Routine health data were retrospectively extracted from electronic health records of the primary care centres. The proportion of cases among individuals tested for each infection was estimated with its 95% confident interval (CI). Mixed\u2010effects logistics regression models were conducted to assess any possible association between the exposure variables and the primary outcome.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>Out of the 15,780 migrants that attended primary care centres, 2410 individuals were tested for at least one infection. Of the 508 (21.1%) migrants diagnosed with at least one condition, a higher proportion originated from Sub\u2010Saharan Africa (207, 40.7%), followed by South\u2010East Europe (117, 23.0%) and Latin\u2010America (88, 17.3%; p<\/jats:italic> value <0.001). The proportion of migrants diagnosed with Chagas disease was 5\/122 (4.1%, 95%CI 0.5\u20137.7), for strongyloidiasis 56\/409 (13.7%, 95%CI 10.3\u201317.0) and for schistosomiasis 2\/101 (2.0%, 95%CI 0.0\u20134.7) with very few cases tested. The estimated proportion for human immunodeficiency virus was 67\/1176 (5.7%, 95%CI 4.4\u20137.0); 377\/1478 (25.5%, 95%CI 23.3\u201327.7) for hepatitis B virus, with 108\/1478 (7.3%, 95%CI 6.0\u20138.6) of them presenting an active infection, while 31\/1433 (2.2%, 95%CI 1.4\u20132.9) were diagnosed with hepatitis C virus. One case of active tuberculosis was diagnosed after testing 172 migrant patients (0.6%, 95%CI 0.0\u20131.7).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>We estimated a high proportion of the studied infections in migrants from endemic areas.
