Abstract
Objective: This joint protocol describes two scoping reviews that will identify and describe evidence for climate sensitivity of companion animal zoonotic diseases in cat, dog, and human populations worldwide.
Introduction: Climate change is a driver for emerging and re-emerging zoonotic diseases of global health concern. Companion animals can transmit over 70 zoonotic pathogens, some of which are sensitive to changes in meteorological factors. There is disparate evidence in our understanding of climate-sensitive companion animal zoonotic diseases.
Inclusion criteria: Primary research articles that describe 1) an association or effect between meteorological factors and the risk of zoonotic disease, 2) the presence of spatiotemporal variations in disease incidence or prevalence, or 3) the projected impacts of climate emission scenarios on disease trends will be included.
Methods: A comprehensive search strategy was developed using index terms and keywords for populations of interest, companion animal zoonotic diseases, and meteorological factors. Articles will be searched on MEDLINE (via Ovid), AGRICOLA (via ProQuest), and Web of Science. Additional articles will be identified using citation tracking. Independent reviewers will systematically apply a two-step study screening process based on defined eligibility criteria. Key study characteristics and findings will be collated and presented as a descriptive summary using graphical and tabular formats.
Review registration: Two separate protocols have been registered in Open Science Framework. The first review consolidates evidence in cat and dog populations (https://osf.io/ydgc2), while the second review is focused on human populations (https://osf.io/3cvx2).
目的:本联合协议描述了两项范围审查,将确定和描述全球猫、狗和人类伴侣动物人畜共患疾病气候敏感性的证据。导言:气候变化是引起全球卫生关注的新出现和再出现的人畜共患疾病的驱动因素。伴侣动物可以传播70多种人畜共患病原体,其中一些对气象因素的变化很敏感。在我们对气候敏感的伴侣动物人畜共患疾病的理解中,有不同的证据。纳入标准:描述1)气象因素与人畜共患疾病风险之间的关联或影响,2)疾病发病率或流行率存在时空变化,或3)气候排放情景对疾病趋势的预测影响的初步研究文章将被纳入。方法:利用感兴趣的人群、伴侣动物人畜共患疾病和气象因素的索引术语和关键词制定综合搜索策略。文章将在MEDLINE(通过Ovid), AGRICOLA(通过ProQuest)和Web of Science上搜索。其他文章将使用引文跟踪来识别。独立审稿人将系统地应用基于确定的资格标准的两步研究筛选过程。将整理研究的主要特点和发现,并以图形和表格格式作为描述性摘要提出。审查注册:两个独立的协议已在开放科学框架中注册。第一次审查巩固了猫和狗种群的证据(https://osf.io/ydgc2),而第二次审查侧重于人类种群(https://osf.io/3cvx2)。
