (15.7%), epidemic studies of clonorchis sinensis prevalence and changes (13.0%), and methods of diagnosis of clonorchis sinensis and effectiveness (12.2%). Conclusion: Although positive rate of clonorchis sinensis is still high, intervention studies for managing clonorchis sinensis were not found. So, methodological research developing clonorchis sinensis management program and intervention study is needed for high risk groups in rural communities.
