Abstract

Purpose of review: In Argentina, there are five non-human primate (NHP) species: Sapajus nigritus cucullatus, Sapajus cay, Alouatta caraya, Alouatta guariba clamitans, and Aotus azarae. All of them inhabit protected and non-protected areas and face severe threats due anthropization. We aim to summarize the information available about parasites and infectious diseases of these NHPs and suggest further research on primate diseases in Argentina.

Recent findings: NHPs of Argentina are hosts of several parasites and pathogens important for conservation as well as public health. Alouatta species are lethally susceptible to yellow fever virus, which makes them suitable health sentinels of possible outbreaks. For other primate species, few parasite surveys have been carried out.

Summary: Assessing the presence of infectious diseases and long-term surveillance on NHP allow the development of strategies to help in the early detection of pathogens that may threat public health. Increasing the knowledge about parasites and infectious diseases and their consequences in NHP of Argentina is needed, considering a One Health approach.

阿根廷非人灵长类动物的寄生虫和其他传染因子。

综述目的:在阿根廷，有5种非人灵长类动物(NHP): Sapajus nigritus cucullatus、Sapajus cay、Alouatta caraya、Alouatta guariba clamitans和Aotus azarae。它们都生活在保护区和非保护区，由于人类活动而面临严重威胁。我们的目的是总结这些NHPs的寄生虫和传染病的现有信息，并建议在阿根廷进一步研究灵长类动物疾病。最近的发现:阿根廷的NHPs是几种寄生虫和病原体的宿主，对保护和公共卫生很重要。Alouatta物种对黄热病病毒具有致命易感性，这使它们成为可能爆发疫情的合适卫生哨兵。对于其他灵长类物种，很少进行寄生虫调查。摘要:评估传染病的存在和对非传染性疾病的长期监测有助于制定有助于早期发现可能威胁公共卫生的病原体的战略。考虑到“同一个健康”方针，需要在阿根廷的非传染性疾病中增加关于寄生虫和传染病及其后果的知识。

期刊介绍： Current Tropical Medicine Reports provides expert views on recent advances in the field of tropical medicine in a clear and readable form. This journal offers reviews by domestic and international contributors that highlight the most important, recent papers and findings related to this specific field. We accomplish this by appointing renowned leaders in major tropical medicine subject areas to select topics addressing virology, bacteriology, parasitology, entomology, immunology, cell and molecular biology, epidemiology, ecology, behavioral science and clinical medicine for review by experts who assess the latest developments and highlight significant papers published over the last few years on their topics. These review articles also stress recently published papers of importance in the references, which are accompanied by annotations explaining their importance. In addition to these Section Editors, our international Editorial Board ensures our journal upholds its standards.
