Abstract

Objective: Bartonellosis is a global vector-borne zoonosis caused by Bartonella, a genus of intracellular Gram-negative bacteria. It is one of 14 emerging infectious diseases that have recently been identified in China, and the prevalence varies by region. A more in-depth understanding is needed regarding the role and influencing factors of ticks in the transmission of Bartonella, including the infection rate of ticks with Bartonella in different regions. This study explored the prevalence of Bartonella in ticks and the factors that influence it.

Methods: Databases (PubMed, Embase, Elsevier ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, CBM, and WanFang) were searched to review the preliminary research on Bartonella-carrying ticks in China.

Results: We identified and included 22 articles. Bartonella infection rates in ticks varied from 0 to 22.79% examined by the included studies. Our meta-analysis revealed that the prevalence of Bartonella in ticks was 3.15% (95% CI: 1.22 - 5.82%); the prevalence was higher in parasitic ticks (4.90%; 95% CI: 1.39 -10.14%) than ticks seeking hosts (1.42%; 95% CI: 0.62 - 2.50%) (P = 0.047).

Conclusion: The prevalence of Bartonella in the southern region of China (6.45%) was higher than that in the northern region (1.28%) (P = 0.030). Knowledge of ticks' vectors and reservoir competence is crucial to reduce the disease burden.

中国蜱虫感染巴顿氏菌的流行情况：综述与元分析》。

目的：巴顿氏菌病是由巴顿氏菌（一种细胞内革兰氏阴性菌属）引起的一种全球性病媒传染的人畜共患病。它是中国最近发现的 14 种新发传染病之一，不同地区的发病率也不尽相同。我们需要更深入地了解蜱虫在巴顿氏菌传播中的作用和影响因素，包括不同地区蜱虫感染巴顿氏菌的比率。本研究探讨了巴顿氏菌在蜱虫中的流行情况及其影响因素：方法：检索数据库（PubMed、Embase、Elsevier ScienceDirect、Cochrane Library、Web of Science、CNKI、VIP、CBM 和 WanFang），对中国携带巴顿氏菌的蜱虫进行初步研究：结果：我们发现并收录了 22 篇文章。纳入研究的蜱虫巴顿氏菌感染率从 0% 到 22.79% 不等。我们的荟萃分析表明，蜱虫的巴顿氏菌感染率为 3.15%（95% CI：1.22 - 5.82%）；寄生蜱的感染率（4.90%；95% CI：1.39 - 10.14%）高于寻找宿主的蜱虫（1.42%；95% CI：0.62 - 2.50%）（P = 0.047）：结论：中国南方地区的巴顿氏菌感染率（6.45%）高于北方地区（1.28%）（P = 0.030）。了解蜱虫的传播媒介和蓄积能力对减少疾病负担至关重要。

期刊介绍： Acta Parasitologica is an international journal covering the latest advances in the subject. Acta Parasitologica publishes original papers on all aspects of parasitology and host-parasite relationships, including the latest discoveries in biochemical and molecular biology of parasites, their physiology, morphology, taxonomy and ecology, as well as original research papers on immunology, pathology, and epidemiology of parasitic diseases in the context of medical, veterinary and biological sciences. The journal also publishes short research notes, invited review articles, book reviews. The journal was founded in 1953 as "Acta Parasitologica Polonica" by the Polish Parasitological Society and since 1954 has been published by W. Stefanski Institute of Parasitology of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. Since 1992 in has appeared as Acta Parasitologica in four issues per year.
