Fatores de risco associados à ocorrência de anticorpos anti-Leptospira spp. em cães do município de Monte Negro, Rondônia, Amazônia Ocidental Brasileira

Abstract: Foram testados, pela técnica de soroaglutinação microscópica aplicada à leptospirose, 329 cães provenientes do município de Monte Negro, RO, dos quais 156 eram da área urbana e 173 da área rural. Simultaneamente foi aplicado questionário para verificar a existência de possíveis fatores de risco pela regressão logística. Abordaram-se questões referentes a idade, sexo, dieta, tipo de criação, ambiente, contato com outras espécies e hábito de caça. Foram detectadas reações com títulos >100 em 27,3%, com 90 cãe… Show more

“…This outcome supports the recommendation of combined use of MAT and PCR for a more efficient diagnosis of leptospirosis (OTAKA et al, 2013). The present study reported a lower prevalence of seroreactive animals than that observed in other Brazilian regions, such as 34.3% in the South (HERRMANN et al, 2004), 47.4% in the Southeast (MARTINS et al, 2012), and 33.3% in the North (AGUIAR et al, 2010). However, this prevalence was comparable to those reported in studies conducted in the semiarid region of northeast Brazil, which varied from 3.5% in Rio Grande do Norte (AZEVEDO et al, 2004) to 5.4% and 8.2% in Paraiba (ALVES et al, 2012;COSTA et al, 2016).…”

“…28 Segundo Fávero et al 10 , a presença do sorovar Icterohaemorrhagiae sugere a participação de roedores sinantrópicos. O sorovar Autumnalis também foi detectado nas propriedades estudadas, em bovinos, suínos, cães e humanos 11,28,29,30 , entretanto ainda são poucas as informações epidemiológicas a respeito desse sorovar em outras regiões do país.…”

“…In addition, canine leptospirosis in Curitiba and the surrounding areas has also been shown to be highly endemic. Although the seroprevalence of canine leptospirosis has been extensively studied and demonstrated throughout Brazilian territory [3][4][5] , no leptospirosis incidence studies have been conducted in dogs. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to examine the prevalence, incidence and risk factors of leptospirosis in the metropolitan region of Curitiba-PR, Southern Brazil.…”
