Abstract

This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence and geographical distribution of Ehrlichia spp., Anaplasma spp., Borrelia burgdorferi and Dirofilaria immitis in dogs in Mexico, including owned dogs from veterinary clinics with regular medical care and shelter dogs. The Mexican territory was divided into eight geographical regions; 22 out of 32 states were included; 110 veterinary clinics and 53 dog shelters participated. SNAP® 4Dx Plus® (IDEXX® Laboratories) was used to detect antibodies against Ehrlichia spp., Anaplasma spp., Borrelia burgdorferi and Dirofilaria immitis antigens. A total of 3522 apparently healthy dogs were tested, 1648 from clinics and 1874 from shelters. The highest seroprevalence of infection/exposure was found for Ehrlichia spp. (30.9%), followed by Anaplasma spp. (14.6%), D. immitis (5.3%) and B. burgdorferi (0.1%). Significantly more positive dogs were older than 3 years. Regarding differences between facility types, there were only differences for D. immitis which was more prevalent in clinics than in shelters (OR ​= ​1.97; 95% CI: 1.45–2.69; P ​< ​0.0001). Co-infections were detected in 38.4% of the positive samples. Dogs from Mexican states located on the Atlantic and the Pacific coast were significantly more at risk for Ehrlichia spp. and Anaplasma spp. infections than dogs from interior states. Dogs in Atlantic coastal states were more at risk for Dirofilaria immitis infection.

墨西哥不同州诊所和狗收容所埃利希体、无形体、伯氏疏螺旋体和免疫Dirofilaria的血清流行率的地理分析
本研究旨在确定埃立克体属、无浆体属、伯氏疏螺旋体和狄氏疟原虫在墨西哥狗中的血清流行率和地理分布,包括来自兽医诊所的定期医疗护理犬和收容所犬。墨西哥领土被划分为八个地理区域;32个州中有22个州被纳入;110个兽医诊所和53个犬只收容所参加了活动。SNAP®4Dx Plus®(IDEXX®Laboratories)用于检测针对埃立克体属、无浆体属、伯氏疏螺旋体和狄氏疟原虫抗原的抗体。共对3522只看起来健康的狗进行了测试,其中1648只来自诊所,1874只来自收容所。感染/暴露的血清流行率最高的是埃立克体属(30.9%),其次是无浆体属(14.6%)、隐孢子虫属(5.3%)和伯氏菌属(0.1%)。明显更多的阳性犬年龄在3岁以上。关于设施类型之间的差异,只有在诊所比在收容所更普遍的D.immitis存在差异(OR​=​1.97;95%置信区间:1.45-2.69;P​<;​0.0001)。在38.4%的阳性样本中检测到共感染。来自大西洋和太平洋沿岸墨西哥各州的狗感染埃立克体属和无浆体属的风险明显高于内陆各州的狗。大西洋沿岸各州的狗感染狄氏疟的风险更大。
