Abstract：
Canine leishmaniasis is a widespread disease on the American continent, with cases reported from Uruguay to the USA and Canada. While numerous Leishmania spp. have been reported in dogs in this region, Leishmania infantum and Leishmania braziliensis are the most common etiological agents of canine leishmaniasis from a continental perspective. Nonetheless, other species may predominate locally in some countries. The participation of dogs in the transmission cycle of various Leishmania spp. has long been speculated, but evidence indicates that their role as reservoirs of species other than L. infantum is negligible. Various native wildlife (e.g., small rodents, marsupials, sloths, and monkeys) are, in fact, the primary hosts of Leishmania spp. in the Americas. In this review, an updated list of Leishmania spp. infecting dogs in the Americas is presented, along with their distribution and clinical and zoonotic importance.
摘要：
犬利什曼病是一种在美洲大陆广泛流行的疾病,从乌拉圭到美国和加拿大的病例报告。虽然众多利什曼原虫属。据报道，在这个地区的狗中，从大陆角度来看，婴儿利什曼原虫和巴西利什曼原虫是犬利什曼病最常见的病因。尽管如此，在某些国家，其他物种可能在当地占主导地位。犬参与各种利什曼原虫的传播周期。长期以来人们一直在猜测，但是有证据表明，它们作为婴儿乳球菌以外的物种的储库的作用可以忽略不计。各种本地野生动物(例如，小型啮齿动物,有袋动物,树懒,和猴子)是，事实上,利什曼原虫的主要宿主。在美洲。在这次审查中,利什曼原虫的最新名单.介绍了在美洲感染狗的情况，以及它们的分布以及临床和人畜共患的重要性。
