■野生动物代表着越来越重要的医学和兽医学病原体来源。野生动物监测提供了对选定病原体的当前流行病学状况的见解,并有助于防止对人类和牲畜的溢出。
■我们的研究包括312只野生反刍动物,它们属于五个物种:Roe鹿(n=134),马鹿(n=113),阿尔卑斯山羚羊(n=53),欧洲mouflon(n=10)和阿尔卑斯山(n=2)。使用血清学方法测试了可能对人/牲畜健康和农场经济可行性产生深远影响的七种病原体。
■抗弓形虫抗体,新孢子虫,伯内蒂柯西拉,布鲁氏菌属。,流产衣原体,鸟分枝杆菌亚种。检出副结核(MAP)和牛分枝杆菌占34.62%(108/312),0.96%(3/312),2.24%(7/312),0,0.96%(3/312),0,0.64%(2/312)的受试动物,分别。因为低流行率,仅评估弓形虫的危险因素.性别(雌性>雄性)和物种(ro鹿>马鹿,roe鹿>Alpinechomois)与弓形虫阳性结果显着相关,虽然年龄不是。
■成年男性的弓形虫患病率最低,这为未来的研究提供了机会。大多数调查病原体的血清阳性率较低,表明野味肉,如果煮熟,因为人类消费相对安全。这是第一项调查斯洛文尼亚野生反刍动物中某些病原体的血清阳性率和相关危险因素的研究。
UNASSIGNED: Wildlife represents an increasingly important source of pathogens of medical and veterinary importance. Surveillance in wildlife offers an insight on current epidemiological status of selected pathogens and help to prevent spillovers to humans and livestock.
UNASSIGNED: Our study included 312 wild ruminants belonging to five species: Roe deer (n = 134), red deer (n = 113), Alpine chamois (n = 53), European mouflon (n = 10) and Alpine ibex (n = 2). Seven pathogens that may have profound effect on human/livestock health and economic viability of the farms were tested using serological methods.
UNASSIGNED: Antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, Coxiella burnetii, Brucella spp., Chlamydophila abortus, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) and Mycobacterium bovis were detected in 34.62% (108/312), 0.96% (3/312), 2.24% (7/312), 0, 0.96% (3/312), 0, 0.64% (2/312) of animals tested, respectively. Because of low prevalences, risk factors were assessed only for T. gondii. Sex (female>male) and species (roe deer>red deer, roe deer>Alpine chamois) were significantly associated with the T. gondii positive outcome, while age was not.
UNASSIGNED: Adult males had the lowest T. gondii prevalence which offers future research opportunities. The lower seroprevalence of most investigated pathogens suggests game meat, if properly cooked, as being relatively safe for human consumption. This is the first study investigating the seroprevalence and associated risk factors of selected pathogens in wild ruminants in Slovenia.
